Dana (erato) Yeah to Amy~Lover of Books~ for suggesting this!



This is a word spelling reading challenge where you spell out each of the days of the week.

You may use the first letter of the book's title (excluding a, an, the), OR you may use either the first or last initial of the author.

You may use up to 4 rereads as long as the entire book is read again completely.

Read one bonus book that has a day of the week OR the word 'week' OR the word 'weekend' in the title.

Duration: One year from date of start.

Number of books: 51


Amy ~Lover of Books~ | 675 comments Yay! Thanks for setting up this up for me!


message 3: by Dana (new)

Dana (erato) You bet! Thanks for the idea. I'm hoping I can participate in this one too!


Dawn (Kat N Hat) (katnhat) Looks fun but I bet those "y" books get hard to find by the end. I'll give it a go anyway.

I was noticing that myself. I have exactly 1 title (currently) starting with the word "Your's", and 4 books by authors with a Y in the names -- here's hoping I like the authors' writing styles.

I'll give it a try. Not sure when I'll officially start. Probably wait until after Bingo wraps up. :D

I've had some luck cross-challenging Bingo books. ;-) But I agree, it can be hard. I haven't even checked if my current read for Bingo fits the Jim Henson challenge (probably not -- but I'll still check).

I was holding off on this one too for that reason and others but I had an idea and I thought I would share it. Since 'day' is part of them all, I am going to choose 3 different series where either the author's first or last name satisfies 'd', 'a', or 'y'. It will ge me through some series I am interested in, and keep me from loosing my mind looking for the same letter over and over.

Suggestion for 'y': I'll be reading The Sisters of the Moon by Yasmine Galenorn. There are 9 books currently (with another to be published in Nov. and the 12th in Feb) so there are plenty for the challenge. :) The author name is a great way to meet the 'day' part of the challenge! :)


Amy ~Lover of Books~ | 675 comments I'm currently reading a book that has an Y in the title and I have another book from the library that also has an Y in the title too I got last week.

That's a great idea! I have the first book in Galenorn's series. If I like her, then it will solve my problem. :-)

I think I will use the Midnight Breed series for the "A" in day. I've already read the first two, so this will help me get caught up!

Dana (erato) Welcome Laurie!

@ Babbling: That is perfect! Midnight Breed will work great for me too! I have read the first two and even have the third scheduled for another challenge this month. WHOOT! Thanks for the suggestion. :)

You're welcome! I'm using some of the s's to get caught up with the Psy-Changeling. I've spent the last few hours looking slotting books into spots (I got about half -- I could have filled all (except the ys), but I'm leaving some open for cross-challenge books.


Christina (AKA Babbling) (babblingbookreviews) | 415 comments ❥☪LIZZ NEILL☪❥ wrote: "i'm hoping my bingo book for this week fits any of my challenges . . ."

I looked at what you're reading for Bingo -- are you doing the Genre Juice Challenge at SOS? Your book is about a witch, yes? It fits all three categories. ;-) It's an urban fantasy, it features a witch (if that's what she is), and one of the cover choices is a woman. ;-)

Mine will also fit the cover choice for that challenge (it also fits for Mr. Snuffy on the Henson challenge -- she doesn't know a whole lot about her family/past).

Dana doesn't say... but I would think so. Were you thinking of Life of Pi by Yann Martel ?


message 43: by Dana (new)

Dana (erato) You can use up to 4 rereads as long as you actually read them again. :)

I'll add that to the rules, thanks for the question.
