Here comes another reading challenge from yours truly! This one is an ABC challenge. Read at least 5 issues of a title starting with each letter of the alphabet (if available in the library). Yes, all 26 letters if they are there! You get to decide what title from that letter. Just trying out another challenge. This one requires you to edit your post to show what you read in each letter! Look forward to seeing anyone that takes up this challenge.
I’ll try it, I bookmark this topic and Start with A! What a fun idea, @PrincessAmethyst! I’ll let you know what letter I’m on and what book I read.

I had read 5 issues in the original posting, but feel free to read as much or as little as you like for this. The important thing is to get you reading more comics! Just let us know what title and issues for each letter because we wanna see what everyone is reading! Loving seeing the varied reading alphabet of participants so far!

@PrincessAmethyst this is a really great And fun idea. And yes, love everyone’s choices.
I just hope there isn’t an edit limit on posts for updating our reading logs, we still have 11 months to go.

I’ve updated mine every day since the 6th…
You’d think that if there were a limit I’d have hit it by now.
And I’m thinking I’ll just do a new list each month each beginning with a tally of the previous months. A single list would be looooooooooooooooooooooooooong!
