A to Z Challenges 2009

2010 UPDATE: looks like I didn't make it but I'll start another for 2010.

Another popular reading challenge is the A to Z Challenge - read a book in 2009 that starts with each letter in the alphabet, or by an author whose last name starts with each letter of the alphabet.

I'll try one of each for 2009.
