Wacky Reading Challenges - Character Names, A-Z

Character Names, A-Z  hosted by Wacky Reading Challenges on Goodreads.

Character Challenge, A-Z
Date: 09/01/15 - 08/31/16

Continuing in our A-Z challenges, for our next yearly challenge we will focus on character names.

Using the first letter of a main character's first OR last name, working through the alphabet, read a book for each corresponding letter. If a main character goes by initials in place of a first name (i.e. A.J. Colten), you are welcome to use the first initial.

With the hard letters Q,X,Y and Z, you are welcome to use a name that contains the letter - it does not have to be the first letter.

Example:
A = Abby Davis - Worth the Fall
B = Bess Crawford - An Unwilling Accomplice
C = Cormoran Strike - The Silkworm
D = Nate Dean - Blind Faith

Challenge Rules:
Books should be at least 125 pages. All formats are acceptable (ebook, audio, hard back, paperback, etc). Re-reads are fine--just be sure to re-read the entire book. When updating your challenge with books you've read, please include a link to the book title, make mention of the author's name, and note the date you finished reading the book.
