My Blog’s Name in Books

May3

I saw this first done by Lisa at ANZLitlovers, then by Bev at My Reader’s Block and Karen at Booker Talk. It originated with Fictionophile.

*Spell out you blog’s name using books from your TBR that begin with each letter.
*No adding books from other sources.
*Have fun.

Pressed for time, I decided to use my Kindle TBR ‘shelf’, and limit myself to fiction that wasn’t a mystery. I nearly succeeded, needing to include a cozy mystery title for that elusive “X”.

E The Elephant’s Journey by Jose Saramago

X An eXhibit of Madness by Kerry J. Charles (#1 in the Dulcie Chambers Museum Mystery series)

U Us by David Nicholls

R The Red Notebook by Antoine Laurain

B Boys and Girls Together by William Goldman

A Alice Adams by Booth Tarkington

N News of the World by Paulette Jiles

I The Illegal by Lawrence Hill

S Swans of Fifth Avenue by Melanie Benjamin

 

It looks like I have good reading to take on vaction with me this year without carrying paper books. What’s on your ereader?

    I had seen this around at other blogs but did not realize that it was limited to the TBR pile. That would not be a problem for me because I have so many unread books, but the title of my blog is so long I have not considered trying it.

    I agree, Tracy – it would be a challenge!

    Yes, I’ve decided not to do it too, partly because of the length of my blog name. (Can you imagine “booksaremyfavouriteandbest” doing it! (Though I would certainly have the books to choose from!!)

    However, I’m enjoying seeing other blog responses, and enjoyed yours Debbie.

    It’s always fun, I think, Sue, to see what’s on other readers’ TBR shelves!
