Joy’s new alphabet challenge for 2024

Thought I’d start a new alphabet challenge in 2024 and see how far I can get. If I manage to complete the challenge in a year, that means I’ll read at least 26 books. Not a huge number, but way better than the dozen I read in 2023.

Challenge runs from January 1 to December 31, 2024. I’ll be using authors’ names and (oddly enough) I’ve started out the year with A, B and C.

A ... Paul Auster. The New York Trilogy (1985-1986)
B ... Christianna Brand. Heads You Lose (Inspector Cockrill #1; 1941)
C ... Agatha Christie. Peril at End House (Hercule Poirot #8; 1932)
D ... E.L. Doctorow. World's Fair: A Novel (1985)
E ...
F ... Gemma Files. Experimental Film (2015)
G ... Chris Grabenstein. Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library (2013)
