I used
for X on an other challenge. The series is Xenogenesis. Haven't read it yet.
Thanks Amber and Athena! That's going to be very helpful!
You're welcome Zita! I hope you find an X title you like. :)
I'm in, but unsure how to keep updating my list.
Hi Susan, There is an edit button at the bottom right of your message. You can use the message (29) that you just wrote. Start by adding the letters from A-Z and then anytime you want to add a book, just click edit to make the necessary changes.
Some like to add books only as they finish them, others add all the books they will read and check or strikethrough them as they are completed. It's totally up to you which method you use.
Book links are handy if you're accessing using a computer (the add book/author isn't available on the app) so if anyone else is interested in finding out more information about a book you've read they can easily access the details.
Read the alphabet!This looks like fun!
