The Seasonal Reading Challenge discussion

15.3. October 28 is Frankenstein Day!

Option 1: Two books:
Book A – read a book whose author’s name matches either the first or last name of one of the actors who played Frankenstein Frankenstein actors. Names must match exactly, but need not appear in the same position - for instance, the author Walker Percy would work for the actor Percy Standing.
REQUIRED: Include the name of the actor in your post.

AND

Book B – read a book in which the first letter of each word in the title can be found in FRANKENSTEIN. Subtitles may be ignored.

OR

Option 2 – read one book that fits both A and B from option 1.

Can the book title be just one word?

yes

I was wondering if we could consider authors' middle names as well?
Ex. David in Gregory David Roberts?

Great! Thanks!!

Would something like NYPD Red by James Patterson work for Option 2? My concern is whether NYPD works since it's an abbreviation.

Kevin James is the actor name I'm matching.

Thanks in advance.

yes, that will work.

Title - can it be same letter for more than one word for instance The Fragile Flower Charles (author) and TFF all in frankenstein

letters can only be used as many times as they appear in Frankenstein.

Just want to be sure that the hyphen makes Ex-debutante one word

For Book B - 1st letter of each word in FRANKENSTEIN - T E The Ex-Debutante

yes, a hyphenated word is one word.
