Crazy for Young Adult Books discussion

Duration: January 1 to December 31, 2015
Number of Books: 26

Guidelines:
- Read one book for every alphabet
- You can read in any order you wish
- The articles “a”, “an” & “the” are not counted as part of the title
- You can only use one way to complete the challenge
- Any books are acceptable: young adult, new adult or adult books. However, since we are a young adult group, you are encouraged to read as many young adult books as possible.

Pick Your Poison: Choose how you are going to read for this challenge

A. Title: the first letter in the title of the books (not the title of the series) should correspond to a letter in the alphabet. Letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anywhere in the title.
e.g.:

C: The Conspiracy of Us
...

B. Author: the first letter in the author’s name (first or last) should correspond to a letter in the alphabet. Letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anywhere in the author’s name.
e.g.: "Last Names"

A: Madelyn Alt: In Charm's Way
B: Holly Black: The Darkest Part of the Forest
C: Kresley Cole: Dead of Winter
...

C. Character: the first letter in the main character’s name (first or last) should correspond to a letter in the alphabet. Letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anywhere in the character’s name.
e.g.:

A: August: Wonder
B: Braden: On Dublin Street
C: Chris: Breathless
...

D. Series: the first letter in the title of the series should correspond to a letter in the alphabet. Letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anywhere in title of the series.
e.g.:

B: Bloodlines #6: The Ruby Circle
C: The Coincidence #7: Seth & Greyson
...

E. Cover: use the cover for A-Z and as for the hard litters Q, X, Y, and Z you can use any cover you like.
e.g.:

A: Apple :
B: Blood :
C: Crow :
...

F. Friend: use your GR friends’ first name to complete this challenge. Read the books in their shelves (TBR is preferred, but any shelves will do). Letters Q, X and Z can be positioned anyway in their names.
e.g.:

A: Angel: When You Were Here
B: Britney: Finding Cinderella
C: Claire: On the Fence
...

Done reading:

I'm in! I try every year and I get halfway finished before the year is up! But this year should be different - I graduate college for good in April, so after that I will have plenty of free time to leisure read. The first year I participated I did titles, last year I did authors. This year, I'm going to try characters!

I have two big bins of books I haven't read yet, and I have a lengthy list of titles that I want to re-read. I'll post some options when I figure it out :)
