Darcy, you are a reading machine :)

Yeah, she is! Go Darcy! You're amazing.

Thanks ladies! I feel like I'm not reading much lately. lol

Lol I was looking at Darcy's list and I'm like 'wait what are all these extra names' turns out I did the challenge wrong. Ah well, well correct when I wake.

Psh!

Now your comments about not using the same books make sense. A-Z books are harder than the characters. lol

I could see how that could be so however I don't remember the character names in Saga so hmm. Maybe I can look it up or take it off and try to use it for another challenge.

When that happens I look at my review or others. There is always someone who calls out the characters by name.

Oh, also maybe someone added the name of the characters to the goodreads page. Should be just below the book pages and publisher info.

Woe your almost done! gooooooo!

I got lazy :(. Well kind of. I've been avoiding watching Dances with Wolves for class by watching seasons on Amazon. :)

Yeah, Darcy. You're amazing! Man you're making me feel bad about my other challenges. ^_-

@ Chakara & Shera - You guys will get there! I have faith in you!!

It helps that I don't really watch tv, so no distractions from reading for me.

Chakara, I think once you watch Dances with Wolves you will like it, it's a good one.

I think I would like it more if I wasn't being forced to watch a 3 hour movie that I don't feel is my cup-a and then write about it for a grade.

Chakara wrote: "I think I would like it more if I wasn't being forced to watch a 3 hour movie that I don't feel is my cup-a and then write about it for a grade."

It does start slow.

See that's my problem, too much TV. I've really started cutting back. Which makes me feel guilty since I'm mod for a TV group!

Shera (Book Whispers) wrote: "See that's my problem, too much TV. I've really started cutting back. Which makes me feel guilty since I'm mod for a TV group!"

I wouldn't feel bad about watching tv, if it is something you like, then great.

My issue is I need to find an equal balance for the two.

Well, I've gotten to my 25, but I'm determined to find that last elusive letter, Q.

Good luck!

Shera (Book Whispers) wrote: "Good luck!"

Thanks! Usually Q isn't that hard, lots of Quinn's, just can't seem to find it. I did give out a yell when I found my U tonight, that one is hard.

He-he!! U is the first one, and only one, I've got up there!

Shera (Book Whispers) wrote: "He-he!! U is the first one, and only one, I've got up there!"

I saw that and laughed because U is usually a hard one to find.

Ha-ha!! Thank you! Thank you! I actually almost used it for another challenge. Thankfully I remembered I still have to do this one too. >_<

I finally found my Q, so I'm done with this one.

Yeah!!

Hey, Heather. Could "Queen" work? I know it's more of a title than a name. ^_-

It's more of a title. Tell you what...hang on to that one. If you don't find one before December then go for it. =)

It hit me I could use Quinn! I think there's two series I'm reading that use that name!

Ooooooo guys! I'm really doing it! I think only Y and Q are left for the really hard ones.

Crap on a cracker. I forgot all about this challenge.

Tya wrote: "Crap on a cracker. I forgot all about this challenge."

Don't worry! This one is easy to go back and fit books in. Well . . . you may not be able to remember side character names to use.

Two more letters and I'll have the entire alphabet!

Yeah Shera!

This will be the first A to Z challenge I have ever finished! Oh the excitement!

All I need is the darn Y now!!!

Take a look at what others have so far.

Great idea thanks!

I feel stupid.

When I was petting my cat I was thinking about how I wish I could find a character with her name, Yuki.

Duh, I've been planning to reread and finish one of my favorite mangas that just so happens to have a lead with that name. Which had helped inspire me to call my cat Yuki.

Not stupid at all Shera. I do things like that all the time.

It seems to be happening more often. Though it's probably because I've been tired.

BOOM!

My first A to Z challenged finished!

It was crazy I was debating with whether a god that had a name that started with a Y would count. When it hit me that the first book had multiple Y names! 4 of them all on the same page!

Ha-ha! Just in the nick of time.
