Nora Roberts Groupies discussion

We received a recommendation to create quarterly challenges and thought it was a great idea (thank you, Robin!). The Spell it Out challenges seem to be popular so we thought we’d start with that in 2021 but tailor it to Nora’s Book List instead of a theme.

We will begin with her list of trilogies, which you can find on our Series Book List. Instructions are below.

Winter Quarterly Spell it Out Challenge - Pick a Trilogy
1. Select one of Nora’s trilogies to choose a word in one of the titles to spell out.
2. The word must have a minimum of four letters.
3. Read a book where the title or the author’s name (first or last) begins with the first letter of the word you selected for every letter in your selected trilogy word.
4. Skip prepositions such as “the,” and “a” in a book title.

Copy and paste the template below. Create your own Challenge and update it as necessary.
