The Bookworm Challenge discussion

Our 2nd place prize winner, Lisa, has chosen "letters of FATHER in the title" as a challenge. Here is an explanation of her choice.

Last year was tough on my heart. My 92-year-old father passed away in August. I developed my love of reading, especially mysteries, because of him. To pay tribute to him and all fathers, read books where all the letters of FATHER can be found in the title.

Example:
All the Colors of the Dark
all the colors oF THE dARk

Congratulations again, Lisa!
