I haven't done this challenge in age but I think I will try and remember to do it every month from now on. I might need to get Lu to remind me though I really am a ditz!

Just like you haven't updated the series madness challenge in months. Even though you might win that one if you did. :)
My reading this month has been fairly eclectic, so here is a non-fiction version done:
H - Stones Against the Mirror: Friendship in the Time of the South African Struggle by Hugh Lewin
A - The Aye-Aye and I: A Rescue Mission in Madagascar
M - The Great Hedge of India: The Search for the Living Barrier that Divided a People by Roy Moxham
H - Stones Against the Mirror: Friendship in the Time of the South African Struggle by Hugh Lewin
A - The Aye-Aye and I: A Rescue Mission in Madagascar
M - The Great Hedge of India: The Search for the Living Barrier that Divided a People by Roy Moxham
The challenge asks for books not novels, so anything is allowed. I myself have read some strange books for challenges. :)
Congrats!

I'm glad since probably about a third of the books that I read are non-fiction so I need them to fit in all over the place. I have read a pile of them for the Mzanzi challenge as well. Still a few to go there.

Just read the challenges and tasks carefully. Most will ask for a book. So that can mean any book. Fiction, non-fiction, etc. It might even be the dictionary. :) As long as you read it cover to cover. Of course some tasks will ask for a novel and sometimes even a specific genre. If you need help looking for loop holes in tasks just ask me or one of the Laurens (F or S). We are real good in finding loop holes. :D

Use the books you finish in August to fill out the word, using the first letter of the first word in the title (excluding 'the', 'a' or 'an') or the first letter of the author's name, middle name or surname.
Good luck everyone!
