I saw this on 3Ms site and I'm taking the liberty to borrow the idea. This is a personal challenge for me to be completed by December 31st. Hopefully it will also help me tackle the overly large TBR pile and encourage me to read the ones nearer the back rather than just the ones brought recently. I'm going to try and stick to this list and try and read it in order as much as possible around my other challenges and book group reads. If any one has any inspiration for Q I'd be glad to hear it.

I'm stuck for Q as well, but some Z suggestions include: Paul Zindel(he writes YA), I've seen everyone reading Marcus Zusak's The Book Thief (I'll get to it someday) or Carlos Ruiz Zafon's The Shadow of the Wind, a Spanish mystery which I really liked.
Thanks for the suggestions.I really liked The Shadow of the wind as well, The Book Thief is on a list of books to buy but I'm waiting for it to come out, the Zephaniah book is in a pile somewhere in the house waiting to be read I just couldn't remember the title - doh!
