Re: Reading the Alphabet
Thank you, Jackie. I had to get organized somehow. It helps me to look for upcoming "letter" books online at the library.
A wonderful side effect of this is I'm using the county's online library a lot. The Libby app is way better than Overdrive was, which helps a great deal with making using the library easier.

Re: Reading the Alphabet
Read "O" One Final Step. I will need to come back and edit for the author as I have forgotten.
I am on "P" right now and pretty sure that I have read this one before. Oh well, I was bound to do so sooner or later. In fact, I am going to be searching my bookshelves for "Q" at some point today.

Re: Reading the Alphabet
Read the K book today: The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan, which is a wonderful little novel about a World War II British cooking contest.

Re: Reading the Alphabet
I have not been reading along the alphabet, but rather I read whatever looks fascinating. However, I do have to thank all of you for listing the books you've been reading, as you are giving me great ideas for future reading.
Re: Reading the Alphabet
Missed "Q" until I can rummage through the bookshelves with ease. I have started "R" and so far I am finding it pretty interesting.
