Rules:
1. 26 books!
runs January 1st 2011 –December 31, 2011. For each letter, read a book that has a main character or key supporting character (not some random minor character mentioned twice!) whose name starts with that letter. It doesn’t have to be the title of the book, just the name. Ex: Alice (in wonderland), Bella (twilight), Cathy (Wuthering Heights), Dracula (Dracula) Estella (Great Expectations), etc.
2. only one letter per book!
3. Crossovers are fine
4. audio, e-book, bound book, someone reading it out loud to you, reading a book to your little brother or sister, it all counts.
5. any length—short stories, books of the Bible, etc. they all count for this one.
6. Don’t have to be a blogger, don’t have to review the book. Just tell me you're participating. Goodreads is a great way to keep track of books for non-bloggers (make a shelf for this challenge and keep track of them that way!)
Levels:
Level 1: 10 Letters
Level 2: 20 Letters
Level 3: Completes all 26 letters (yes, that means X and Z and Q. I’m sure you can find something.)

Here's my latest update: http://truebookaddictchallenges.blogspot.com/2011/02/alphabet-challenge.html
I originally planned on doing level 1, but I'm almost there so I may be able to do level 2 or possible all 26 letters. We shall see!
This is really such a lovely challenge to come up with. I stumbled onto this one quite late, but I am still going to try and finish as many as I can :) Here's the link to my Alphabet Challenge post:

I think I'll do this. It sounds fun and it'll narrow down my reading choices...help me read with purpose. Great idea!
