2024 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge

The Alphabet Soup Challenge is running again in 2024 and I will be rejoining the challenge for a second year.  The "soup" means that by December 31, 2024 your bowls must be filled with one book for each letter of the alphabet.  Each letter counts as 1 spoonful.  The challenge is hosted by the Escape with Dollycas Blog.

Challenge Rules:  

1)  This challenge will run from January 1, 2024 until December 31, 2024.

2)  You can join anytime. You do not have to post a review of the book. Books can come from any genre.

3)  Children’s Books and Novellas are acceptable but they need to be over 50 Pages. 

4)  You do not need to link up each spoonful.

4)  Grab a notebook or make a page or a post or a GoodReads shelf where you will keep track of your spoonfuls.

5)  Crossovers to other challenges are allowed and encouraged!

6)  It’s an alphabet challenge!!! The challenge is to read one book that has a title starting with every letter of the alphabet.

7)  You can drop the A’s and The’s from the book titles as shown below.  The first main word needs to be the letter you are counting except for Q, X, and Z titles then the word that starts with the challenge letter can be anywhere in the title.

8)  There are two different ways you can set up your own A-Z Reading Challenge.

A –  Make a list from A-Z. Throughout the year, as you go along, add the books you are reading to the list. Towards the end of the year, you can check and see which letters you are missing and find books to fit.

OR

B – Make a list now of 26 books, picking one for each letter of the alphabet, and check them off as you read them.

9)  Books can be read in any order and all formats – print – e-book – and audio – are acceptable for this challenge.
