Here is my theme for the 2016 Blogging from A to Z
Challenge in April: Authors of mostly YA books, a few MG books, and maybe a
couple of short stories I read during my younger years. For each post, I will
name one author with an initial in their name that matches the day’s assigned
letter. I hope to give a quote from each author and then share a little about
their story and the impression it left. There might be book spoilers in
some of the posts but that said, all the featured books are at least 10+ years
old. So it isn’t like I’m giving away endings for new releases.
It wasn’t easy picking the authors and books for this
month. Sometimes I felt a little guilty about choosing one author over another
for there are many authors and books I could and should share about. I
also made a point of not profiling any book that I’d already written
extensively about here.
So that’s my blogging theme for April. Are you
participating in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge this year? If so, what’s
your theme?

Sounds like a fun theme. I'm sure some letters were hard to choose between so many favorites and others were hard to find an author with that letter. I will chaco back in April in to which authors you ultimately selected.
If you visit my theme reveal I hope you won't give up on me. I'm on the tail end of a blog makeover and my blog is loading really slow, but the design company assured me it will be working properly in time for the challenge, and probably by midday today. Thanks. I'm looking forward to reading your posts.
Hi, this is very interesting, as I love to read too. I'm visiting from the A2Z Challenge. I have entered two blogs in, do check them out when you can, I think you will like them. ipsitabanerjee.wordpress.com and www.asliverofmoonbeam.blogspot.com.
Sounds like a great theme. I love learning about books.
Cool! Yeah, that would be difficult to pare it down to just one book.
It must have been really hard making the final decision for some of the letters. Good luck during April, I hope you have a great challenge. See you when it all kicks off :)

Sounds good indeed. Sometimes it can be hard to narrow down.
Fun theme - I look forward to seeing your choices.
Awesome theme! I'm excited to reading about your choices!
Sounds like a fun theme! I look forward to the Authors you've come up with! I will be doing two blogs this year.

See you in 10 days! ~Lori~

Oh, I love your theme! I attempted to put together a list of novels I've loved to use in the challenge, but was having a hard time selecting titles for the list. Like you said, I felt guilty for choosing one author over another.
Looking forward to reading your posts!
ooo, retro authors from the good old days! great theme!
The Really Real Housewives
Cool theme. Choosing just one author/book/anything is always hard. Best of luck for the challenge!

I am looking forward to seeing which books you choose. I think it is a great idea to reintroduce some books written awhile ago. Best of luck!

Addicted to books and reading. I'll see you in April.

Sounds like the perfect theme for A-Z. Can't wait to add more books to my TBR list.
Nice theme. Look forward to some recommendations!
Sounds good! I'm always looking for YA (and MG) recommendations for my kids.
Nice theme! Good luck with the Challenge.
Hooray for books! YA lit is one of my favorite types to read. I'll be checking back to see if any of my favs are on your list! Gail at Making Life An Art

No worries about the spoilers here! Sometimes I'm more likely to read a book if I know a few spoilers about it. :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I'll be sure to come back and check out your posts. I'm excited to see so many people writing about books this year!

Wow! Great theme! I have no idea how you narrowed down your authors; that would be a hard choice to make. Can't wait to see what made the cut! :)
