southernbohemian's "My A-Z Author Challenge"

Add to my lists | Print this list

The books I intend on reading for my A-Z author challenge. I tried to pick contemporary authors that I have never read before. It has basically turned into a shopping list since I only have one of these books at the moment.

Maybe this is a bit of a stretch, but have you read The Autobiography of Malcolm X?
