Spell the Month in Books April 2024 Linkup

Spell the Month in Books is a linkup hosted on Reviews From the Stacks on the first Saturday of each month. I link on the second Saturday of the month because the first Saturday of the month is dedicated to the #6Degrees of Separation meme. The goal, inspired by a hashtag Jana first encountered on Instagram, is to spell the current month with the first letter of book titles, excluding articles such as ‘the’ and ‘a’ as needed. That’s all there is to it! Intriguing!

Jana goes on to say that some months there are theme challenges, such as “books with an orange cover” or books of a particular genre, but for the most part, any book you want to use is fair game! To participate, simply make a post, comment, or picture of the books you choose. They can be books you physically own or simply titles you have come across.

The theme for April, Poisson d’Avril – The French version of April Fool’s Day involves fish, so let’s look for books related to fish, bodies of water, or comedy.

Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
