Bev noticed an early trend her reading, decided to run with it and came up with a challenge for the rest of us. She wants us to join her in reading nine different books this year with a color in the title. Seven specific colors plus one other and a word that implies color, such as rainbow or plaid.

8. any other color: The Man with the Golden Gun by Ian Fleming
9. implies color: Repairing Rainbows by Lynda Fishman
6-21: Four read (one was a review book!). Three planned (two are review books!) and one still to find (How Now Brown Cow?)
6-28: I've found all nine titles, with alternates on some. Brown's planned title was The Fall of Maggie Brown but I was cleaning out the closet and found a box of children's books :D The three colors left are all review books and one MUST be reviewed on 8-25.
9-8: WooHoo! Only one more title to read. Of the 8 books read so far, 4 of them have been, or in the process of being, reviewed!
