Thanks Bev! She wasn't going to host this one again but some asked and ... here it is! Join us again this year! Nine books. Nine colors. Well, seven specific colors plus one other and a word that implies color, such as rainbow or plaid.

Struggled with brown last year but I had four review books to help with the list last year, not sure what I'll be reading this year! I've got two review books off the top of my head that will help...wonder if there are others.

1. Blue

Town in a Blueberry Jam
by B. B. Haywood
2. Red ....Red Alert....
3. Yellow
4. Green
5. Brown
6. Black
7. White


Just a Little White Lie
by Lynette Hallberg

8. another color


Amethyst Moon
by Ann Mayburn
9. implies color

Pieces of a Rainbow
by Maria Savva


1-6: Yea! Two titles chosen....seven more to go....I've got some ideas but wanted to get the initial post up so I could sign up.

You're welcome, Gina! So glad to have people interested--and there were those who were hanging out hoping I'd do it again who found it too late last year. Who knew? Just goes to show one shouldn't feel neglected after all. :-)
