I finally finished the new Outlander book, An Echo in the Bone, now going to try and push to make 75 books this year. I've read 56, but I'm not sure if I can get to 75.

971945 Wow, great additions everyone! I'd like to see how many more we can get before proceeding with a new idea, which is books with a color in the title. I did an interesting quiz last night with that idea, but I'd like to give this thread a bit longer before expanding up the field wide open. I will post a link to the quiz later this week.

2524666 I don't know if I like the Blue Lady or not. It is delving into the paranormal and superstitions of the Catholic church. I will keep reading though. It is a genre I have not read in a long time.

Lori, it does seem to be expanding nicely. I like that it has grown into more than I had thought of originally. Keep thinking and posting everyone.

971945 I think Bloody Mary goes nicely with the theme. So, once again, Carol, you have opened my mind another crack by using an actual name. Good work! That's one thing I thought would be fun, seeing just how far we can take this.

I thought it might be a fun thread. Thanks for adding The White Queen, one that I've meant to add to my to-reads, too. Also, thanks for expanding the category to some more female titles/names. When I saw your post, I said to myself (since no one else was around and probably would have thought I was just once again talking to myself, which I was), "Yes, yes, yes, queen is another excellent word to include in the search for female titles and colors."
