Read a book with purple text on the cover.

The child in me hates it when we cant knock off multiple goals at one time. :P

Update

Any of the currently read books have some nice triumvirate ?

Update
!! New Goal !!

Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as alpha-male - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable.

Sonia,
Tamika's How to Walk Like a Man has 'hot alpha male' as one of the shelves, would that work ? *fingers crossed*

Oh, I so remember you going all crazy with the Stephanie Plum series when we were playing the UNO ! Challenge. :P *hehe*

Every time I read a Stephanie Plum (or a Janet Evanovich book for that matter), I think of you ! :)

Book Page --> Open Genre List (Left Right Hand Side) --> First Page should have '2006' mentioned.

I used it for the Dystopia List as that goal seemed more specific than the Series goal which is more generic and any other book can be used there, if anyone of us starts a new series.
