Letters ? Are you really looking at the color of the letters there ? I cant seem to move my eyes from the right hand side.

Dick van Dyke.. Book with a butt in the title.. T, aren't you enjoying your books ?! *giggles*

Steven, we are all waiting for the good news from you that everything turned out well with Albus. *hugs*

Mary,

You can always use www.shelfari.com if you ever need the names of characters in a certain book. It is a good resource and tends to have the character details for most books, from what I have seen.

(Sorry if the link doesn't take you to the right place.. I am not in my computer at this moment.)

What a start to my day !!
My laptop conked on me.. I am not sure if I'd be able to edit the spreadsheet till I get it fixed, it seems.

Sonia, T : I will try working on it using my iPad but I am not sure how easy that would be.

Most definitely.

See ! Scolding the poor, spreadsheet-observing child ! :(

Update
!! New Goal !!

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
!! New Goal !!

Read a book that has a love triangle.

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.
