The Lucky One is really good, both the book and the movie;)

I still haven't seen Bolt! (my sister and I kind of love Disney/Pixar:P)

I had to do a little reading marathon this weekend (a friend wanted her books back since she's moving on Tuesday..ergo I had to read all four books this week), so I finished:
The Dream Thieves (works for three words in title)
Blue Lily, Lily Blue - Title starts with B
The Raven King (works for picture of crown)

I have books for:
- Title starts with K
- Title starts with B (will read this one anyway)
- Book made into movie (Nicholas Sparks)
- Published 2012
- Purple cover
- Could most likely find something for the magic wand and crown as well

Started reading The Dream Thieves, hopefully have it done by Friday.

Finished Kjekk men drittsekk (Beautiful Bastard), sort of loving this series a bit, both fun and hot=)

Finished Bound by a Dragon. Works for E (Edmund), H (Reeve Hobbes), O (Owain), L (author). Perhaps D as well, but I can't find the character at the moment.

pg8: "...off his light brown hair..."
pg37: "...turning more and more grey and ominous."

Finished A Storm of Swords: Blood and Gold

Works for D (Daenerys), H (Hodor), O (Oberyn), L (Tyrion Lannister), E (Edmure Tully), S (Sansa). Take a pick!=) (pretty sure there's a character for every letter in the alphabet in this series=P)

pg18: "...a brown-skinned man..."
pg 5: "...a broad face and dark hair going grey,..."

Also found "gray" in My Life with the Walter Boys

pg 11: "...his hair and scruff were completely gray..."

Did an edit on my earlier comment about brown, since I found the page, but can add it here as well: brown can be found at page 18: "His sandy blond hair looked brown since it was wet..."

I've just put finished books in the Wheel-a-thon books sheet, but am I supposed to put them on the bank sheet in stead or directly to the planning sheet? Just realized I'm not sure if I'm doing it right:P

I'm back from my holiday in Italy, still have this week off before work starts and the weather is terrible (close to a storm at the moment) so hopefully I will get some reading done=)

Brown can be found in My Life With The Walter Boys. Read ebook, found it at 4%.

Edit: Looked at it on Google books, brown can be found at page 18: "His sandy blond hair looked brown since it was wet..."

Finished My Life With The Walter Boys. Works for M, O (character Olivia), H (character Hailey). Eventually for later it also works for A,B,C,D,E,G,J,K,L,M,N,P,S,W,Z (thirteen kids as MCs so a lot of names..:-))

Finished The Sheperdess of Siena, wonderful book! Added to the spreadsheet, fits a bunch of letters:-)

Finished Witchstruck, will add it to the list:-)

finished The Housekeeper, added it to the spreadsheet with letters it works for:-)

Dragana, I read the ebook version so can't help much when it comes to deciding the color:-(

finished The soul of a butterfly for the coaching spot

i can try to read The soul of a butterfly tomorrow for coaching (it's former boxer Muhammad Ali's biography) if necessary?

Looks like things are coming together:-) update from Italy: we have moved on from Venice and visited Juliet's House in Verona and are now at the Garda Lake enjoying life:-)

I've finished Pawn. I think the circle on the front is a medallion of sorts (the MC gets one in the book and I think the one on the cover is supposed to be that one), so maybe chariot decoration? if not, just bank it.

I have a five hour traintrip tomorrow, so might get some reading done. If it's not something special I should try to find, I will start on one of the Game of Thrones books:-)

Finished "my love lies bleeding":-)
