Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

**** Please don't be intimidated by the size of this one. Feel free to trim or reduce to the size you feel comfortable with. For example, you may just wish to tell us your color scheme instead of reading books for it. Just pick what part you want to read and fill in what you don't with what your choice would be. This is supposed to be fun and it should be catered to your preferences. So have fun and enjoy!

The first item on the agenda is to pick your Prom Theme. Mine was 'Now It's Our Turn'. You can fashion it after your favorite song or perhaps a book title you think would be appropriate.

- You may pick a book that has your theme as the title, several books that combined contain one word each of the theme (this is the creative way to do this one since we're aiming to finish in 2 months), or if you're really ambitious do a spell-it-out challenge. keep in mind you can use one book to fill more than one of items to make this a little easier to do within our allotted time frame.

The second item on your agenda is to pick your color scheme.

- For this read one or more books with the colors in the title or one or more books that correspond to the colors in your scheme or do a spell-it-out of your colors.

Example of a spell-it-out:
R: Radiant Shadows by Melissa Marr (Title)
E: Edward from Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (Character's Name)
D: Cat with an Emerald Eye - Carole Nelson Douglas (Author's Last Name)

Thirdly, select a keepsake. Mine was a glass that had the year and theme printed on it. (This one is optional)

- Read a book with a picture of it on the cover or in the title.

The fourth item on the agenda is to pick the oh so important outfit.

- You may pick one or more books that have a 'to die for' dress/suit you fell in love with on the cover, or the title has a dress/outfit in the title (example Lady in the red dress) or do a spell-it-out challenge using the color of your dress, name of the character you choose, etc.

The fifth item on the agenda to do is find/pick your date. If you hate committing to just one individual, then feel free to fill up your dance card with those individuals you'd like to dance with:

- Read 1 or more books which include your favorite romance hero(es)/heroine(s) or do an optional spell-it-out with the characters name first, last, or full.

The sixth item on the agenda is to pick your mode of transportation

- Read 1 or more books which contain some means of transportation on the cover on in the book that you'd like to take to the ball. You may, if you like, do a spell-it-out challenge.

 [image error]

The seventh item on the agenda is to pick what music you'd like to dance to or what dance you'd like to partake in. You could pick something current, retro, classical, etc This prom is your baby so you get to pick.

- You may choose one or more books with couple dancing on the cover, have dancing or a masquerade ball in the book, or opt to do our ever popular spell-it-out challenge of your favorite song or dance.

The eighth item on the agenda is to pick an entree or restaurant, if you are to nervous to eat in front of others, you may choose an hor'dearve.

- You may choose one or more books with a restaurant, feast, dinner item, or food item on the cover (pizza, chicken kiev, ham, etc), books with sit down dinners, or do a spell-it-out challenge of your favorite food entree.

Lastly, tell us how your date ended.

- Read a book that contains your happy ending (perhaps a kiss or becoming prom queen/king) on the cover or in the story. Be creative and have fun and remember to keep it reasonably clean.

I attempted to send out invites via the group message, but alas it didn't get sent.

I am in

Did I read somewhere in there that you can use a book more than once? Or no? e.g. if a book has a person in a nice outfit kissing someone else... could I use that for 4 and 9?

I had the added rules of it had to be books I owned, hadn't read yet, or I could get at the library. I was reading About Dorothy Parker which inspired the whole Jazz age vibe.

Monthly/Seasonal Challenges: Create Your Perfect Prom Night
April 1 - May 31, 2012 DONE

My Prom Theme was A Night To Remember and held in 1994 in a small Canadian town. My boyfriend took me to my Prom. He was four years older and in University. He spent the evening whiling about being too old for my high school peers. The highlight of the evening was a nice boy from my class telling me I deserve better and confessing his love. I tried to approach the boy the following Monday, but he was too embarrassed by his confession. We never did talk. I ended up in the hospital with pneumonia and dehydration. I returned to school 2 weeks later and 15 lbs lighter with rumours of a terminated pregnancy. Stupid Teenagers. I was then a social pariah and spent my time counting the days until end of school.

Wow, Angie! I'm sorry that happened to you. 'Stupid Teenagers' is right!

That's terrible and so mean of them. I know you weren't pregnant, but I would have gone along with it and said they were just jealous because they couldn't get any. LOL!

Thanks Lisa Kay and Rachel. I was a skinny kid and I tried to point out that I could only lose 15lbs in 2 weeks from an abortion if I actually gave birth to twins. They just used that as a confession. Again, stupid teenagers. I'm 35 now and long past the drama. But thank you both for your kindness.

Great picks, Sallie. I like the way your night date ends. ☺

Angie said, "I ended up in the hospital with pneumonia and dehydration. I returned to school 2 weeks later and 15 lbs lighter with rumours of a terminated pregnancy. Stupid Teenagers. I was then a social pariah and spent my time counting the days until end of school."

Oh dear goodness Angie that is just the most awful thing I've ever heard. Teenagers can be so mean. Sounds like someone was jealous of you. I hope they got as good as they gave.

Oh Angie, I'm sorry you had to go through that. Teenagers truly suck and I think they're even worse today now that they can bully through the internet. I'm glad you were able to get through that and turn the other cheek. Makes you a better person.
