Anne Bishop is fantastic. I really want to get to
this month. I got it a few weeks ago, but other challenges keep getting in the way! :( I really like the Black Jewels books as well, though I've only read maybe the first four in that series. Another series that I need to get back to...
It seems to happen quite a bit with me and challenges. I really hope I can get the third book before the end of the month. With getting distracted with another challenge I am almost done with a book that will work for 7 blue

Are there anymore colors that have not been claimed?
Ora wrote: "Are there anymore colors that have not been claimed?"I think we might still need a 1 Red.
If no one has a book that will work for 1 Red, I will read
next week.
That'll also work as Reverse for you Ora. Another of my fav books!
Okay, I've finished two overnight: Raisins and Almonds by Kerry Greenwood

It's also a Yellow Cover, if we need one of those?

I'm also gonna read
