The Gist: On the 1st of every month I will pick a random color in the Rainbow, and those who signed up for the month will try to read as many books that have that color on the book.

The color will be a surprise, though we could always vote on the color for the month in the group polls, but that is up to you guys. Of course both ways would be a surprise because I would still hide the votes.

For now I will be picking the color, but if this challenge continues, then we can change it.

For the chllenge, ANY LITTLE BIT OF THE COLOR CHOSEN FOR THE MONTH ON THE COVER WILL COUNT, EVEN IF IT'S JUST A LITTLE DOT. If the author has the color chosen for the month in their name (ex. John GREEN) it would count. (Colors we've done already) November: Green, December: Red, January: Blue, February: Pink, March: Orange, April: Purple



Participants:

Imagination-4
Deshna-1
Varsha-1
Xoxoasia-2
Erin Lynn-3

An the color for this month is.... Yellow

Read:

The Loose Ends List by Carrie Firestone

Technically this one was a DNF for me, but I read a good chunk of it before deciding that I just couldn't stomach the rest of the book.

How is that one? It's in the bargain books bin at my grocery store, and I'm curious.

Xoxoasia | 89 comments The concept of the book is interesting, but personally I don't think the author wrote it in a good way. There's more than 12 point of views making it very hard to follow.
