Please post a link to the title of the book along with the date you finished reading. You may update your original post as you work on the challenge, but please also copy your update and post it as a new message in the challenge thread, as this will make it easier for me to keep track of your progress. This is especially important when you complete the challenge, so we can all give you a virtual pat on the back for a job well done.

SPECIAL NOTE: There are six colors whose names have multiple Zs in them. If you choose one of these colors, any Zs AFTER THE FIRST ONE can be used as wild cards, but only in ONE color name. If you choose more than one name with multiple Zs, you will need to find Zs for the other names. If you absolutely cannot find a title or author whose name begins with Z, after the first Z, you may use a title or author’s first/last name that contains the letter Z instead.
