Okay, I've update message 26 to include our new participants, welcome everyone.
11/12SPRING
1. Spring Ahead! The phrase "Spring forward, Fall back" helps people remember how Daylight Saving Time affects their clocks. At 2 a.m. on the second Sunday in March, we set our clocks forward one hour ahead of Standard Time. Read a book about time travel.
Ubik 5/19/15
2. Spring into action - to suddenly begin moving or doing something. Read a book where a character makes an impetuous decision.
The Demonologist 4/24/15
3. Spring is a Season! Spring is one of the four conventional temperate seasons following winter and preceding summer. There are various technical definitions of spring, but local usage of the term varies according to local climate, cultures and customs. When it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere, it will be autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. Read a book that takes place in the Spring.
4. A spring is a natural source of water – read a book with water on the cover or that takes place on the water.
Ghost Shadow 5/21/15 (water on cover)
5. Spring, a mechanical device that stores energy. Read a steampunk book - Steampunk is a subgenre of speculative fiction, usually set in an anachronistic Victorian or quasi-Victorian alternate history setting. It could be described by the slogan "What the past would look like if the future had happened sooner." It includes fiction with science fiction, fantasy or horror themes. Most steampunk books have mechanical devices in them.
Untimed 6/2/15
6. Spring Cleaning. Spring cleaning is the practice of thoroughly cleaning a house in the springtime. The practice of spring cleaning is especially prevalent in climates with a cold winter. The most common usage of spring cleaning refers to the yearly act of cleaning a house from top to bottom which would take place in the first warm days of the year typically in spring, hence the name. However it has also come to be synonymous with any kind of heavy duty cleaning or organizing enterprise. A person who gets their affairs in order before an audit or inspection could be said to be doing some spring cleaning. Read a book that has been on your TBR list the longest.
Eliot Ness: The Rise and Fall of an American Hero 5/27/15
7. Spring Break is a vacation period in early spring at universities and schools in various countries in the northern hemisphere. Read a book that takes place at a college or during spring break.
Gooseberry Bluff Community College of Magic: The Thirteenth Rib 4/18/15
8. Spring goes in like a lion and out like a lamb. With March being such a changeable month, in which we can see warm spring-like temperatures or late-season snowstorms, you can understand how this saying might hold true in some instances. We can only hope that if March starts off cold and stormy it will end warm and sunny, but the key word is hope. Read a book where weather plays an important part to the plot.
Rivers 5/5/15
9. She’s/He’s no Spring Chicken. New England chicken farmers discovered that chickens born in the Spring bought better prices, rather than old birds that had gone through the winter etc. Sometimes farmers tried to sell the old birds as a new spring born chicken. Smart buyers often complained that a tough fowl was "no spring chicken" and so the term now is used to represent birds (and even people) past their plump and tender years. Read an old favorite or a book you have been putting off reading.
Les Misérables 6/26/15
10. Hope Springs Eternal is from a poem An Essay on Man by Alexander Pope – people always hope for the best, even in the face of adversity. Will continue to hope even though they have evidence that things cannot possible turn out the way they want. Read a book of poetry or a book about a poet.
Scenes from the Death of My Romantic Youth 4/5/15
11. Spring to mind - to appear suddenly or immediately in your thoughts. Read a book that was released in 2015 or the newest book on your TBR list.
The Nightingale 5/2/15
12. Spring in his step If you walk with or have a spring in your step, you walk energetically in a way that shows you are feeling happy and confident. Read a book that has a character who exhibits these characteristics or an action genre book.
The Rise of Mallory 6/8/15
Let's get this party started!! Update Message 16
First book read
2. Read a book where a character makes an impetuous decision. The Princess Bride - this was a fun book! all the impetuous decisions!!
I've finished my first 2 books and updated message 23 :-)I read Stardust by Neil Gaiman – this on the list of Goodreads Steampunk books.
I also read The Girl Who Just Appeared by Jonathan Harvey - The main character Holly makes an impetuous decision to move to Liverpool to find her birth mother, without thinking this through first.
I'm in for 4!EDIT: I'll go by Nicole W.
I will try for 6 to start, might change it later though :)

What is an action book really? Does it exist a list of spring books?
Just completed my selection for #12 action book - The House of Hades by Rick Riordan. I find it truly impressive that Riordan can continue to come up with twisty, intricate plots and keep his books from feeling incredibly heavy. And, for the most part, his narratives remain consistent over the books, which is incredibly impressive for the number of books in the series. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars1/12
updated post 721/4
Completed task #10 - Hope Springs Eternal
Just completed #8 Weather - The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan. Excellent book and conclusion to the series! Definitely worth reading! 5 stars2/12

When it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere, it will be autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. Read a book that takes place in the Spring.
Chocolat by Joanne Harris

We can only hope that if March starts off cold and stormy it will end warm and sunny, but the key word is hope. Read a book where weather plays an important part to the plot.

9. She’s/He’s no Spring Chicken. New England chicken farmers discovered that chickens born in the Spring bought better prices, rather than old birds that had gone through the winter etc. Sometimes farmers tried to sell the old birds as a new spring born chicken. Smart buyers often complained that a tough fowl was "no spring chicken" and so the term now is used to represent birds (and even people) past their plump and tender years.

2/12!
Welcome to those who have joined the challenge. I have update message 26 - hope I didn't miss anyone!
Just completed #10 Book about Poet - Things We Set On Fire by Deborah Reed. While I liked some of the imagery and the characters and some of the twists in the plot, overall the book was underwhelming. There were many times I was frustrated with the excessive prose and just wanted the story to move along. Not worth reading. 2 stars3/12

Winter wrote: "Sharon wrote: "Welcome to those who have joined the challenge. I have update message 26 - hope I didn't miss anyone!"Sharon, how do you define an action book?"
Goodreads defines it as: The action genre is characterized by more emphasis on exciting action sequences than on character development or story-telling.
Often see a book listed as an action-adventure, here is a list (hopefully the link comes through)

Thank you :) So I can use any from that list at least? Several on my tbr there, so that's good!

Just completed #4 water on cover - Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin. I was uncertain of this book at the beginning. The concept seemed far-fetched and the teenage character was very angst-ridden.
