I am going to try this but I am going to aim for one of each color to start with but I will post a full list. I need to look through my TBR pile to see what colors I have. I also have to look up the colors since most of my books are on Kindle LOL. I have only been attempting challenges for a couple of months in one of my other groups so I don't think I will complete 12 books! I just don't read that fast!

Oh btw the numbers are so I remember what order to read the Sookie books in LOL.
Oh you don't have to do them all! The requirement for this one is just 2 :) Each month that will stay the same with just 2 being required, but more can be read if you are a fast reader :)
Oh and also, as far as the challenge goes, you can include any genre of book. So don't feel limited to just PR and UF :) We have our group reads for those :D

I haven't done any challenges here before. Maybe I will throw a non PNR in there. I also have Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil which I found at a thrift store and I could read that for green. I think it is about strange things that happen in a small town. I want to read it before I see the movie. John Cusack is in the movie and I love him but I want to read the book first. :)
Oh and about the 2 required I thought I had to read 2 of each color to finish the challenge LOL. I guess my goal of 1 of each color is more than acceptable then :)

♥Tricia♥ wrote: "Oh no, just pick 2 from the list :D"Oh okay :) They will probably be Sookie books and/or Inkdeath for my first books I read. My ultimate goal is one from each color but at least 2 is realistic. :) I hope I can do better than that though because I made a goal to read 100 books this year and I am only on number 11! I am so far behind!

I loved that series too! I liked Riley as a female lead and I didn't mind her need for sex. I also like the men she was with. The plot was OK too, lol.
