May 1-31, 2011
Completed: 2/10
1. M is for May: 1.1 Read a book that starts with the letter M or the author's last name starts with an M.

2. Birthday: 2.1. Read a book from a May B-day celebrant’s GR bookshelf.
2.2. Read a book from a May B-day celebrant’s GR bookshelf whose “day” falls on the same “day” as yours. If no one has the exact same day, then go for the closest date.

5. Mother May I: 5.1. Read a book where the heroine is a mother.
5.2. Read a book where the hero or heroine spends the book searching for or trying to get to their mother.
5.3. Read a BDSM book. (After all, isn't BDSM all about one person following the commands of another person and trusting that they will get you where they want to go? So it's really like a full contact adult version of Mother May I.)
6. "Mayday mayday mayday! We're going down!": 6.1. Read a book with a rescue worker of some type (coast guard, fireman, EMT areexamples)
6.2. Read a book where the h/h are marooned or otherwise stranded and in need of rescuing.

8.3. Past alternative realities might be the toughest. What if something was different in the past? Steampunk? What if the Axis won WWII? Read a historical with an alternative reality.
The Rest Falls Away, Colleen Gleason, 5-3-11
9. Friday the 13th!: 9.1. Since Friday the 13th is said to be a day of misfortune and bad luck, read a book with luck or fortune or something along those lines in the title.
9.2. Since the date has become associated with a certain mass murdering psychopath, read a book that would be considered HORROR or at least a scary book.
9.3. Read a horror book with a 'luck' title.
