What's In a Name 5 Reading Challenge

Host: Beth F from Beth Fish Reads

Challenge: Read one book whose title meets each category requirement.

Time frame: January 1 to December 31, 2012

This is probably my favorite challenge of all the ones I've ever done. It's so much fun finding a book from my shelves, my wish list or at the library that fits one of the categories. Most of the time, I realize after I've read a book that it fits this challenge and am rewarded with a very satisfying 'ah-ha!' moment. If I can inspire you to join one [more] reading challenge this year... this is the one.

You can learn more about this challenge and sign up for it yourself HERE.

This year's categories:

1. A book with a topographical feature in the title.
2. A book with something you'd see in the sky in the title.
3. A book with a creepy crawly in the title.
4. A book with a type of house in the title.
5. A book with something you'd carry in your pocket, purse or backpack in the title.
6. A book with something you'd find on a calendar in the title.

I'll keep a running list of the books I read for this challenge here:
