Beth Fish is hosting a sixth round of the What's in a Name Challenge. I have a lot of fun with this one, so it's definitely one of my (hopefully) much smaller list of challenges for 2013. Here's the scoop.
Between January 1 and December 31, 2013, read one book in each of the following categories:
- A book with up or down (or equivalent) in the title: Deep down True, The Girl Below, The Diva Digs up the Dirt
- A book with something you'd find in your kitchen in the title: Loose Lips Sink Ships, The Knife of Never Letting Go, Breadcrumbs
- A book with a party or celebration in the title: A Feast for Crows, A Wedding in Haiti, Cocktail Hour under the Tree of Forgetfulness
- A book with fire (or equivalent) in the title: Burning for Revenge, Fireworks over Toccoa, Catching Fire
- A book with an emotion in the title: Baltimore Blues, Say You're Sorry, Dreams of Joy
- A book with lost or found (or equivalent) in the title: The Book of Lost Fragrances, The World We Found, A Discovery of Witches
Here's my plan (subject to change):
1. A book with up or down (or equivalent) in the title:
Down the Rabbit Hole by Peter Abrahams (3/19/13)
Whatever Goes Up by Bertram Millhouse
2. A book with something you'd find in your kitchen in the title:
Malcolm Sage: Detective by Harold Jenkins (9/8/13)
A Spoonful of Sugar: A Nanny's Story by Brenda Ashford (4/3/13)
3. A book with a party or celebration in the title:
Holiday Homicide by Rufus King (4/23/13)
4. A book with fire (or equivalent) in the title:
The Man Who Went Up in Smoke by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö (1/8/13)
5. A book with an emotion in the title:
Unhappy Hooligan by Stuart Palmer (3/24/13)
A Cold & Lonely Place by Sara J. Henry (3/9/13)
6. A book with lost or found (or equivalent) in the title: Four Lost Ladies by Stuart Palmer (1/23/13)
So glad you're joining in -- love your tentative reading list. The Fire title is great.
