I didn't realize&nbsp;I'd find a challenge I liked so quickly.&nbsp; I found this one <a href="http://annie-whatsinaname.blogspot.com/">here</a>, and here's my list:<br /><br />1. <em>A book with a color in its title: </em>FOREVER IN BLUE-Ann Brashares<br /><strike>2. <em>A book with an animal in its title:</em> A COMPANY OF SWANS- Eva Ibbotson</strike>*<br />3. <em>A book with a first name in its title:</em> AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ALICE B. TOKLAS- Gertrude Stein<br />4. <em>A book with a place in its title:</em> BIG SUR- Jack Kerouac<br /><strike>5. <em>A book with a weather event in its title:</em> KISSING SNOWFLAKES- Abby Sher</strike>,* THE SUN ALSO RISES, Ernest Hemingway<br /><strike>6. <em>A book with a plant in its title:</em> FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC- V.C. Andrews</strike><br /><br />I've got all of 2008 to complete these.&nbsp; The Stein, Kerouac, and Hemingway ones I have to read for school anyway, so I'm sure those will get done, and the other three are young adult or romance (or both!), so those shouldn't be hard either.&nbsp; </p><p align="center"><a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/1year100books/pic/0000198s/"><img height="150" alt="" width="150" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/1year100books/pic/0000198s" /></a></p>*I got a little overeager.&nbsp; I couldn't wait to read these two, so I'm going to have to pick new ones for the challenge.&nbsp; As of right now, I'm still undecided about the animal one.&nbsp;
