I hadn’t done the Color Coded challenge for a while & decided I wanted to play again this year. It took me all year to get my “colorful” titles done, but here’s my line-up.
Blue– Black Woods, Blue Sky by Eowyn Ivey
Red– A Red Herring Without Mustard (Flavia de Luce #3) by Alan Bradley
Yellow-The Golden Tresses of the Dead (Flavia de Luce, #10) by Alan Bradley
Green– Angel of Greenwood by Randi Pink
Brown– What Time the Sexton’s Spade Doth Rust (Flavia de Luce, #11) by Alan Bradley
Black– The Grey Wolf (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, #19) by Louise Penny
White– White Mulberry by Rosa Kwon Easton
Any other color (Purple, Orange, Silver, Pink, etc).– The Weed that Strings the Hangman’s Bag (Flavia de Luce #2) by Alan Bradley (purple cover)
A word/image that implies color (Rainbow, Polka-dot, Plaid, Shadow, Paint, Ink, etc).– A Tarnished Canvas (Lady Darby Mystery, #13) by Anna Lee Huber

My goal for Mount TBR this year was Mt. Vancouver: 36 books. I kept getting distracted by new books & library books, so my TBR progress slowed. With a dedicated push in December, I made my goal & moved some books out!

The Virtual Mount TBR Challenge is only for books I do not own. They may be borrowed from the library, a friend, found on a free e-book site, or anywhere else that allows me to temporarily “checkout” the book.
My goal was to repeat White Plume Mountain: Read 48 books from my Virtual TBR/Wish List/Library. Because of all the library reading above, I made my goal.

I participated in Bev’s Calendar of Crime challenge for the first time this year & it was fun. Twelve books, one representing each month, are required for a complete challenge & I did it.
