What's in a Name 5



This is the fifth edition of the What's in a Name challenge, organised by Beth Fish Reads. It's one of  my favorite challenges, just because I love making the original lists of possibilities. The categories are always so cool!

The challenge requires 6 books, one per category, to be read in 2012. Head on over to the challenge post for the details.

I've participated in the second, the third, and the fourth and here are my possibilities for the fifth:

A book with a topographical feature (land formation) in the title: The Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean Auel

A book with something you'd see in the sky in the title: The Girl Who Chased the Moon by Sarah Addison Allen

A book with a creepy crawly in the title: The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd

A book with a type of house in the title: The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery

A book with something you'd carry in your pocket, purse, or backpack in the title: The Last Little Blue Envelope by Maureen Johnson

A book with a something you'd find on a calendar in the title: April Witch by Majgull Axelsson, The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro

Are you re-reading April Witch? I remember you recommending it and it was a good read ;-)

I had fun reading your list:

First I thought, Awesome! Clan of the Cave Bear is excellent, with the prehistoric sex. Then I saw The Girl Who Chased the Moon. I have that on my list for this challenge too, and I love Addison Allen. I read Bees - it's really good too. Oh my, Blue Castle? Joanna gets to read that for the first time. I have 13 Envelopes on my list. And finally, Remains of the Day, an Ishiguro to finish. Seriously awesome list.
