I have found books with the following colors in their titles and will start this challenge on 01/01/2010!

White:
Black:
Blue:
Red:
Yellow:
Gold:
Silver:
Gray:
Green:
Pink:
Turquoise:
Indigo:

I know this is more than 9 colors, but I like to have options.

I have stolen this from my friend Nicole, but I think it is an Awesome challenge:

Sobre a minha bibliotecaMy library is made up of books I own and books I check out from my local library. Even though I know I should pass my books "on", I just love them too much and tend to keep them all. I do loan them out happily, but rarely get rid of them completely. Eventually, I will run out of space and then I will purge a bit, but until then, I love being surrounded by them all!
