Welcome to the fourth What's in a Name Challenge! This challenge was originated by a young blogger named Annie, who hosted it for two years.  Beth F. has been rocking as the host ever since.  Even though I am still working on last year's challenge, I am excited to try again for this year.

Here's How It Works

Between January 1 and December 31, 2011, read one book in each of the following categories:

1. A book with a number in the title: One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni. I finished the book in April. You can find my review here.
   
2. A book with jewelry or a gem in the title: The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. I finished the book on March 18th; you can find my review here.
   
3. A book with a size in the title: 
4. A book with travel or movement in the title: Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. I finished the book in July. You can find my review here.
   
5. A book with evil in the title: The Emperor of All Maladies by Siddhartha Mukherjee. I finsihed the book on December 30th. You can find my review here. 
6. A book with a life stage in the title:  Operating Instructions: A Journal of my Son's First Year by Anne Lammott You can find my review here. 

Other Things to Know

• Books may be any form (audio, print, e-book).
• Books may overlap other challenges.
• Books may not overlap categories; you need a different book for each category.
• Creativity for matching the categories is not only allowed but encouraged.
• You do not have to make a list of books before hand.
• You do not have to read through the categories in any particular order.
