Reading the Rainbow!
If you want a bit more challenge, read two books for each color, or even three!
The covers can have other colors, but should be predominantly the specified color.
Keep track however you wish (post here as you progress, or keep notes somewhere else), but please post here when you're finished so we know you participated, and so we can see what you read.
Remember to include the covers!
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

Love the idea though, because almost every genre has its own color-themed series...

No need to do them in order.Sadie105 wrote: ↑02 Jan 2019, 18:34 Love this idea! So do we have to read in order - i.e., start with a red book and work down the spectrum? I have the Flavia Dr Luce series in mind (author was Alan Lee, I think?) but the cover colors are definitely not in order. I think it starts with green and bounces around from there.

Have fun!

It lasted about 6 weeks - I gave up and separated them into Categories again, because I could not find what I needed.
Plus, I found the colors to be disappointing. The colors weren't as bright from a distance as they were up close.

To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
