2026 Color Coded Reading Challenge

Another I always look forward to. Even though it's getting harder to find color titles, especially, yellow and brown. But I still love doing it.


Color Coded Reading Challenge
 
I've opened the possibilities up just a bit further--the color may be named in the title, in the author's name, or it may appear as the dominant color for the cover of the book. For "implies color" the image implying color should dominate the cover--for instance a large rainbow, a field of flowers, or the image of a painter. Get ready for a rainbow of reading in 2026. 

General Rules:
~Challenge runs from January 1 through December 31, 2026 and any book read after January 1 may count regardless of when you sign up. You may sign-up any time.
~Crossovers with other challenges are fine.
