2025 Color Coded Reading Challenge

The Color Coded Reading Challenge is another one of my favorite challenges. I have been participating in the challenge for many years and it is getting harder to find books with colors in the title. However, I cannot resist rejoining the challenge in 2025.

The challenge is hosted by Bev at the My Reader's Block blog.  She has made the challenge a little easier next year by allowing the color to be in the title, the author’s name or the color to be the dominant color for the cover of the book. 

General Rules:

A) Challenge runs from January 1 through December 31, 2025 and any book read after January 1 may count regardless of when you sign up. You may sign-up any time.

B) Read nine books in the following categories:

1. A book with "Blue" or any shade of Blue in the title/author name/on the cover.

2. A book with "Red" or any shade of Red in the title/author name/on the cover.

3. A book with "Yellow" or any shade of Yellow in the title/author name/on the cover.

4. A book with "Green" or any shade of Green in the title/author name/on the cover.

5. A book with "Brown" or any shade of Brown in the title/author name/on the cover.

6. A book with "Black" or any shade of Black in the title/author name/on the cover.

7. A book with "White" or any shade of White in the title/author name/on the cover.

8. A book with any other color in the title/author name/on the cover.title/on the cover (Purple, Orange, Silver, Pink, etc).

9. A book with a word/image that implies color in the title/author name/on the cover. (Rainbow, Polka-dot, Plaid, Shadow, Paint, Ink, etc). 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.

C) Crossovers with other challenges are fine.
