Romance Lovers for the Challenge-Impaired discussion

In my mind everything has a color. When I hear “beach,” I think “yellow.” When I hear “jungle,” I think “green,” and so on! So, here is a challenge for you:

“The Colors in Your Mind”

Rules:   Pick your reading level for the month of April. Then, select books with the following settings and/or locations that correspond to the color. Or choose a bookcover where that color predominates. (You may choose a category more than once, if you desire).

You may have two Reader’s Choices, or more, if you have more than three books that fall into the other categories. Don’t forget the “WILD CARD!” choices below, too.

Also, you may opt for the “Spell-it-Out” option.

Duration:   April 1st to 30th, 2014.

Levels:

1-2 - Easy
3-5 - Medium
6-9 - Harder
10 or more - Hardest

Key to Colors

beach = yellow
big city = grey
boutique or bedroom = pink
