message 1: by Zara's Retreat (new)

Zara's Retreat This week's theme is all about reading books according to colour. Choose any of the four listed colours below to read. All the books need to be Young Adult.

The Colours:
Purple
Orange
Red
Blue

There are a few ways you can approach this.

Option One :
Choose a colour and read a book with a cover which is predominately that colour;

Option Two (especially for those who want a bit more of a challenge):
Do a spell-it-out. Pick a colour and read a book for every letter in that colour. For example - if you picked 'Red' as your colour, choose (and read) books which have the letters 'R', 'E', 'D' somewhere in the book's title or the author's name;

Option Three (only for the very brave):
Combine options one and two. That means read a book with one of the four colours mentioned as the predominate colour on the cover and do a spell-it-out.
