Julie Is anyone up for a rainbow challenge? Here's how it works...

You'll have a year to do it, April 6th 2012 to April, 5th 2013.

There will be 12 colors that you match the cover of the book to. The book can only be used once. If it has 2 colors pick the most dominant one and use that for your color.

The book doesn't have to be PA/Dystopian but lets stick with YA since we're a YA group.

You can post all the books you are planning to read if you'd like, or you can post as you go.

Purple
Pink
Blue
Green
Red
Yellow
Black
Gray/Silver
Brown
White
Gold/Beige
Orange
