Entering the Color Coded Reading Challenge, hosted by Bev over at My Reader’s Block required that I add a number of books to my already long reading list for 2012, but I just couldn’t resist. I love category challenges!

Here are my tentative choices:
1. A book with “Blue” in the title: Half-Blood Blues by Esi Edugyan
2. A book with “Red” in the title: Trixie Belden and the Red Trailer Mystery by Julie Campbell
3. A book with “Yellow” in the title: The Mystery Of The Yellow Room by Gaston LeRoux
4. A book with “Green” in the title: How Green Was My Valley by Richard Llewllyn
5. A book with “Brown” in the title: TBD – any suggestions?
6. A book with “Black” in the title: Crime at the Black Dudley by Margery Allingham
7. A book with “White” in the title: The Woman in White by Wilkie Colllins
8. A book with any other color in the title : These Happy Golden Years by Laura Ingalls Wilder
9. A book with a word that implies color: In Cold Blood by Truman Capote
