[Ann aka Iftcan]

This is an oldie but goody--or at least, I've always enjoyed it. So, without further ado--your APRIL 2015 CHALLENGE.

Everyone knows that April showers bring May flowers—so, to celebrate all the colours we are looking forward to—Colour Challenge. One book per colour.

So how does it work? Does the colour have to be in the title or does that colour have to be the predominant colour on the cover? I'm new to GR and these challenges.

You know--I used to really love this challenge. Then I started getting most of my books on my Nook. My plain, does nothing but allow me to read books, and thus everything is greyscale and white Nook. So now I can't see those beautiful colours. And I find that I do miss seeing the covers in "Living Colour" as it were.

But hey, what's an extra step in recording my reading right? Especially since it means that I DO get to see those covers.
