Hi and welcome to the reading world!
For today’s Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, we’re sharing 10 titles that could make good crayon colors! Apparently crayon brands have some fun and interesting color titles nowadays, so I’m sharing 10 picks off of my TBR that sound like fun color names!
Hall of Smoke
I’m thinking very smokey deep grey vibes for this one!
Dreamer’s Pool
Something of a light blue with grey undertones, maybe? (Can you tell I like grey?)
Red Seas Under Red Skies
(This is #2 in the series!)
Ok so I might be going a little punny with this one… but what about a light coral red? Get it? Red seas?
Red Rising
I’m thinking bright bold crimson red, like my favorite lipsticks.
Winter’s Orbit
For this one, I’m picturing a very light icy blue.
The Glittering Hour
Is metallic gold a crayon color? Because… metallic gold.
Jade City
I feel like jade green is the only answer here, especially given the little bit I’ve read of this story so far (and loved!)
The Priory of the Orange Tree
The orange of this cover fits really well to me, almost giving me a summer, sitting under the orange tree mood.
Empire of Gold
(This is #3 in the series!)
…I already used metallic gold once didn’t I?
The House in the Cerulean Sea
Bright, turquoise, happy blue! This book still warms my heart.
The Shadowed Sun
(This is #2 in the series!)
I absolutely love the cover of this book! Maybe the crayon would be a dark goldenrod, or one of the colors on this book? What do you think?
So there are my 10 picks- what are yours? Do you think I got the hypothetical color descriptions right?
Thank you for stopping by!

Ooh, I like Hall of Smoke!

These are all so good! I was thinking too literally on this one and just could not come up with anything for the topic. I had to go rogue this week.
Happy TTT!

Some great choices here! I couldn’t come up with anything for this week’s topic so I went in a different direction.

All of these are great. I love the Jade City.
I love the colours you’ve brought to mind! And I also had Cerulean Sea on my list! I think Dreamer’s Pool or Winter’s Orbit would be my favourites here
