#SixforSunday – Favourite Colours

The Biblioshelf4 Comments

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends,

It’s the final week of this month’s Six for Sunday theme all about colours!

For those who don’t already know, Six for Sunday is weekly meme hosted by Steph over at A Little But A Lot. 

Favourite Colours

I think I have many favourite colours. I like and wear a lot of blue, am drawn to anything pink, always pick out the green sweets as they’re the best and will often say purple when someone actually asks me what my favourite colour is…! Perhaps I should say my favourite colour is rainbow! With that in mind, this week’s favourite colour selections are some of my favourite book covers of all time which feature these colours.

  • Wicked Like a Wildfire by Lana Popović
  • Viper Wine by Hermione Eyre
  • Summer at the Lake by Erica James
  • Girl, Serpent, Thorn by Melissa Bashardoust
  • Written in Starlight by Isabel Ibañez
  • The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

What are your favourite colours? Do you have favourite styles when it comes to book covers? Do you ever judge a book by its cover?

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends,

It’s time for the final season’s colour this week in Six for Sunday: Autumn! This one was probably the easiest season for me to choose for!

Autumn Colours

For me Autumn is all about the leaves changing colour on the trees and nights drawing in with some spectacular sunsets. I think that’s pretty self-explanatory with all of the colours featuring here!

  • Illuminate by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
  • The Girl of Ink and Stars by Kiran Millwood Hargrave
  • Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J. Ryan Stradal
  • Circe by Madeline Miller
  • Fire and Heist by Sarah Beth Durst
  • The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

What colours do you think of when it comes to Autumn? Is Autumn very different in your country?

#SixforSunday – Summer Colours

The BiblioshelfLeave a comment

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends,

We’re finally at the Summer colours week – I think it’s so much easier to become inspired by something if you’re living through it! Much of my summer so far has been spent down by the coast staring out over the sea so many of these selections should be holiday related as that’s what I tend to think about when it’s summer time.

Summer Colours

Summer is so much fun and I love love love the heatwaves and warmer weather, I especially love the long summer holidays. With that in mind, my summer colours are all vivids and bright colours which pop off the page!

  • Anna K by Jenny Lee
  • Nocturna (Fairyloot Exclusive Edition) by Maya Montayne
  • Nine Perfect Strangers by Lianne Moriarty
  • The Sunshine and Biscotti Club by Jenny Oliver
  • The Lonely Hearts Travel Club: Destination Thailand by Katy Collins
  • The Plus One Pact by Portia MacIntosh

What colours mean Summer to you? What is your favourite activity to do during the Summer time? What’s your favourite holiday read?

#SixforSunday – Spring Colours

The BiblioshelfLeave a comment

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends,

Continuing the colour theme this week in Six for Sunday by thinking about all cover colours which are spring-like! I could have had so many choices for this one and then some which could have crossed over into next week’s summer colour post as well so it was actually fairly difficult to pick just six!

Spring Colours

Spring is probably my favourite season. It feels such a relief after the winter to see the sun shining for longer, to have animals coming out of hibernation and new blossoms and leaves growing on trees. I could do without the April showers but when mixed with sunlight I love the rainbows they make. For this season theme, I’m thinking ore along the lines of pastel colours to remind me of hazy blue skies and pink cherry blossoms.

  • Gardens of Delight by Erica James
  • Girl, Serpent, Thorn (Fairyloot Exclusive Edition) by Melissa Bashardoust
  • Fierce Like A Firestorm by Lana Popović
  • The Little Bookshop of Lonely Hearts by Annie Darling
  • Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch
  • Forest of a Thousand Lanterns by Julie C. Dao

What colours do you think of when you think of Spring? What would your favourite season be? Do you think of yourself as a seasonal reader?

#SixforSunday – Wintery Colours

The Biblioshelf1 Comment

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends,

We have a brand new theme this month in Six For Sunday. This August we are thinking of seasonal colours. It was so much fun to scroll through my Goodreads shelf and select the different covers I felt matched the brief.

Wintery Colours

When I chose most of these, they all seemed to have blues, greys, whites and blacks on them as I apparently associate that with winter?! To be fair, our British winters are usually dull, grey rainy days rather than the picture-postcard snowscapes which I tend to think of when considering what winter looks like. I tried my hardest to find a green and red themed cover to make me think of Christmas but I don’t appear to have read one of those so far! 

  • The Rain Heron by Robbie Arnott
  • A Throne of Swans by Katharine and Elizabeth Corr
  • Deception Point by Dan Brown
  • Odd and the Frost Giants by Neil Gaiman
  • Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas
  • The Winter Ghosts by Kate Mosse

I have to admit, after whinging slightly at first, I am actually loving this new block editor from WordPress now I’ve been able to take the time and get my head around it! 😂
What colours do you associate with winter? What are some of your favourite winter themed books? Have you done your own Six for Sunday?
