Hopefully it's not a completely evil summoning spell.<br /><br />I'm not so specific with the more mundane things, although I know a couple people who do this.

Hmm, I've never read All the Rage, but that sounds like a perfect descriptor for read and I'm adding it to the list :)<br /><br />Oh, dear. Oh, dear. I do understand the book's not for everyone, despite being amazing, but the LOTR movies are worth checking out too.Alyssa Carlierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995554896786109238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981664243653036268.post-73009606828411129442015-05-11T20:32:50.076+08:002015-05-11T20:32:50.076+08:00I've always seen the Lord of the Rings as gree...I've always seen the Lord of the Rings as green and And Then They Were None as blue--not that I don't think they could be red, too! Harry Potter is a whole mix of colors, though mostly red and green, at least to me. The King of Attolia has a lot of red in it, though the main color is probably gold.

She's always telling me what sounds and tastes have colours and I just look at her like a blank watermelon. I just...nope. The only colours I'll see is what's on the cover. >.> I think the creativity is awesome though!CG @ Paper Furyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954615708675952085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981664243653036268.post-9556761596683511312015-05-11T18:28:39.808+08:002015-05-11T18:28:39.808+08:00I don't really get color vibes when I read boo...I don't really get color vibes when I read books, but I'd have to say that All the Rage by Courtney Summers made me see red. The book was very hearty, and I was raging throughout the whole thing!<br /><br />Your description of LOTR is pretty enticing.

Oh yes, there's quite a bit of green in LOTR too, but I decided Hobbit was green. I have no idea when I'll continue this series, to be honest, because I have all the books categorised but can't find the energy to write the post :/Alyssa Carlierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995554896786109238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981664243653036268.post-63586192222673400272015-05-10T14:04:36.784+08:002015-05-10T14:04:36.784+08:00Everyone says And Then There Were None was great. ...Everyone says And Then There Were None was great.

Ten Little Indians gets even creepier when you listen to the song from "Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson." Lord of the Rings makes me think of green more than red, but maybe that's because of the Shire and the Elves and the cloaks they wear and the fact that Sauron dies in the end. I like sorting books by ideas of color, though! I look forward to more of this soon!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797485444727976121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981664243653036268.post-42022067909739524832015-05-10T09:45:10.694+08:002015-05-10T09:45:10.694+08:00You could definitely call that ironic, or you coul...You could definitely call that ironic, or you could call that natural since red *is* much more obvious than black and white XD Yeah, I was a bit more "meh" with Treebeard and co. in the first read, but it all gets better in the second read.

I order all my books through Book Depository.<br /><br />Hobbit I see as somewhat less bloody, but LOTR is much less of a children's book.

Which is ironic. xD I've yet to read Part 3 in TLotR, but it's so vibrant so far! The world-building is fantastic. I'm just moving at snail pace at the moment because I've reached the Treebeard/Pippin/Merry part of Book 2, which is kind of boring. jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15645843961463128576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981664243653036268.post-46962675787864093402015-05-10T06:40:57.234+08:002015-05-10T06:40:57.234+08:00Oh, this was really interesting.
