2025 & 2026 Reading Challenge discussion

PRISMATIC PAGES
Duration: January 1 – December 31, 2026

Join us this year as we read through the rainbow! Each month we will have a different color for you to fill your virtual shelves with. Read books where the cover is mainly the color of the month, or books with any shade of that color in the title.
Sign up for the total number of books you want to read for the year, whether it be evenly distributed across the rainbow or you just have a ton of blue books to read in January.
If you aren’t sure if your cover is more yellow or orange, you can drop an image of it into this website and it will break it down for you: https://labs.tineye.com/color/

January: Blue


February: Yellow
March: Gray
April: Green
May: Patterns (evenly colored or patterned covers)
Title word examples: shade, hue, ombre, stripe, dot
June: Pink
July: White
August: Orange
September: Purple
October: Black
November: Brown
December: Red

How to Participate:

1. Post here telling the challenge leader how many books you plan to read.
You may choose your books at the beginning, or add them as you go. You may join any time during the year, and may change your goal whenever needed.

2. When you finish books for the challenge, edit your original post or member’s corner thread to add them.
Instructions are in the how-to link below.

3. To have your progress updated, post a new comment here to let the challenge leader know.
Every time you post an update, be sure to include your original (sign-up) message number, the number of books you have completed, and your goal. We use your original message number to identify you, since multiple members may have the same profile name.
Example:
Update to message 32: 2/25 books read!

For more information about how our challenges work, visit this how-to thread or ask your challenge leader.

P.S. Please do not delete posts! It changes the message numbers, complicating the update process for both leaders and participants. If you wish to leave the challenge, simply post a comment here to let us know. You may edit your original post to say {deleted}. Thank you!
