Somewhere over the rainbow...
Whether you’re an avid reader just looking for your next read or a newbie reader not sure where to start, then this is the challenge for you.
It can be difficult sometimes to find what you want to read next.
You stand there browsing the shelves for hours, waiting until something catches your eye. Going up and down the aisles, pulling books in and out, flicking through the pages. All just in the search for your next adventure.
So, we’re going to help you narrow your choices down with a nice and simple yet colourful way to find your next read!
Firstly, you could start by choosing a book in your favourite colour. Simple as that!
And if you don’t have a favourite colour, or your choices are limited, you can pick them all and follow our book rainbow or create your own!
Get creative and have some fun in finding your next read. There are so many colourful books out there waiting for you. We've put together a few rainbows for you to pick and choose from below!
So, get out there and start judging books by their cover. We won’t stop you.
