I keep thinking that I've used up all the shades of brown on my TBR piles (I insist on having the color in my titles) and I keep finding another. In fact, I just went through my books on Goodreads and have set up a spreadsheet of color-related titles and it looks like I'm good for several years. So, I'm signing up for my Color Coded Reading Challenge in 2018.
