Fantasy/Horror/Scifi Book Club - Colour Symbolism

Hello everyone

In October we had a meeting on the theme of Vampires, a picture of some of the books we read is attached.

For October we’re looking at the theme of COLOUR SYMBOLISM.

So storytelling where colour symbolism plays a role, such as shorthand for morality, magical powers or social hierarchy. Examples would be were coloured clothing or titles indicate personality; or fantasy settings where different orders of magic are easily distinguished by coloured robes; or perhaps cast systems based named after or associated with colours.… Or if you don’t care of symbolism, books where Colour plays some role 😀

And while we choose this with fantasy in mind, horror or sci-fi may have examples also.

As always you are free to read whatever you wish, as strictly or loosely as it fits the theme, and come and tell us about it on the day and whether you’d recommend it.

Below are examples from our members to set the mood and give inspiration, but you are not limited to them.
