This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a freebie. Since I didn’t post in April, I missed out on sharing my list for Book Titles That Sound Like They Could Be Crayola Crayon Colors. This was the only prompt I thought was interesting for that month, so I still wanted to share what I came up with, even if it’s a bit late.
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo: I definitely could picture this as a dark gray almost black kind of shade.
Winter, White and Wicked by Shannon Dittemore: This one could be a sparkly, shiny, glittery white or maybe a white with a gray edge, if that’s even possible.
The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn Herman: a light gray that makes you think about a blanket of dust.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer: I don’t know why so many of these are black-gray-white shades, but I picture this based off the book as an ashy, metallic gray. Like something you would picture for, I don’t know, a cyborg part.
Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston: This would be a rusty shade, like rusted metal.
Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore: A subdued shade of blue, maybe like blueberries or something along those lines.
Obsidio by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff: Black as the night, black as a black hole, black as the void of space. It’s like the darkest dark you could ever see. What Batman and Hades wear.
The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert: I picture this as a brownish, greenish color that makes you think of thorns and enchanted forests and fairy tales.
Starflight by Melissa Landers: a bright shade of white gold with glitter.
Flamefall by Rosaria Munda: A deep, vivid orange that maybe has a flecks of yellow and red mixed in. One of those crayons that is multi-colored. (Which doesn’t match the cover of the book at all, but oh well.)
Ooh, good picks! I struggled with that topic a lot, but you did a marvellous job with it.

That TTT topic struck me as nearly impossible, though you did a great job with it! I love the image your description of the color Starflight brings to mind!
