Yellow was my initial thought as well! But you do have a good point with the Choice Awards of the year, they probably don’t want them to clash with each other. I am hoping for a dark blue/dark purple!
I’m glad to see that there’s someone who cares about this as much as I do! Literally my favorite part of New Year’s Day is to see what is the color scheme of the reading challenge
2011 they had black and 2012 they had a sea green type color. I care about this way too much too! I think they are going with a yellow as well. But realistically they will probably go with something in the blue or purple family. EDIT: According to tineye 2011 is a majority of Black Pearl (Blue). It's a very dark blue almost black.
This is my fave video of 2018. Being passionate about a mundane thing to most people but a motherloving e v e n t to us book freaks out there 😂 I was really hoping for a bright sunny yellow tbh
u should totally vlog. if your vlogs are all about your cats and the birds suddenly appearing outside your window while discussing colours or any aesthetic stuff im so here for it tbh
I didn't know that I needed this video in my life, but it turns out I do! I loved this so much! From your enthusiasm to the random nature interlude, this was perfection!
I watched this video when it was released 5 months ago and your enthusiasm got me so hyped I made my own account and awaited the reveal of the color with you!! That was in December and now it's June 1st and I've exceeded my 10 book reading challenge and my current total for this year is 15 books so far!!! Thank you for introducing me to Goodreads and getting me so excited about reading again. I probably completed like 5 books last year so being at 15 rn is just so exciting. I can't wait to discover and enjoy so many more!!!!
I had to put down my tea because I was laughing so hard! I think I'll go with hot pink just to be contrary 😁 You actually have me feeling invested in what colour is chosen now 😂😂😂
The good reads staff in charge of colours are CRAZYY, they are CRAZZZYYY I tell you! Haha! Seeing you so excited Ariel gave me so much joy, I look forward to the inevitable sequel when the colour is revealed!
I hope it's green. A nice forest green, it's too underrated. Heck, I'd even be happy with a mustard yellow even if it clashes with the gold! But I think it's gonna be a shade of blue again lol
I am so glad you care about this!!! I am always super excited about the color. The anticipation!!! Before I watched this video, I theorized myself a little. My first thought was actually green. It is so out of the box and I think it would look cool. But the lilac idea would be beautiful!
I have never even looked at the colour or noticed it changed each year, but because of how passionate you are (which is one of the main reasons I follow you) I will be keeping an eye out this year and probably every year following, though probably not with as much consideration or care as you.
I always think about this at the end of December. I'm so RELIEVED that I'm not the only one. I'd love it to be a dark emerald green since that is my favourite colour. But a dark turquoise might go better with the colours of previous years.
you can see the previous colors by going to your profile, clicking "2018 reading challenge" and in the next page there will be a list with all of them. you can click in the ones you didn't finished/participated and it will show you the color
😂😂😂 I loved this video! I love your enthusiasm for the Goodreads reading goal colour. My first thought for the 2019 colour was green, but that lilac on your hat is so pretty. Now I’ll be standing by waiting for the announcement! 😁
As you said I am in the category of people who have never thought about the color of the Good Reads reading challenge thing. But I think I'm with you and would like to see a lilac color.
Going into this video I didn't really care about the colour but I effin LOVE how much you care, and now I want to know the colour just so I get get your reaction to it! (and I seriously hope they go with lilac or yellow just so we get to share your exitment); also that bird was super pretty!!
omg i'm so excited that there's someone else who is as passionate about the goodreads challenge colours as me lol. i always really look forward to seeing what the new colour will be, and i remember being genuinely disappointed in 2017 when the colour was almost the exact same as 2014 hehe. i like to think we might get a chestnut brown colour. i think it's a colour that fits really well with the previous years, yet it's something quite new. however, i think a green might happen too. they had a very very dark green in 2011 and a turquoise in 2012, so maybe it's time for a comeback.
Girl this is why i love you; the fact that you care as deeply about these booknerdy things as i do. I DO these things, i look at it i wonder every year and i feel FAR more motivated to meet my goal that year. For instance when they did orange i was like oh well this has to happen so i can own that complete icon. Then i won and i was like waw ok cool we're done. Then it was that BEAUTIFUL blue and i was like OH MY GWD I MUUUUST WIN!! So, my predictions: lime green. BOOM! Pictuee it! Right?!!!
Haha I love this! And I'm with you in paying attention! I love orange but wasn't thrilled with it for being 2018's color either...I think it was just the shade that felt too road stripe orange. I'd LOVE yellow but my wager is on a vivid magenta pink.
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE VIDEO ON THE INTERNET. I think they will want to divert from blues, but maybe yellow is too close to the goodreads choice awards, therefore, I preditc a pinky-red, but maybe that's too close to the peachey-orange of this year?
We have probably 10 or so Cardinals that live in my back yard. Love them all dearly. Every once in a while we get a blue jay. I vote blue jay blue is going to be the next color. Last yesterday I saw this video of yours and anxiously I wait for this to come out too!! Hoping for a cool tone as that is my preference. 😆
I wish we were able to pick our own colour haha, like I know it'd be impossible (probs not but i guess too much extra coding/work) but like a lil colour dropper then you put in a hex code.
This feels like when my dear friend explains his progress in Destiny 2, I have no clue why he's so excited but it's delightful to here him ramble about it :D I am delighted by how delighted you are ^_^
I was about to log out and go to sleep then, I saw your video thumbnail and I wanted to watch it. I am so happy that I clicked on it. It was so good and I couldn't stop smiling. You are amazing. I can't stop smiling and my cheeks are hurting, yet I am happy to go to sleep with a smile. Thank you. Btw, I too think they will go for a yellow -ish color in 2019. Let's wait and see.
Oh I love this!! I too care about this so much every year - and I have been hoping for green for so long that my heart broke a little when you said you don't think they'll do green. :'D But I'll definitely be more than okay with lilac, too! I just hope it's not yet another shade of blue ... I mean I like blue, but I also want something different.
Ariel post-masters degree is my favorite Ariel. 😂😚
books by leynes yeah, I think I lost my god damned mind somewhere along the way
I love that you also care about this as deeply as I do. Also I NEED it to be lilac.
readbyzoe right?!?!?! IT MUST BE LILAC. 💜
THE VIOLENT SIGHTING OF THAT MAJESTIC BIRD WAS EVERYTHING
Lorena Piliado I am so glad that you liked it hahahah that fills me with glee
This is genuinely the best booktube video I’ve ever watched
I choked on my oatmeal while laughing so hard watching this video. I think it’s going to be a cerulean for 2019.
Stories For Coffee hahahahaha
I didn't know I cared until you pointed it out
its gonna be green you'll see YOU'LL ALL SEE
Hahaha IT WOULD BE THE GREATEST UPSET IN DESIGN HISTORY
@@ArielBissett ended up being green a year later lmao
what if the goodreads challenge color ends up being the color of the bird? portent bird.
my god. it was a signal AND I DIDNT LISTEN
Yellow was my initial thought as well! But you do have a good point with the Choice Awards of the year, they probably don’t want them to clash with each other. I am hoping for a dark blue/dark purple!
"... but I think it would also respect what has come before" lol Oh Ariel, you kill me! Such passion for this. Hope you get your lilac this year! :)
the aUDACITY of that random orange in the middle throwing the color scheme off
oh we’re living for the animal content
I’m glad to see that there’s someone who cares about this as much as I do! Literally my favorite part of New Year’s Day is to see what is the color scheme of the reading challenge
RIGHT? My god. we are among friends.
Me too 😀
This video is everything. I think there is the option of it being a lighter salmon pink
a definite possibility. i would be super into that. good thinking.
NEED
Yeah, I was thinking they might go for a peach/coral colour, but not too bright and obnoxious
Soft pastel pink would be great!
THIS is what i subscribe for i love it
I love this so much
you know you found your niche when you can talk about the goodreads reading challenge colors and people are genuinely excited 😁
This is the video I didn't know I needed
Wow, this comment almost never applies, but dear lord is it accurate in this case!!
They went Orange in 2016. They knew!!!
2011 they had black and 2012 they had a sea green type color. I care about this way too much too! I think they are going with a yellow as well. But realistically they will probably go with something in the blue or purple family.
EDIT: According to tineye 2011 is a majority of Black Pearl (Blue). It's a very dark blue almost black.
Adriana Garcia black ??? Wow.
2011 is not black, it's like a really dark green-blue
@@pantafox I looked at tineye and the majority of the color is Black Pearl (Blue).
i kinda want it to be green lol.
oh man. it'd be so scandalous.
This is the content we all need
Seven minutes well spent
you're so frantic and ramble-y and all over the place and honestly I love it. this is the distracted graduate aesthetic we're all aiming for
This is one of mat favorite videos of yours! I love watching people who are so expressive about things that genuinely fully excite them.
I DIDN'T GIVE THIS A SINGLE THOUGHT UNTILL I WATCHED THIS VIDEO. NOW I THINK ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME. ALL. THE. TIME.
Would you ever consider making a new bookshelf tour ? (or a room tour(I really like tours))
This is my fave video of 2018. Being passionate about a mundane thing to most people but a motherloving e v e n t to us book freaks out there 😂 I was really hoping for a bright sunny yellow tbh
u should totally vlog. if your vlogs are all about your cats and the birds suddenly appearing outside your window while discussing colours or any aesthetic stuff im so here for it tbh

This was honestly one of the best videos I've watched in a while.
My prediction is millennial pink!! Although I would be super happy with both yellow and lilac, think they're just as likely!
I had to put down my tea because I was laughing so hard! I think I'll go with hot pink just to be contrary 😁 You actually have me feeling invested in what colour is chosen now 😂😂😂
I ADORE THIS. I was so waiting for this video 🙌🏻
I vote for green! I’d love some green for 2019 😍
Ps. THAT BIRD. Nature, you did good.
The good reads staff in charge of colours are CRAZYY, they are CRAZZZYYY I tell you! Haha! Seeing you so excited Ariel gave me so much joy, I look forward to the inevitable sequel when the colour is revealed!
GIRL when you said you were just gonna make the content you wanted!! You have stuck with it!!! I love this video!!!!
Film a live reaction to the new color. I’m pretty sure it comes available on January 1, so when you log in, it should be there.
I hope it's green. A nice forest green, it's too underrated. Heck, I'd even be happy with a mustard yellow even if it clashes with the gold!
But I think it's gonna be a shade of blue again lol
I am so glad you care about this!!! I am always super excited about the color. The anticipation!!! Before I watched this video, I theorized myself a little. My first thought was actually green. It is so out of the box and I think it would look cool. But the lilac idea would be beautiful!

I don't know why but like deep red or just variations of the shade red
I’m so glad you are so invested in this just like I am! I think a red would be pretty too, but I agree I would love a lilac colour!
Great video! I was thinking yellow as well. I would be ok with green if it's a lime green. Lilac is a good option too.
i can’t with you right now, Ariel. 😂 this video is everything. especially that cardinal !
I always think about this at the end of December. I'm so RELIEVED that I'm not the only one. I'd love it to be a dark emerald green since that is my favourite colour. But a dark turquoise might go better with the colours of previous years.

OMG! It is a beautiful dark purple that almost looks black. So happy. I wanted it to be purple but thought it was going to be yellow!
I swear I could listen to you talk about the most random things and still be entertained and engaged
Ariel talking about Goodreads and get distracted by cat and bird. 😂
2BPENNCIL nature man. They get me.
I'm going to go with Purple Amethyst or Lavender? Purple would go nicely with their cream/white/taupe aesthetic
I love your pure joy. Thank you for this video.
I think like a nice mint green
i'm voting it'll be dark red. like the red of the button under the golden text.
I love this. I also love the fact that the 2018 color is basically pantone's color of the year.
i absolutely love how much you thought about this
Now I’m excited to see what color they choose and will be checking goodreads constantly as we get closer to January 1
As you said I am in the category of people who have never thought about the color of the Good Reads reading challenge thing. But I think I'm with you and would like to see a lilac color.
Going into this video I didn't really care about the colour but I effin LOVE how much you care, and now I want to know the colour just so I get get your reaction to it! (and I seriously hope they go with lilac or yellow just so we get to share your exitment); also that bird was super pretty!!
this is.................my favorite booktube video
This is my first video of yours that I’ve watched and I love everything about it. Your personality is amazing🤩
not gonna lie I've been waiting for Ariel's thoughts on this all year. it's one of my fav random things.
You were right on the new blue!
i have literally never thought about this but now I'm invested
This is the kind of quality content I need.
I am LOVING these short more freestyle videos! I would love lilac for the challenge colour!
omg i'm so excited that there's someone else who is as passionate about the goodreads challenge colours as me lol. i always really look forward to seeing what the new colour will be, and i remember being genuinely disappointed in 2017 when the colour was almost the exact same as 2014 hehe.
i like to think we might get a chestnut brown colour. i think it's a colour that fits really well with the previous years, yet it's something quite new. however, i think a green might happen too. they had a very very dark green in 2011 and a turquoise in 2012, so maybe it's time for a comeback.
A variation of teal! A throwback!
1. I love this video and the dedication to graphic design
2. I kinda think it could be like a lightish seafoamy green??? I feel it in my soul.
i literally just went on goodreads last night wanting to know what the 2019 color was gonna be....and now this video?! quality content
I want a greenish blue one.
Girl this is why i love you; the fact that you care as deeply about these booknerdy things as i do. I DO these things, i look at it i wonder every year and i feel FAR more motivated to meet my goal that year. For instance when they did orange i was like oh well this has to happen so i can own that complete icon. Then i won and i was like waw ok cool we're done.

I am being 100 percent serious when I say I want all of your videos to have this energy
I never really thought about this until now. I now care very much about the color of this. Thank you! Such a creative video!
I’m new to your channel and I’m so intrigued by your videos. Love your videos
The new colour changes at midnight on New Year’s! I’m so excited too! I think it’s going to be a deep yellow or a fresh green!
The Cardinal was my favourite part, but really I enjoyed this entire video!
I love cardinals! We don’t often get them around me
Totally with you on the lilac
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE VIDEO ON THE INTERNET. I think they will want to divert from blues, but maybe yellow is too close to the goodreads choice awards, therefore, I preditc a pinky-red, but maybe that's too close to the peachey-orange of this year?
Someone plz tweet the goodreads folks let them know
They did reply on twitter! 🤣
We have probably 10 or so Cardinals that live in my back yard. Love them all dearly. Every once in a while we get a blue jay.
I vote blue jay blue is going to be the next color.
Last yesterday I saw this video of yours and anxiously I wait for this to come out too!!

You are just the sweetest :) love your content!!
I am so grateful for your videos.
Kinda hoping for a nice bright raspberry pink, but a good kelly green badge would also be rad
This feels like when my dear friend explains his progress in Destiny 2, I have no clue why he's so excited but it's delightful to here him ramble about it :D I am delighted by how delighted you are ^_^
I'm watching this on December 31th (2019) and now I NEED to know the 2020 colour.
I absolutely love this. What a ride, can't wait for the big reveal.
I back the lilac but I think it'll be another blue or orange. Or - horror of horrors - an orangey red.
You looks so much happier in this video and the sight of bird was amazing! ❤️
I was about to log out and go to sleep then, I saw your video thumbnail and I wanted to watch it. I am so happy that I clicked on it. It was so good and I couldn't stop smiling. You are amazing. I can't stop smiling and my cheeks are hurting, yet I am happy to go to sleep with a smile. Thank you. Btw, I too think they will go for a yellow -ish color in 2019. Let's wait and see.
Yes, lilac or some purple colour, please, it would be so nice! Also my favourite colour! I'd also like pink but I don't really see that happening...
Oh I love this!! I too care about this so much every year - and I have been hoping for green for so long that my heart broke a little when you said you don't think they'll do green. :'D But I'll definitely be more than okay with lilac, too! I just hope it's not yet another shade of blue ... I mean I like blue, but I also want something different.
I loved everything about this video :') thank you for always being so unapologetically enthusiastic (and hella hipster)
Lilac would be so pretty. I would also love it if they did like a pastel/light pink. (Not too light so the letters can be seen. Of course.)
Thank you for genuinely making me happy 🙂. This was wonderful and cardinals are my favorite bird too!!
I only started goodreads in 2016. Happy to say I've completed all of them with some mid year additions.
I love that you care about this because i too remember my shock with the orange
