Dark Colors
Help each other out and add titles where they have light colors on the cover. Use of lighter colors on the cover is allowed but about 80% of the cover should be from the dark part of the color chart, bottom often having hex codes starting with numbers below 5 such as black, burgundy and dark blue... If it looks dark in your eyes, you may use it for this Essential. Feel free to send us a link of your own list with titles that fit the description to this Essential
Note: Covers sometimes change, it is enough to know that there is a cover to the title that has dark shades on it at one point, but if you want to be on the safe side, you can add a picture.
