to her bed.
Choosing the nightstand to the right side of the bed, Julianna sits everything on it. She pulls back the thick comforter. It is embroidered with the same star and circle scene she seen in the upstairs carpet. She crawls into her bed, fluffs the two feather pillows, and places them against the headboard. Sitting her back to them, Julianna maneuvers her legs under the comforter and pulls it up to her waistline. She reaches over and picks up her mother's diary. She plops another chip into her mouth before opening the book.

Dear Diary,
I have discovered why mom only allowed me to look at the white tag books in the library. They are basically a general knowledge set. And I am proud to write that I have figured out what the other colors are for. Well, I think I have.
I believe the tags have something to do with the doors down the hallway. That's the good news. The bad news is that I have no idea what to do. Mom gave me her diary in the white room. I have already read some of the white books. Better to read than to clean. I'm starting to think she knew I'd choose to read over cleaning. “Well, Theresa. You can help clean the library, or you can read a book,” she'd say. And it just so happens that every single one of them had a white tag.
I guess I'll start reading the rest. There are so many of them. Maybe, I've slept over a few of them. But what mom doesn't know won't hurt her.
Sincerely,
Theresa

Dear Diary,
Man I'm good. I am knocking three books out every week. I have figured something else out that I never noticed as a child. The white tags are not the same. None of the colors are.
Each color has different shades to it. The very last book of each color matches the shade of the door exactly. None of the other shades are an exact match. And the next color tag to read is a tiny perfect mix of the current color and the last tag which matches its door. White and dark-yellow leaves light-yellow. My next tag color.
The last book of the white tags I am reading now. The book tells about colors and their relevance to the world. It explains about moods, environment, personalities, and all kinds of neat stuff. Color shading is the chapter which put it all together for me.
Sorry, I haven't written in a while. As you can see I've been really busy. Mom has told me it is mandatory to write to you at least once a month. So, I’ve wrote. Bye.
Sincerely,
Theresa

Dear Diary,
The first yellow tag book explains the door keys. I got excited until I kept reading. According to this book, I should already have the stupid yellow key. This blows. It means I must have missed the clues when I pretended to read. Or I read about it and didn't catch on. Either way it blows. It's back to the beginning of the white set for
