Errm, far be from me to complain about including Dune novels in a list of, err, NON-Dune novels, but wouldn't it be better if the list was without them? Putting them in a brighter color only makes it worse by hightening them. You'd be better off ignoring them so you can see at a glance what books you've already included.
Also, design wise(I'm sure you're planning anyway, as it's WIP but edvising doesn't hurt...much), you should perhaps give each book a little entry(title with year etc, and a synopsis).

In memory of Perach, who suffered and died needlessly.
I wish I could have been with you that one last time.

Dune Messiah, 1960, novel.
