Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each week a new theme is suggested for bloggers to participate in. Create your own Top Ten list that fits that topic – putting your unique spin on it if you want. Everyone is welcome to join but please link back to The Artsy Reader Girl in your own Top Ten Tuesday post.
This week’s topic doesn’t appeal to me, so I’m picking one from a couple of weeks ago that I missed: Books with Weather Events/Words in the Title/on the Cover
(I’m picturing a list of titles with weather-related words in them like storm, rain, blizzard, flood, lightning, hail, snow, wind, etc. OR covers with lightning/storms in the picture.)
Matthew Reilly – Ice Station
Carlos Ruiz Zafón – The Shadow Of The Wind
Cecilia Ahern – Where Rainbows End
Stephen King – The Mist
Richard Castle – Heat Wave
Barbara Sophia Tammes – A Blueprint for Your Castle in the Clouds
Guy de la Bédoyère – Gods with Thunderbolts
Sally Malcolm – Permafrost
Rick Riordan – Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief
Jaimie Admans – Snowflakes At The Little Christmas Tree Farm
That was legit a lot harder than I thought it would be. I figured I’d have read loads of books with storm, thunder, or lightning in the title but no! I did have fun scrolling through 13 years of GoodReads books read though!
The Mist was such a good read.
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
I haven’t read it in ages, I’m feeling the need to re-read after including it in the post
I’m surprised I didn’t think of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief! Great choices. Here’s my TTT: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2023/10/17/top-ten-tuesday-books-with-weather-events-in-the-title-toptentuesday/
The Lightning Thief was the first one my partner and I thought of!
Ice Station sounds good.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
I’m about 35% of the way through and so far it’s pretty much all been one crazy action scene – it’s so OTT and fun, but I’m not quite as engaged with it as I was Temple
Great post Cassie. Here is my post-https://paigesofnovels.com/2023/10/17/top-ten-nine-tuesday-bookish-jobs-i-would-do-for-free/.
This one was harder for me than I had expected it to be, as well! Though I also made it harder by only using books I’ve read instead of including books from my TBR as well.
My TTT this week: https://bookwyrmknits.com/2023/10/17/top-ten-tuesday-under-the-weather/
Those were all books that I’ve previously read as well – and one that I’m currently reading 🙂
Snowflakes At The Little Christmas Tree Farm cover is so cute. I forget Percy Jackson in my list 😆
The book is just as adorable – I highly recommend it! 😀
Why are snowflakes so cute? I love how that cover makes them even cuter.
I really enjoyed Ice Station!
I’m about 35% of the way through – just got to the end of that first epic action scene and can’t wait to see what happens next… I’m not quite as engaged with it as I was Temple but I’m still having a lot of fun reading it
This is a tough, but fun topic. I actually had eight in my blog’s list, so at least I only had to go looking for two more. The funny thing is that when I thought about it, they were titles I should have known about. Hope you have a great week.
This is a great list! I’ve only read Percy Jackson, and haven’t heard of most of these, but they do look really interesting. And the topic was really hard!
Shadows of the Wind is waiting on my bookshelf. Someday I’ll get to it! I thought Admans books was very sweet!
It’s always funny when you think a topic is going to be easy and then it just isn’t. Like what you came up with though!
