Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's theme is Books with nature on the cover. A month or so ago, I did a post which featured lots of water on the covers. It surprised me to see that I actually only reused one of those covers, and yet, I still have several more watery covers to share this week.
Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen - I thought I would start with a garden which instantly brings me to Garden Spells
The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert - I love the cover on this book, and I was really surprised when I read it as I wasn't sure what to expect.
Last Bridge Before Home by Lily Malone - There are so many rural romances that I could have featured, but I decided to echo the river scene in these two choices.
Virgin River by Robyn Carr - The reality is that I could have picked just about any book from the Virgin River series. One day I would love to visit the area where these books are set.
The Survivors by Jane Harper - My next two choices are both Australian authors, both with ocean scenes. This first one though is the wild sea.
Tiny White Lies by Fiona Palmer - And this is the calmer sea.
Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens - I think there's a certain synergy between these two covers even though they are completely different types of water.
Bila Yarraghanggalangdhuray by Anita Heiss - This is my repeat cover, mainly because I need to hurry up and finish writing the review for this book.
The Burial by Courtney Collins - The covers for these two remind me of the time we spent looking at the stars at Uluru a month or so ago.
The Brightest Star in the Sky by Marian Keyes - Sirius I think?
Virgin River is set in a real place? It's nice when you can actually visit the location.
ReplyDeleteThere isn't a specific place called Virgin River Gwen, but it is set in the Pacific NW so I wouldn't mind visiting up in that area.
DeleteOoh I really like Garden Spells. The Survivors is nice as well.
ReplyDeleteI still need to read The Survivors!
DeleteThe Anita Heiss book title really cracks me up. Books I Recommend About Nature and Trees
ReplyDeleteIt's an indigenous title Anne. It translates as River of Dreams
DeleteGarden Spells looks amazing.

DeleteGreta covers. I have had Jane Harper's latest on my Kindle and can't believe I haven't started it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't either Tina!
DeleteI nearly included a Sarah Addison Allen but I couldn't decide which one!
ReplyDeleteI went with Garden spells because ...garden!
DeleteI enjoy watery covers, too. I think it's interesting how water can be used to convey different moods and vibes - it can be tranquil, it can be rough, it can be terrifying...all depending on how it's photographed/illustrated.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT (on a Thursday)!
Just like going to watch the water at the beach or in a lake right Susan!
