Top Ten Tuesday: Have you read this?

 

 





Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is Books I Recommend to Others the Most.


I am going to mix the theme up a bit. I am going to do some books that I recommend to others, and the rest are books that were recommended to me.


Books I recommend to others



The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley  - I have recommended this author to so many people!


The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley  - I have recommended this author to so many people!

The Lost Love Song by Minnie Darke - Most recently I recommended this to my boss.





Book Lovers by Emily Henry - I also recommended this to my boss. She has since read more Emily Henry books than I have!

The Island of MissingTrees by Elif Shafak - Love this book





Virgin River by Robyn Carr - Back in the day pushed this book on multiple people

Poison Study by Maria V Snyder - I was looking back through my blog and found a post where Bree and I from All the Books I Can Read talked about me recommending this book to her years ago.




Dressmakers of Yarrandarrah Prison by Meredith Jaffe -This was so good!




Books recommended to me by Bree





Chocolate Cake for Breakfast by Danielle Hawkins - Bree and I often recommend book to each other. This author is one that she recommended to me as a great read!

Act Like It by Lucy Parker - And this one!




The Drifter by Anthea Hodgson - We went to an author event, and this was not one of the authors, but it was a book that we talked about while there.

There are plenty more but that's for starters!



Have you read any of these books? What other books would you recommend to me?

  6. I also loved The Island of Missing trees. It was a lovely book that will stay with me forever.

    I've only read one book by Emily Henry, I need to read more.

    Will take a look at some of the other recommendations you've shared!

  7. Someone else mentioned CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR BREAKFAST today. I've been wanting to read it ever since I saw it mentioned on your blog, but I can't find it in my libraries here in the U.S. I think I'm going to just have to buy it on Kindle so I can finally read it. It just seems like a great read!

    Happy TTT!

    1. Possibly Bree from All the Books I Can Read Susan. I will have to go and double check her post but it wouldn't surprise me!

  8. This is a week when we were bound to have multiple books in common considering how often we push books on each other

  9. I read Minnie Darke because of you and The Winter Sea is also one of my most recommended books (at one point, she quoted my review on her website which was gratifying). I also really like Lucy Parker's books although did not think the most recent one was as good as others. I thought Book Lovers was only so so but I did like her other book, People You Meet on Vacation. The others authors I have not read.

  10. Several of these look really good to me too! I hope you enjoy the ones you have not read yet, when you get a chance to read them.

  11. Book Lovers was the first (and so far only) Emily Henry book I read. I hope to squeeze a few more of hers into my read pile this year.

  12. It's great when you have friends to trade recommendations with isn't it? My friend and I are always recommending books to each other, it's usually more me pushing books on her because I want someone to talk about them with, which does work quite well because we have a fairly similar taste in books so it's always stuff I'm fairly certain she'll like, but she has also recommended some good ones to me.
