Hi everyone and welcome to another edition of Top 10 Tuesday! Hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl, it features a different bookish related theme each week. To be honest, I’m not really feeling this week’s theme! Living where I do, the weather themes never fit and there are definitely not any flowers blooming here atm. Winter is really steaming towards us, you can feel it. The mornings have all been single digits. I also used a few examples in a nature-cover theme recently so I’m going to try & find some different books to feature here.
Books With Flowers
On The Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta
Also known as just Jellicoe Road in the US. This is one of my favourite books of all time. Melina Marchetta is one of my favourite authors, of all time. If you haven’t read this, there’s no point really telling you anything about it, the more blind you go in, the better it all is. Just know it’s set at a boarding school and there’s a kind of….war games. But it’s not really about that at all. And have tissues.
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See
I have read two phenomenal books by Lisa See: The Island of Sea Women and Lady Tan’s Circle of Women. I haven’t read this one but I definitely intend to.
The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle
Not his most famous book – actually I have never read this one. But the art style is unmistakable.
The Peach Keeper by Sarah Addison Allen
I went through such a SAA stage about……12 years ago? She writes a lot of beautiful stories where the characters tend to be really connected to nature and earth magic. This is my favourite cover.
Throne Of The Fallen by Kerri Maniscalco
I have this one on my TBR shelf. I liked the Kingdom Of The Wicked trilogy but it did really change in tone after book 1! I feel like this one will probably have the same tone as books 2&3 in that trilogy.
Emily Wilde’s Map Of The Otherlands by Heather Fawcett
Either of the Emily books would work but I picked this one because I felt it more fits the autumn vibe we have going on where I live – the mushrooms and the little bits and pieces. We don’t have a lot of autumn changing trees here (what we do have are imports that have been brought over from the northern hemisphere) but what we do have are currently changing.
Hello Stranger by Katherine Center
I read The Bodyguard and really loved it at the beginning of this year so this one is on my Wishlist to see if I like all of her books. I’m also interested in the one she has coming out later this year as well.
With The Fire On High by Elizabeth Acevedo
I love this book! Elizabeth Acevedo’s writing is just so spectacular. I also feel like this one gives more autumn vibes with the colour scheme.
The Stationery Shop Of Tehran by Marjan Kamali
This book is a massive favourite across the board, from what I’ve seen. I liked it but I didn’t fall in love with it like so many did.
Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams
The main female character in this is a florist, so flowers feature quite prominently. I thought this was a really sweet and fun romance.
And there you go – 10 books with flowers on the covers. Have you read any of these? Or if not are there any that catch your eye?
