Top Ten Tuesday: Watery books

 



Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's theme is Books I’d Gladly Throw Into the Ocean which was submitted by Beauty & Her Books. While I could name some books that have annoyed me, I am twisting the theme this week to be books with a water theme.





Light Between Oceans by M L Stedman

The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman




Sea Glass by Maria V Snyder - Must get back to this series this year!

The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See



The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley - Never miss an opportunity to mention this book.



The Lost Lake by Sarah Addison Allen - I think I heard that SAA is working on a new book, which is exciting!




The Lake House by Kate Morton



Lake in the Clouds by Sarah Donati - Not my favourite in this series, but still a good read!




The Lake of Dead Languages by Carol Goodman



Bila Yarrudhanggalangdhuray by Anita Heiss - This is a book that doesn't come out until next month but I read it last week and really enjoyed it. The title translates to River of Dreams

  1. Hi Marg! Love your twist! The Ocean at the end of the lane was a brilliant read and The light between oceans broke my heart on so many different levels. Still loved it though.

    I also twisted the prompt a bit! Ten Books I'd gladly throw into the ocean (for the mermaids to read)

  3. I’ve read the Morton, Gaiman and Steadman books. The Light Between the Oceans had me up past midnight reading to finish, very emotional book.

    Thanks for more great suggestions!

  4. I love your twist on the topic so much that I almost did it myself! Ocean-themed books always appeal to me and I've read several of these.

    Happy TTT!

  5. Elza Reads let me know we did very similar twists this week, but I love that we didn't even duplicate any books. ;) The Light Between the Oceans has been on my shelf for years. I really need to get to it. <3

    1. I think there were a couple of other Goodman books that I could have chosen that fit the theme too Iliana!

    1. It was really good Greg, and is written from an indigenous perspective.
