Top Ten Tuesday - Books I Read About Vacations

 

 


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 Read on Vacation. It might surprise you to know that when I am on holidays, I don't really read a lot. I read a Rachel Johns book when we were on our way to Vanuatu and I read Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi when I went to Africa a few years ago, but other than that I can't really read while on holidays.


So my list today is books about holidays/vacations





Rachel's Holiday by Marian Keyes -  This one isn't really about a holiday, but the word is in the title so it counts!

You and Me on Vacation by Emily Henry - Poppy and Alex have done several trips together but this one just feels different!





13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson - I love the cover on this one.


Sixty Summers by Amanda Hampson - Three friends travel around Europe for a summer.




Almost French by Sarah Turnbull - A holiday fling turns into a whole new life in Paris for this Australian woman.

A Wedding in Tuscany by Sandy Barker - This is the fifth book in a series which is called The Holiday Romance series





The Jam Queens  by Josephine Moon - Whilst the title doesn't suggest it is about a holiday, one of the big parts of this book is a trip on the Ghan train from Darwin to Adelaide. That's a trip I would love to do.



The Road Trip by Beth O'Leary - I do enjoy a good road trip myself.






Along for the Ride by Mimi Grace - This isn't really a holiday story, but the start of the story is two people who dislike each other going on a road trip across country.



How to Mend a Broken Heart by Rachael Johns - Features a woman who goes on an extended holiday to New Orleans! Bought back lots of memories of my own holiday there a few years ago.



Thanks for stopping by my Top Ten Tuesday post.

    1. I think this one was an easy one to twist. I had several ideas but a couple were ones I had already done.

  8. Thanks for stopping by my blog - I'm a little late getting around to everyone....it's been a week. :) You've got a fun collection of titles here - I read the Emily Henry but here it's called People We Meet on Vacation. Weird that even the title is different.

  9. Nice theme and I have read several of these. I was disappointed in The Roadtrip although had really liked her earlier book, I think called The Flatshare. I do agree it can be a great concept for a book!

    1. The Flatshare is still my favourite book by Beth O'Leary.
