Top Ten Tuesday: Water-y!

 

Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader GirlThis week the theme is April Showers (Interpret this however you’d like: rainy day reads, books that make you cry, books that give you happy tears, books to wash away a bad reading experience, books set in rainy places, books with rain/raindrops/umbrellas on the cover, blue book covers, etc.). I am choosing to focus on water and rain!



Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen - I haven't thought about this book for the longest time!

The Weight of Water by Anita Shreve - I am not sure I remember anything about this book

The Seduction of Water by Carol Goodman - I read a number of Carol Goodman books back in the day!

The Water Horse by Julia Gregson - I read a few of this authors books but it's been a long time since I did so.

Fish Out of Water by Mary Janice Davidson - I only read this book because the author was coming to Australia as a guest of honour at a reader convention I was going to many, many years ago!



A Life on Pittwater by Susan Duncan - Next time I go to Sydney I wouldn't mind going out to Pittwater. It sounds like a beautiful place  

Water Under the Bridge by Lily Malone  - This is part of a trilogy set in a small town in Western Australia

Fresh Water for Flowers by Valerie Perrin - I read this for last year's Paris in July. I have a couple more books from her to read at some point

The Right Attitude to Rain by Alexander McCall Smith - This is part of the Isabel Dalhousie series set in Edinburgh

The Rainfall Market by You Yeong-Gwang - This is a fun Korean fantasy novel

  1. Weird timing. Just yesterday a new friend asked me if I've ever read Water for Elephants. And now here it is on your list. Yes, I have, but years ago.

  2. A great list. I struggled this week and had to settle for blue covers!

    Have a great week!

  4. Fish Out of Water was such a fun read! I've read Water for Elephants, but it was ages ago and don't remember much about it. Here's my TTT for the week: https://readbakecreate.com/the-ws-have-it-ten-titles-starting-with-w/

  5. I want to read Rainfall Market just because of that cover alone! I also want the porch on the cover of A Life on Pittwater.
