Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week theme is Books with Handwriting on the Cover (Or fonts that look like handwriting. Titles, subtitles, covers with letters on them, etc.). There is a publisher that I read quite a lot from who tends to put their author names on the cover in a cursive like font, but I am going to see how far I can get but focussing only books where it is the title that is in cursive. On some covers it might be the whole title but on others it is just words like the or on!
A Venice Summer by Lynne Shelby - I read this a couple of months ago and enjoyed it a lot.
The Palace of Lost Virtue by Anthea Hodgson - This one was sitting on my desk right in my eye line so I couldn't not have this on the list even though I haven't read it yet!
This Book Made Me Think of You by Libby Page - same with this one really
An Italian Island Love Story by Leonie Mack - This might look more like handwriting if you squint at it slightly but it is there!
Hopes and Dreams at the Chocolate Pot Cafe by Jessica Redland - Isn't this cover fun?
The Seaside Book Club by Helen Rolfe - This is a cute cover too!
The Leopard by Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa - This is such an eye catching cover. I am glad that it is the one that got.
The Cottage at the Edge of the Woods by Jane Lovering - The contrast between the block letters and the cursive is very effective as we can see on several covers in this list.
The Resistance Knitting Club by Jenny O'Brien - It's only one word but it still counts!
The Boulangerie on the Corner by Susan Buchanan - And now I want to eat France and eat lots of fresh bread.




Nice selections, thanks for sharing your #TTT
