Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's theme is a Indie Freebie (This topic encompasses a lot: your favorite indie bookstores, indie books, indie authors, indie publishers/presses, indie books on your to-read list, indie authors I read before they became traditionally published, etc.) (submitted by @dark.shelf.of.wonders and Books Are The New Black)
However, I am going to go rogue (again) and I am featuring books with books on the cover!
However, I am going to go rogue (again) and I am featuring books with books on the cover!
The Story Collector by Evie Woods - I am a bit hit and miss on books by this author. I loved The Mysterious Bakery on Rue de Paris. This one....not so much. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't great either! (review)
The Secret Society of Librarians by Kate Thompson - I have, however, loved all the librarian books by Kate Thompson
This Book Made Me Think of You by Libby Page - Loved this one too.
A Study in Sparkling by Jodi McAlister - I haven't read this one yet, but I did recently go to the launch. I did love the previous book in this trilogy so I have high hopes for this one!
The Astral Library by Kate Quinn - I had high hopes for this one too as I had really enjoyed quite a few of Kate Quinn's historical fiction novels, but this one was very different from her normal books. (mini review)
The Secret Christmas Library by Jenny Colgan - A crumbling Scottish castle, a blizzard, a missing book! A lot of fun.
The Storytellers by Sue Heath - I am always very excited to read a new Sue Heath book! There's a new one out soon! (my review)

I've read and enjoyed the Page, Quinn, and Colgan books this year. I feel like a lot of people aren't sure how they feel about the Quinn book because it's not her usual fare.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT for the week: https://readbakecreate.com/eight-thoughts-on-the-hardcover-app/
Exactly. It wasn't a bad book it just wasn't as good as her historical fiction.
DeleteI love a good bookish cover.
ReplyDeleteMe too Lydia!

DeleteI'm all about bookish books, although I actually haven't read any of these...yet!
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
So many books, so little time!
DeleteThe Libby Page book is everywhere. I really need to check it out. I did love The Astral Library, though. So many references to the value of libraries.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Libby Page book! Now I am reading my way through her backlist!
DeleteOh, great idea of theme!
