Top Ten Tuesday: Books with Weather Events in the Title

 

 

Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week is a Halloween Freebie. However, in October 2023 one of the themes was Books with Weather Events in the Title/on the Cover. At the time, I put this list of books together but I never got around to adding the commentary and pictures or posting it....until now! It's a bit scary that it has been sitting in draft all this time. See what I did there?

I am starting with some wind and storms, then moving onto sun, rain and snow.

Ill Wind by Rachel Caine - Rachel Caine has a whole series of books called the Weather Warden series that I could have picked for this prompt. This is the first book in the series. (my review)

Season of Storms by Susanna Kearsley - One of the lesser know Kearsley books but, as always, I couldn't resist the urge to include one of her books. Unusually for Kearsley this book is set in Rome.

A Taste of Italian Sunshine by Leonie Mack - Wine making in Italy. Yes please!  (my review)

Under a Greek Sun by Mandy Baggot - Moving on from Italy, this is set on a Greek island   (my review)

An Island in the Sun by Kate Frost - Another country, another island. This time it was Portugal. (my review)

Floodtide by Judy Nunn - I read this years ago and don't remember much about it other than one particular scene. Looking at my rating on Goodreads I didn't like it at all, but the title fits the theme. 

The Right Attitude to Rain by Alexander McCall Smith - This is the third book in the Isabel Dalhousie mystery series set in Edinburgh. (my review)

Midnight in the Snow by Karen Swan - In the past this author put out a summer book and a winter book. Guess which one this was.

Snowy Mountain Cattleman by Alissa Callen - The Snowy Mountains are actually a place in this instance, but they do get a lot of snow. This is the second book in the Bundilla series.

The Secret of Snow by Viola Shipman - I still haven't gotten over not enjoying the last Viola Shipman book I read. This one wasn't bad though.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books with One Word Titles

 

 

Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week is the theme is books with one word titles!

Hogfather by Terry Pratchett - I have reread this book at Christmas time for the last couple of years. Chances are I will reread it again at the end of this year.

Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell - My first and, so far, only Maggie O'Farrell. I do need to read more!

Sweetheart by Sarah Mayberry - I love Sarah Mayberry's books and this was a fun read.

Jilted by Rachael Johns - Another favourite Aussie author!

Circe by Madeleine Miller - Second week in a row that I have had Circe in my TTT

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi - I will always remember reading this while I was in South Africa.

Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld - Feels like a long time since I read this book.

Eyrie by Tim Winton - I haven't read that many Tim Winton books. I feel like I should read more but I haven't loved the ones that I have read.

Bellagrand by Paullina Simons - I loved The Bronze Horseman. This book is the second prequel. Unfortunately, I didn't love it anywhere near as much.

Floodtide by Judy Nunn - Another Aussie author, and another one I have only read one book by.

Have you read any of these books with one word titles?
