Top Ten Tuesday: Books with Yellow Covers

 

 

 

 





Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is Characters from Different Books Who Should Team Up (or date, be friends with, etc.) (Submitted by Cathy @ WhatCathyReadNext) but I am going off piste!


Last weekend we went to an exhibition of French artist Pierre Bonnard. We saw a poster there that he created in the 1890s and I am seriously contemplating buying a print to put in our dining room. It's a bit odd really because yellow is not usually my colour, and the poster was very yellow.


So here are ten books with yellow covers.





Honey: Recipes from a Beekeepers Kitchen by Amy Newsome - I recently bought this cookbook!

Heartbake: A Bittersweet Memoir by Charlotte Ree - This is on my TBR list!





The Wonderful Thing About Phoebe Rose by Josephine Moon - I recently had this out from the library but had to return it unread unfortunately!


Yellowcake by Margo Lanagan - I read this short story collection years ago and loved it!





Half a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie  - Gosh, it's been a long time since I read this book (my review)


The Yellow House by Patricia Falvey - Another book I read years ago.




A Red Herring Without Mustard by Alan Bradley
- Among the many series that I keep on saying I really need to get back to soon is the Flavia de Luce mystery series, featuring a precocious young girl as the sleuth. This is book 3 in the series.


Yellowface by R F Kuang - This book seems to be everywhere at the moment, so I had to include it in a list of books with yellow covers





Miss Cecily's Recipes for Exceptional Ladies by Vicky Zimmerman - I bought this book a while ago but still haven't read it! 


Lemon Meringue Pie Murder by Joanne Fluke - Another book I read years ago!

Can you think of any other books with yellow covers?

Top Ten Tuesday: Books on my summer TBR pile

 



Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is Books on My Winter 2022-2023 To-Read List. Of course, it is summer for me but then again I am goign to be spending a number of weeks in the Northern Hemisphere soon so maybe it is that my theme should be summer/winter to read list. Or maybe I should say my first quarter reading list and that way I don't have to worry about what the weather is!




The Night Ship by Jess Kidd - I started this a while ago but I intend to read it while I am on holidays.

The Hidden Beach by Karen Swan - This is another book I have already started, but I really need to finish this one before I go on holidays which means I need to hurry up.





The Drifter by Anthea Hodgson - This was recommended to me recently with very high praise!

The Work Wives by Rachael Johns - This has been on my TBR list for a while now!




One French Summer by Gillian Harvey - This is for an upcoming blog tour

The Flame Tree by Siobhan Daiko - And this one!




An Island in the Sun by Kate Frost - Another blog tour book!

Finding Refuge in Bellbird Bay by Maggie Christensen - And this one too!





Miss Cecily's Recipes for Exceptional Ladies by Vicky Zimmerman - This is the current Cook the Books selection.

The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan - And this is the next selection for Cook the Books
