Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.
The rules are simple:
- Each Tuesday, Jana assigns a new topic. Create your own Top Ten list that fits that topic – putting your unique spin on it if you want.
- Everyone is welcome to join but please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own Top Ten Tuesday post.
- Add your name to the Linky widget on that day’s post so that everyone can check out other bloggers’ lists.
- Or if you don’t have a blog, just post your answers as a comment.
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books that Feature Travel. Because I like to make things hard for myself, the books on my list all feature different modes of travel, including a few outlandish ones. Links from the title will take you to my review.
- The Salt Path by Raynor Winn (on foot)
- The Golden Girls’ Getaway by Judy Leigh (motor home)
- Three Women and a Boat by Anne Youngson (canal boat)
- The Night Ship by Jess Kidd (ship)
- How To Be Brave by Louise Beech (lifeboat)
- James by Percival Everett (raft)
- The Swallowed Man by Edward Carey (inside a whale)
- The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley (time machine)
- Mailed Fist by John Foley (tank)
- Orbital by Samantha Harvey (spacecraft)

I featured different modes of travel on my list today, too, although you came up with a better variety. Travel by time machine definitely sounds fun 🙂
Happy TTT!

I liked James so much that I’m about to lead a discussion about it with my book club, but somehow I forgot to include it on my list.
