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 a freebie on the theme of book covers. I’ve chosen books with forms of transport on the cover. Links from each title will take you to my review.
- A Sunlit Weapon by Jacqueline Winspear (aircraft)
- Love Lane by Patrick Gale (car)
- The Night Ship by Jess Kidd (ship)
- Tin Man by Sarah Winman (bicycle)
- The Romantic by William Boyd (balloon)
- Love and Miss Harris by Peter Maughan (bus)
- The Redeemed by Tim Pears (horse)
- Possible Happiness by David Ebenbach (subway train)
- Mailed Fist by John Foley (tank)
- A Ration Book Daughter by Jean Fullerton (pram)











We have lots of balloons launched in Bath on summer evenings. It looks wonderful but I’ll never find the courage to go up in one.

Me neither. I get vertigo and I don’t fancy the random nature of the landing.
