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 Favorite Book Quotes but I’ve done that one several times before so I’ve come up with my own topic: books that are set in workplaces. Links from each title will take you to my review.
Hospital – Sometimes People Die by Simon Stephenson
Hotel – Hokey Pokey by Kate Mascarenhas
Antarctic research station – Cold, Cold Heart by Christine Poulson
Brothel – The Wolf Den by Elodie Harper
Library – The Reading List by Sara Nisha Adams
Factory – Night Shift by Inez Holden
Bookshop – Mr Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan
Department store – Business As Usual by Jane Oliver & Ann Stafford
Post office – The Lost Letters of William Woolf by Helen Cullen
School – Madam by Phoebe Wynne
What books have you read set in workplaces? The stranger, the better!
This week we’re invited to come up with a list on the theme of May Flowers. For me, this month is all about getting into my garden: digging, weeding, planting, planning and, importantly, sitting and reflecting.
