#TopTenTuesday Long Book Titles


Top Ten Tuesday

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 topic is Super Long Book Titles. As is my custom, I decided to go off at a bit of a tangent so my list contains five book titles that suggest distance and five whose full titles may be longer than commonly thought.

This week’s topic is Book Covers with Autumn Colours/Vibes. To me, autumn conjures up visions of harvest time, falling leaves, misty mornings, ghost stories and stormy weather. Here are some book covers which capture a few of those things. Links from the titles will take you to my reviews or the book description on Goodreads.

Hermit by S.R. White
Green Hands by Barbara Whitton
The Whispering House by Elizabeth Brooks

Witch Wood by John Buchan
The Diabolical Bones by Bella Ellis
A House of Ghosts by W.C. Ryan
How To Belong by Sarah Franklin
Those Who Know by Alis Hawkins

The Storm by Amanda Jennings
