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 Books That Would Make Great Newspaper Headlines, a topic suggested by. . . me! What a great idea, I thought when I submitted it. What a tricky topic, I thought once I sat down to come up with my list. . .
Links from the titles will take you to the book description on Goodreads or my review.
Firstly, today’s political news:
- One of Our Ministers Is Missing by Alan Johnson (Let’s hope it’s the Home Secretary)

Now, over to our crime reporter:
- News of the Dead by James Robertson
