Top Ten Tuesday

 

Top Ten Tuesday is a fun weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

This week's theme is all about fun holiday/seasonal books, whether they have to do with winter, or Christmas, or snow. 

I didn't really have a plan for this one...I just found ten covers that I thought were fun. Here they are:


Blizzard by John Rocco




The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder




The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey




In A Holidaze by Christina Lauren




Magic Under the Mistletoe by Lucy Coleman




Her Christmas Cowboy by Jessica Clare




Snowbound by Kim Golden




The Christmas Wish List by Heidi Swain




The Illustrated History of the Snowman by Bob Eckstein




Mystery at the Ski Jump by Carolyn Keene




Happy Reading!

  2. Blizzard has such a great cover. I used to love snow days as a kid. My parents worked for the Board of Education and I always knew before anyone else that there wouldn't be school the following day - heck it was up to my Dad to decide. It made me very popular during the winter months - haha.

    I just finished In a Holidaze last night - it was ok. At least it was festive.

    1. Snow days as a kid were the best! We didn't get them too often though because we're so used to snow here in Utah. I haven't read In a Holidaze yet, but it's on my list.

  7. Lovely list! The first two made me smile especially because they remind me of how happy my siblings and I always were when we got a snow day from school. We'd run outside and build snowmen, have snowball fights, make snow forts, etc. So fun.

    Happy TTT!

  20. These look great! I enjoyed In a Holidaze. The Long Winter is one of my favorite all time books. It's amazing what the Ingalls and town of De Smet had to survive that winter!

  25. My idea of seasonal fun is a psycho killer Santa, a Snowbeast or something equally horrible!
