Top Ten Tuesday

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

This week's theme is supposed to be Books on My Winter 2021 To-Read List. But I wasn't feeling it, so I decided to go rogue and just do Wintry Reads instead.



1. Winter Frost by R. D. Wingfield



2. The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon



3. The Ocean in Winter by Elizabeth de Veer



4. Winter's Bone by Daniel Woodrell 




5. The Winter Girls by Roger Stelljes




6. The Winter Road by Adrian Selby




7. Wintersong by S. Jae-Jones




8. The Winter Cottage by Rachael Lucas




9. Winter Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher




10. Final Winter by Iain Rob Wright



Happy Reading!

  1. Great twist. I first thought of doing something else but there are so many reading lists I'm still "working on", in the end I combined that all and ended up with TTTT this week.

  2. Oh my goodness, how I love a good wintery read, more than summer reads to be honest, although I like those too. I have Winter Solstice on my Kindle to read in 2022.

    1. Wintry reads are the best...especially when you can read them bundled up in a warm blanket on your couch with a cup of hot chocolate nearby. :D

  3. Just grabbed my bathrobe with all those chilly titles and cover art...LOL Seriously, great list. I've read Winter Bone and just thought about purchasing the audio of Winter Solstice last night (one I have been meaning to read/listen to).

    1. I love Winter Solstice, but then I love most of Rosamunde Pilcher's books. :)

  4. So many titles with "winter" in them! This was a fun way to go rogue. I think Wintersong is on my TBR somewhere. The Winter Cottage has a cute cover.

    1. I'm intrigued by Wintersong; and The Winter Cottage just looks like fun. I haven't read either of them, but I want to. :)

  5. That's an intriguing list, maybe good for a winter read.

  6. I did the same thing with this week's TBR. I'm looking at 'The Winter Cottage.' Thanks for the suggestion.

    1. We're expecting snow tomorrow...and I'm not excited for the morning commute. Even though it does look pretty on the mountains. :)

  9. These definitely have a winter vibe. Such pretty covers, too. I would like to read The Winter Girls and The Winter Cottage. Hope you get a chance to read any that you haven't.

    1. I haven't read Wintersong; but I'm sorry it wasn't a better book. It's a great cover, though.

      Delete
  13. That's a whole lot of winter...as a crime fiction fan, I always find novels of that genre that are set in the dead of winter to be the spookiest. Probably because I'm totally uncomfortable as soon as the temperature drops below 60 degrees. LOL

    1. Winter settings do add some good spooky atmosphere to thrillers and crime novels. I know I'm always drawn to a wintry setting in a book. Even though I really don't like the cold myself. :)

  14. Great list! I'd add Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey

  15. Great list! I was just thinking today with my Free library opening up in January I should try to get some winter themed books for it :) Great suggestions! https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2021/12/top-ten-tuesday-books-on-my-winter-tbr.html

    1. Winter's Bone is gritty, but I liked it. I loved the movie they made of it even more. :)

    1. And I only listed ten of them. I probably could have easily listed at least ten more.

  22. I love wintry settings and especially thrillers/ paranormals set in a wintry environment! That second one looks familiar I think I've looked at it at some point!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Winter People is pretty eerie. I liked it. And wintry settings are the best when you want to add some tension to the story. :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. I like that all of these titles have the word "Winter" in them. ❄❄❄

  25. These are all new to me and they sound wonderful, especially The Winter Cottage and Winter People.

    1. I've read Winter People and it's a pretty suspenseful and eerie read. And I think the Winter Cottage looks like a lot of fun, too. :)

  26. I've to say the winter setting and/or title is a popular choice in most genres, isn't it? And The Winter People remains as one of my favourite McMahon books. :)
