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 favorite bookstores, or bookstores you'd love to visit. But I don't really have a favorite bookstore any more. So I went a little rogue and decided to do Favorite Bookshop Books instead. 

Here they are:


How to Find Love in a Bookshop by Veronica Henry




The Lost For Words Bookshop by Stephanie Butland




The Lost and Found Bookshop by Susan Wiggs




The Bookish Life of Nina Hill by Abbi Waxman




The Bookshop on the Corner by Jenny Colgan




The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald




The Last Bookshop in London by Madeline Martin


 

The English Bookshop by Janis Wildy




The Little Bookstore of Big Stone Gap by Wendy Welch




The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop by Lewis Buzbee



Happy Reading!

  5. Looks like we had the same idea this week, Lark. I absolutely love it that you also chose bookshop books, and we only have one in common, Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend. I'm looking forward to looking into your other books.

    My TTT this week is on books about bookshops.

  7. This is so good. I didn't have any bookstores to highlight either, so I went with something else. But, this is a terrific twist on the topic. I love that bookstore that Nina Hill works in!

  12. This is such a popular pivot for today's topic. I'm amazed at how many books feature bookshops. Hardly any of the books I've read even mention books and reading, lol.

    1. :D I got lucky that I'd read so many bookshop books because it made putting this list together super easy.

  13. I almost did this same topic. It's a fun one! I love books about and set in bookshops, but I've actually only read two of these. I'll definitely look into these others.

    Happy TTT!

    1. That's a hard one! Probably How to Find Love in a Bookshop, The Last Bookshop in London, and The Bookish Life of Nina Hill. I loved those three. :D

  24. What a great take on this week's theme! It stumped me a bit so I skipped it. The Last Bookshop in London was one of my favorite books of 2021 and I loved The Bookshop on the Corner. I have The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, How to Find Love in a Bookshop, and The Lost and Found Bookshop but all of these look great!

  27. Another wonderful Top Ten--I've only read The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop and have the Wagon Wheel one, and the rest, of course, appeal to me tremendously. What an excellent genre!

  29. Bookish themes are always so fun to read, aren't they? I notice that "bookshop" titles are as popular as the months titles. ;)
