This week's theme is BOOKS WITH OCCUPATIONS IN THE TITLE.
I tried to find 10 books that I've read with 10 different occupations in the title...here's what I came up with:
- The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
- The Archivist by Martha Cooley
- The Geographer's Library by Jon Fasman
- The Librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe
- The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry
- The Egyptologist by Arthur Phillips
- The Matchmaker by Rexanne Becnel
- The Teacher by Frieda McFadden
- Eddy Johnson, Book Dealer by John Wiley
- As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust by Alan Bradley
- Stardoc by S.L. Viehl
- The Cinderella Governess by Georgie Lee
I know...I listed 12 books, not 10. But I couldn't decide which 2 to not include, so I just decided to include them all. Because I enjoyed reading them all. And I liked that every occupation in each of these books is so unique.
Happy Reading!
What a creative list! I love it! I hope you’re having a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. It's been good so far. :D
DeleteA lace reader sounds like a very niche occupation.

I just like the sound of being a lace reader. Though I expect it wouldn't pay much. ;D Thanks for commenting!
DeleteJust perused one of my shelves and found "The Exhibitionist." Didn't love the book when I read it, but it fits the bill!
ReplyDeleteThe Exhibitionist would totally go with this list! It's a great title, even if you didn't love the book.
DeleteWhat an interesting list you have. The only one of those that I've read is the first one on the list and, as I recall, I quite enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteI loved The Historian. But then, I also really love Dracula.
DeleteOh, this is fun. Now I wonder what books I've read with occupations in the title.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to see how many occupations I could come up with just perusing my shelves and Read list. :D
DeleteI love your list!! I still want to read The Historian and have noticed it on other TTT posts!!
ReplyDeleteThe Historian is one of my favs. :D
DeleteWhat a great list.

Thanks, Regine. :D
DeleteThanks for the list.
ReplyDelete:D I had fun putting it together. And it was really easy, which was a bonus.
DeleteYou did great with this prompt! I looked at it and thought I'd have to do some digging and didn't have the time. I read and loved The Historian years ago! Great list, Lark! :)
ReplyDeleteI loved The Historian, too. And this was one of the easier TTTs for me for some reason. (If they're not easy I tend not to do them either.)
DeleteYou did great, you have so many unique ones! I would have had a hard time narrowing it down as well :)
ReplyDeleteStory of my life...I always seem to have too many books. ;D
DeleteThat's a great list! Sometimes it's difficult to stick to 10. I enjoyed The Historian and As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust.
