Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. It’s the second day of winter here in Australia, and while many of my international friends would laugh at my Australian version of winter (which never sees snow and only gets down to freezing on the coldest of nights, and rarely then), I have to say I am definitely feeling the cold today. I feel a bit cheated, really, that I have to endure cold weather without the benefit of snow. In my mind, if you’re going to live with the discomfort of cold, you might as well have some snow to make it worthwhile.

So while the majority of Top Ten Tuesday participants today will be sharing books that give off summer vibes (the official TTT for today), I’m sharing ten covers that most definitely give off winter vibes—and have some snow to show for it!

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. And I’m especially glad to be back after a two-week hiatus—the first, because I was super busy and just didn’t have time to post, the second because my website was down. 😒

But I’m so glad I’m back on board this week, because I love opening lines! In fact, I participate in a weekly feature called First Line Friday, hosted by Hoarding Books blog, so I’m going to be spoiled for choice! But I will try to whittle my selection down to ten favourites. So here goes…

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. Today’s title is a bit of fun: Titles That Would Make Good Band Names. Considering my taste in music is mostly classical, I haven’t given much thought to band names before, but a quick scroll through my Kindle library yielded plenty of options.

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt sent me all the way back to the beginning of my Goodreads “Read” list: Books I Enjoyed But Don’t Mention Often Enough. According to Goodreads, each of these books was a 5-star read for me, and looking back through my list was like rediscovering old friends. “Oh, I remember this one! Ooh, I really need to read this one again. I loved the hero in this one. All the feels!” and so on…

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was a little open ended: Books I Bought/Borrowed Because… I love getting book recommendations from friends, and I’ve been introduced to many books that I would not have otherwise found because of recommendations, so it was a natural choice for me to give you some of the books that have been recommended to me over the years.

Some of these are quite recent recommendations (The Fireman’s Secret and Simply Starstruck), others are recommendations from years ago (Faro’s Daughter and Frenchman’s Creek). Some I’ve already read and enjoyed, others are sitting on my Kindle waiting for me to pick them up. And once again, it’s a rather eclectic list!

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl. Today’s prompt really got me thinking: 10 Signs You’re a Book Lover. I mean, you’d think it was pretty obvious, wouldn’t you? I’m a book lover, ergo, I should know all the signs. But it actually took me a bit of thought to come up with ten.

So here they are. Ten signs you’re a book lover. Let me know how many you identify with!
