Top Ten Tuesday: Ahoy Mateys! Ten Books with “Sea” in the Title

 

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.  Top Ten Tuesday has been one of my favorite memes ever since I started blogging, so huge thanks to Jana for taking over the hosting duties!

This week’s TTT topic is Books with Geographical Terms in the Title (for example: mountain, island, latitude/longitude, ash, bay, beach, border, canyon, cape, city, cliff, coast, country, desert, epicenter, hamlet, highway, jungle, ocean, park, sea, shore, tide, valley, etc.  When I started looking on my shelves for books that fit the topic, I noticed that half the titles I found had the word “sea” in them, so I took that as a sign and set out to find five more “sea” titles.  Below is what I came up with.

Ten Books with “Sea” in the Title

 

 

 

1. THE STARLESS SEA by Erin Morganstern

2. SALT TO THE SEA by Ruta Sepetys

    Great list! Of all the geographical terms, I think ‘sea’ and ‘city’ were the most popular on my list of books. I loved Cerulean Sea though I still have a majority of these sitting on my TBR waiting to be read. Can’t wait!

    I haven’t read any of these, but I think I would have to start with Seafire OR The Girl The Sea Gave Back. Those covers are just gorgeous!

    Great list of titles with geographical terms in them. The Starless Sea, Sea of Tranquility and The House In The Cerulean Sea are all my TBR and I can’t wait to read them. I hope I like them as much as you did.
    Have a great week 😀

    When I started trying to decide what to do I also came across a lot of “Sea” words, but still tweaked the topic a bit. I was just struggling, LOL.

    Apparently, I need to read more books with “sea” in the title as it’s the word I’ve seem used most today. I haven’t read a single book with “sea” in the title. LOL.

    I’ve read a few of these: Sea Witch, The Sea of Monsters and Salt To The Sea. I enjoyed The Sea of Monsters and Salt To The Sea, but Sea Witch was sadly a bit of a disappointment for me.

    This is such a fun topic and I love what you decided to do with it! I agree there are a lot of books with “Sea” in the title and tbh sometimes I get them confused haha, but its a fun subject so I’m not mad! Great choices 🙂
