Top Ten Tuesday – 10 Books I Initially Wanted to Read Because of Cover Love

 

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 actually supposed to be Titles or Covers That Made Me Want to Read/Buy the Book.  I decided to focus on covers, mainly because I’m a sucker for a cool cover and because they are usually what first catches my attention and makes me interested in learning more about a book.  As you can see from my selection, I’m very drawn to flowers, rich and vibrant colors, and to black and white covers with pops of red.
