Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the lovely Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. Each week a new theme is suggested for bloggers to participate in. This week’s prompt is Books with Weather Events in the Title/on the Cover (I’m picturing a list of titles with weather-related words in them like storm, rain, blizzard, flood, lightning, hail, snow, wind, etc. OR covers with lightning/storms in the picture.)
Hello Readers! I hope this week’s TTT finds you well. We’ve reached the middle of October, and we’re finally getting some cooler weather here in Texas. Now we just need more rain. ????
I thought today’s topic was a fun one, and I was surprised I haven’t done it before. I decided to focus on weather events on the cover, choosing five I’ve read and five on my TBR, but using the same five weather events.
Let’s see what I came up with!
(Link to Goodreads synopsis through book title.)

Happy Wandering!
Weather Girl is cute. I want to read Off the Map, i liked the sisters books. It’s set in a specific season?
Off the Map is set in summer, but it’s Ireland, so it’s a mix of warm and cool and rainy. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! ????
I saw Rachel’s on another list today and it’s a lovely and perfect fit. 🙂 Also looks like one that would be a cute read, too!
Yes! I hope the cute cover matches what’s on the inside. 🙂
Off The Map looks super fun
I loved that whole series!
Weather Girl has such a cute cover.
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
It does! I hope the inside is just as cute. 😉
While I don’t read those types of books, I binged watched the TV show “Vera” based on Anne Cleeves’ novels. There may be a new season coming soon. If so… I’ll binge those too!
Oooh, I need to try Vera. I don’t read mystery/thrillers too often, but I did enjoy this one!
Weather Girl has the perfect cover for this week’s TTT theme.
Doesn’t it?!
Ooh, I love how you repeated your weather event list with books you’ve read and books you want to! That’s a great way to lay it out.
My TTT this week: https://bookwyrmknits.com/2023/10/17/top-ten-tuesday-under-the-weather/
I couldn’t choose, so I just did both! ????
All of these are great, but I feel the cover of The Ice Storm.
I watched the film adaptation of that years ago, just flipping through channels, and it’s stuck with me, which has made me want to read it, as well. But it’s not a happy story. ????
A nice list. I want to read Weather Girl. We have finally got some cooler weather here in the UK. It was 1 degrees centigrade yesterday morning on the school run…
Have a great week!

Brrrr! The cooler weather is nice, but it’s not as nice when we have to get out in it, right?! ????
I completely agree! Especially getting ready for the school runs!!
Off the Map and Weather Girl sound fun! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Off the Map was great! Hopefully Weather Girl lives up to its cute cover. ????
I feel like there were issues with snow in The Simple Wild too. Two of the books had Jonah in the same precarious situation, so I may be confusing them though.
I think you’re right! And with all his flying around he was in many different parts of Alaska. But I read them one after the other, so they blend together in my mind, too. ????
Lone Women and We Speak in Storms–great covers! Good work!
Thank you! <3
Oooh! I like how you split it up between books you read and books that are on your TBR. Great list!
Here’s my TTT

I couldn’t decide between one or the other, so I did both! Ha!
