Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Books to Read During a Storm



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 of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.    

Welcome to Tuesday! I haven't participated in this meme since August. Can you believe it? This is one of my favorites. Simply haven't had the brainpower. But, the holidays inspire creativity. Plus storms this time of year mean snow, which gets me thinking of Christmas and other fun stuff. So, here is my list of...


Top Ten Books to Read During a Storm


If you're looking for a book about starting over, romance, and murder


If you're looking for a romance involving an interesting occupation and a dilemma that forces the main characters to team up to solve the problem


If you're looking for a story that blends the magic of Christmas, faith, love, and adventure


If you're looking for a funny and sweet story about fed-up moms and how they change their Christmas and their community


If you are looking for an inspirational romance filled with the spirit of love, faith, and community... which also happens to have a storm in it


If you're looking for a mysterious and magical seasonal romance


If you're up to reading a novel based on a true story about a devastating storm that hit the Great Plains in 1888


If you're looking for a touching children's book that embraces the spirit of giving


If you're searching for a modern retelling of a classic romance


If you're looking for a story filled with romance, magic, and destiny 

Seems like romances made up the majority of my list. What kinds/genres of stories do you like to read during a storm?

  3. The Children's Blizzard takes place during the same time as Laura Ingalls Wilder's The Long Winter. I'd love to read about a snowstorm---something I never thought about since I live along the Texas Gulf Coast!

    1. Yes, Deb. That's part of why I know about it. I have a nonfiction book about the blizzard, but I haven't been able to read it yet. Thanks for visiting today.
