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.
Happy Tuesday! Woke to single-digit temperatures today. A bit too early for me. It is supposed to be more seasonable the rest of the week. Speaking of the cold, this week's Top Ten Tuesday is all about books set in snowy places. This should be a fun one.
Top Ten Books Set in Snowy Places
How about a town on the outskirts of the Appalachian Mountains?
The North Pole is a snowy place.
Just thinking about the frozen wilderness of Alaska makes me shiver.
Do you think Canada might be a snowy place?
Though this cover isn't snowy, Caroline takes place in Wisconsin, which gets its fair share of snow.
The Children's Blizzard happened in the Great Plains, known for its significant snowfall.
Depending on which region of Idaho you are in, you could get a lot of snow.
Washington state can get a lot of snow, depending on where in the state you live.
In De Smet, South Dakota, during the winter of 1880-1881, there was so much snowfall that the town was cut off from supplies. Even now, they get a fair amount of the white stuff.
Before they defeated the White Witch, Narnia was a cold and snowy place.
Tell Me Something Tuesday (TMST) is hosted by Jen Twimom at That's What I'm Talking About. TMST is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.

Today, we are talking about superpowers. Now, I am sure you recall what a comic book freak I was as a kid. And, I used to watch superhero shows growing up. Electro Woman and Dyna Girl was a never-miss show, as was Batman with Adam West and Burt Ward. Loved The Incredible Hulk and Super Friends, too.
While they all had neat powers, as the mother of three adult kids, I guess the only superpower I want to possess now is the power to turn back time and go back to when they were little so I could experience them that way all over again.
How about you?

Fun selections Cheryl, especially The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!
I had The Long Winter and Narnia on today's post too. :-)
I can confirm Canada gets snow! Last week we had a few inches fall, and today we are expecting another 5 or so.

These books look good.
Turning back time would be good. My youngest is 2 and the time is flying!
Have a great week!

I read The Long Winter during the pandemic and it was somehow comforting.
Caroline was a good read.
I reread The Long Winter followed by The Children's Blizzard a few years ago and it was so interesting to read like that. That blizzard was so tragic.
Caroline by Sarah Miller - How did I not know this existed???
Great list!
The Road To Christmas looks like a good one. Have a great week. Here is my TTT. https://dmhoisington.wordpress.com/2025/12/09/top-ten-tuesday-13/
I love books set in Alaska! Great list. Have a wonderful week!
Thanks, Shelleyrae. Great to see you here.
Perfect choices, Brooke. Thanks for visiting.
A bit too much for me this early, Pam. My family is from Canada, but I've only been once. It was cold! Thanks for visiting.
Glad you liked them, Emily. It's amazing how fast time flies. Thanks for visiting.
It is said many people read the Little House books or watched the show during the pandemic. I also feel like they are comforting books because everything turns out okay in the end. Thanks for visiting, Deb.
I agree, Lydia. Loved that book! Thanks for visiting.
Oh, that's a great idea, Erin. I haven't been able to tackle all of The Children's Blizzard--Laskin's non-fiction account or Benjamin's fictional one. Such a tough subject. Thanks for visiting.
You have to read it, Rebecca. As a wife and mother, Caroline is so relatable. Thanks for visiting.
That was a great book, Danyelle. Hope you read it. Nice to see you here.
I think that is the only book I've read where Alaska comes into play, Cindy. I need to expand my horizons. Thanks for stopping by.
I have read many books with snow as a central feature, including a couple you've listed. More recently, I just read While It Was Snowing by Julia London and The Holiday Post by L.B. Dunbar, both romances that feature snow storms.
Those books sounds lovely, Jen. Thanks for dropping in!
