Hello fellow bookworms! Top Ten Tuesday is now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl! Most of us are familiar with Top Ten Tuesday by now, but if your new to this, a topic is given every Tuesday and the blogger then produces a top ten list of books to fit the weekly subject. The topic this week is ‘Top Ten Books With [Favourite Colour] On The Cover/In The Title. Despite a lot of my belongings being pink, my favourite colour is yellow, the happiest of colours, and very apt for the glorious weather we’ve been having here in the UK. To celebrate this wonderful colour and the beginning of what looks to be a lovely summer, here is my ode to the colour yellow, through a list of great books…
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling
Black Eyed Susans by Julia Heaberlin
Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstrom
I’ll Give You The Sun by Jandy Nelson
Between The Lines by Jodi Picoult and Samantha Van Leer
Alice and the Fly by James Rice
This was actually quite difficult, it turns out yellow isn’t a very prominently used colour on books covers (I think we should change that, it’s a very eye catching colour!), so I did have to turn to come books that I’ve been dying to read but haven’t got round to doing so yet. I’d love to know what you think of the books on my list, and please feel free to link your lists down below so I can have a nosey at your favourite coloured books!
Until next time…
Jade 🙂

I LOVE the cover of BLACK EYED SUSANS. I also really like Black Eyed Susans in real life and have a bunch of them planted in my flower bed. I’ll Give You the Sun will always be one of my very fave books. Jandy is too good!!

I’ve always liked that cover on Black Eyes Susan. Nice to see some yellow today. I’ve seen lots of blues and purples already!

Thank you, I’ve seen a lot of blue as well, but it is a very commonly used colour on book covers!

Yellow is my favorite color too! I originally wanted to do a yellow list as well but couldn’t find enough covers… it’s such a shame! Yellow is definitely underrated ❤

Yellow is definitely an underused book colour, I honestly can’t think of many books with yellow covers!

Ah, yes, it’s not a very commonly used colour on book covers! Who doesn’t love a nice bit of yellow, it should definitely be used more often!
