Top Ten Tuesday Turns 10 - Beach Reads!


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.  This week marks TTT's 10th birthday!  TTT is a feature I've enjoyed participating in since I started blogging over four years ago, so to celebrate, I decided to revisit the first TTT post I ever did, which you can check out here.  The topic that week was beach reads, and I made a list of my favorite books to read at the beach.  Today I have a collage of beachy/summery covers from my TBR, which I'll have to enjoy reading from my house, because let's face it, I'm probably not going to the beach this summer!


Have you read any of these?

  1. Confession time: I had the audio version of That Second Home from my library recently and ended up returning it. I just could *not* get into it. I had such high hopes! *sobs*

  2. I am in the depths of winter right now, so all of these look just beautiful -- and I want to be on a sunny beach right now!

  3. Beach Read and Key West are two of my favorite adult books this year. I hope you get to spend some time on the beach reading all these fantastic books.

  4. I just love the covers of 'beach reads' - they are always so inviting! I hope you're able to knock a few of these off your TBR this summer.

  7. Great list! I'm planning to pick up Beach Read asap, and I'd really like to try some of Chanel Cleeton's work.

  8. This post is perfect because I've been needing some beachy reads to get me through this and next month! Lately I've just been going full-force into the historical fiction section and it's been so great and comforting! I think The Last Train to Key West's cover makes me want to jump in and join it the most. :) I hear you about not going to the beach--it's a bit of a bummer for sure.

    1. The Last Train to Key West is probably the one I'm most looking forward to!

  9. Fun topic! I love a good beach read. Something about reading a good book on a beach in the summer. :)

    Beach Read (great title haha) looks good!

  10. Beachy covers, how fun! Let's be honest, the beach just gets sand everywhere, maybe reading about it is better anyway ;-)

  11. Your post is so summery! ☀️ I'll have to add some of these to my TBR list.

    Here's my TTT list.

  12. Looks like a great list. I loved Beach Read, The Last Train to Key West, Feels Like Falling, and The Second Home.

  13. I haven’t read any of them, but they make me wish I could go on vacation!

  15. Oh what a good idea to go back to your very first Top Ten Tuesday! I've always been off and on about features like this so good for you with sticking with it for four years. I need to read Next Year in Havana by Chanel Cleeton first before I get into her other books. One beach read that is always clear in my mine is Safe Haven because I read it with my mom years ago mostly on the beach. It even got water damaged there. I really wanted to go to the beach. If I ever did it would probably be in August in the early morning. Otherwise my parents have a pool so I can hang outside there.

    1. Thanks, Adriana! It's a fun feature, although I don't do it every week.

      That's a really nice memory about Safe Haven!

      Pools definitely have their appeal, too!
