Top Ten Tuesday: Books with My Favorite Color on the Cover

By Marley 

My favorite hue is blue and it is colorfully displayed in the novels listed below:

 


1. A book cover that includes my favorite color goes to We Were Liars. The cover dons a beautiful light blue sky and matching seascape. This book is the perfect summer thriller that will make you hold your breath after every page. It's a perfect read for a beach day!


2. All the Bright Places is one of my go to reads! The cover leaves a lot to the imagination and is sure to take you on an emotional ride. Have tissues near because this one is a real tear jerker. 


3. You’d Be Home Now will pull on your heartstrings. It addresses addiction and mental struggles among young adults. This book is as tumultuous as the Florida weather. 



4. Live Your Best Lie takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions. It addresses the physiological damage that social media can cause.



5. Where Things Come Back does a great job of making you feel like you're part of this small town setting. You can’t help but to get caught up in the character's growth and development.   



6. Unwind is the epitome of a dystopian novel! I'm typically not a fan of book series, but I truly couldn’t get enough of the world Neal Shusterman created.



7. Whether your team Jeremiah or team Conrad The Summer I Turned Pretty is the book of the summer! It's your classic love triangle that makes you feel like you're in a rom-com.



8. They Both Die At The End is an eye-opening read. It really makes you think about how you would spend your last moments and how we live through experiences. 



9. I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter handles the struggle of grief and finding yourself within your culture. With a colorful array of personalities and the right amount of drama, this novel is hard to put down.



10. Last but definitely not least is Five Feet Apart. This book has my favorite cover of ALL TIME and the romance to match! A couple devastated by illness finds love in a dark place.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books Set in High School

Written by Grace H.

Hello and welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday, brought to you by the WPL Teen Book Guild! Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, Top Ten Tuesday is a widespread trend in which book bloggers create a “Top Ten” list in response to a different topic each week.


This week: the theme is: Books Set in X , in our case...High School!


Many of the greatest YA books are set in high school, probably because the teenage years are such a pivotal and dramatic part of any character’s life. Here are some of my favorites!


  1. Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver

  2. The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

  3. Where You See Yourself by Claire Forrest

  4. Today Tonight Tomorrow by Rachel Lynn Solomon

  5. All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven



  1. A Very Large Expanse of Sea by Tahereh Mafi

  2. Dumplin’ by Julie Murphy

  3. Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon

  4. Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan

  5. Heartstopper by Alice Oseman



Which of these have you read? And what are some of your favorite YA books set in high school that I didn’t mention?
