Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Joood - Hooligan of Platypire reviews bossed me into doing this, so I guess this is a thing I do now.
This weeks theme is books to read at the beach (or pool). Now, I don't live anywhere near a beach, and my children do not know how to swim yet, so you won't find me reading by a pool any time soon, so I figured I'd take this opportunity to feature some books that will transport me to the beach.
White Sand, Blue Sea by Anita Hughes
One to See Me by Alicia Maxwell
Lighthouse Beach by Shelley Noble
The High Tide Club by Mary Kay Andrews
The Summer Sail by Wendy Francis
Temptation Bay by Anna Sullivan
Miramar Bay by Davis Bunn
The Summer After You and Me by Jennifer Salvato Doktorski
Nothing by Linda Naseem
A Season of You by Emma Douglas
So there you go. Ten books I can read to transport me to the beach any time I want. Who needs teleportation when you have books?
Are there any books you'll be reading at the beach or by the pool this summer? - Katie

You have found some BEACH beach-reads! Great. Enjoy! Summer TBR
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I could convince my husband I deserve a summer vacation by myself so I could read them on an actual beach. LOL.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
These all look like nice vicarious trips to the beach! Love the cover of Summer Sail! And go Aquaman!!
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of ashamed to admit that this is the first time I've used him in photos...I'll definitely have to find a way to fit him in more often.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
I love where you went with this post and Aquaman is so cute! Here's mine: https://myendlessshelf.weebly.com/home/toptentuesday-books-to-read-by-the-poolat-the-beach
ReplyDeleteThank you, and thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteYou can come visit me in Cali, and we can read on the beach together. I can also introduce you to Anita Hughes. She’s my mother in law’s friend.
ReplyDeleteMaybe next summer when we will hopefully not have to replace our roof because of stupid hail. - Katie
DeleteAquaman! I love your pics -- and your take on the topic this week!
ReplyDeleteThank you. And thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteGreat list!! I love the little Aquaman! :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
I do too. He was a lucky thrift store find...still in the box for $3. Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteThe titles all sound really summer-y. Hope they all work out for you!
ReplyDeleteMe too. Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteThose all look pretty summery. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAll your books seem like the perfect beach/pool read. I'll have to check out Temptation Bay. Great choices here! :)
ReplyDeleteRight. I saw the theme and figured I could probably find ten books on my shelves that would fit (I actually found more than ten so I had to limit myself). Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteI love that Aquaman POP! These books fit the theme perfectly! Great list!
ReplyDeleteThanks! And thank you for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteAquaman is perfect for this week!! I haven't read any of these, but they seem like the perfect beach reads. I'm super curious about The Summer After You + Me now!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of them yet either, but they absolutely scream beach read to me. Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteI love the juxtaposition of those sunny, fun covers and the stern, disapproving face of Aquaman! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't even noticed that. He was just my only prop that seemed appropriate for a beach theme (I should really get ahold of some seashells or something.)
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
These all look like great summer reads! Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteRight! And if I wasn't so far behind on my TBR list, maybe I could dive in.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
I really want to read The Summer After You and Me! I've seen it floating around the blogosphere. I recently finished The Last Summer of the Garrett Girls. It was the perfect summer read!
ReplyDeleteL @ Do You Dog-ear?
Oh, I'll have to check that one out, if I ever find the time to even make a dent in my current TBR (or you know, just keep it in the back of my mind in case I catch it on sale on Amazon.)
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
Amazing list! They look like they'll be fun. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you. I certainly hope so. And thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteLove these pictures! They already transport me to the beach, so I can only assume the books will do the same :) And yay, Aquaman!
ReplyDeleteOh yay. I'm so glad I succeeded at imitating the beach for my pics...I was a little worried about that since I live by the mountains in Colorado.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
I was totally distracted by your Aquaman funko pop. Very cute. These all see on the dot when it comes to beach reads.
ReplyDeleteNote to self: Incorporate more Funkopop's on the blog. Apparently they're a hit.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
Yay Aquaman! I love books that transport us places we're unable to go. Great list!
ReplyDeleteThanks! And thank for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteAll of these covers look so summer-y and beach perfect. :)
ReplyDelete...also, your Funko pop looks too cute.
Happy summer reading - and thanks for visiting Finding Wonderland.
I wonder if I could convince my husband to create a little beach in our backyard...(probably not because he'd just complain about all the sand getting into the house.)
DeleteThanks for stopping by. - Katie
I love your list! All the covers fit perfectly with this week's theme. I love being transported via books. We can go anywhere!
ReplyDeleteThank you. And thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteI love these covers! Really want to go to the beach now haha! Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteI really want to go to the beach now too...but that's just not in the cards from Colorado. Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
DeleteI don't think I could get any reading done with Aquaman nearby :P
ReplyDeleteI keep him locked away in a lead-lined box except for special occasions...LOL. Okay, not really a lead-lined box, but I do have a chest full of Funkos and my other photo props that I've collected. Thanks for stopping by. - Katie
