*Top Ten Tuesday* Books to Read During a Storm



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 week’s theme is books to read during a storm. I don't really do that kind of mood reading, so instead I'm focusing on books with elements of storms in the title. There will be some repetition, but these all came off of my physical bookshelves. Let's go. 


Fifty Words for Rain by Asha Lemmie


The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood


The Rainmaker by John Grisham


The Perfect Storm by Sebastian Junger


Hurricane Street by Ron Kovic


Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman


The Year of the Storm by John Mantooth


Rain in the Moonlight by Britt Delaney


Cyclone by Doreen Cronin


April Storm by Leila Meacham

There you have it, ten books with elements of storms in their titles. Had I not been building this last minute, I may have been able to populate the whole list with books with storm in the title, just from my bookshelves alone. 

What books would you recommend reading during a storm?

  2. I love your take on this week's prompt. I twisted it a bit too, and focused on covers with wintery vibes.

  5. I haven't read Thunderhead yet but I'd say book 1 of that series would be great to even though the title isn't stormy sounding. 🙂

  7. Great take on the topic! I don't know if I have many books with storm related elements in the title but I have read and enjoyed Thunderhead! That was a great series :)

  9. A great idea for a list. I don't think that I have read many books with storm related elements to them so I had to go for what I would want to read 🤣 we don't have many storms and those that we have are often overnight and I sleep through them!

    Have a great week!
