*Top Ten Tuesday* Books Featuring Baked Goods on the Cover



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 featuring (my choice). I was drawing a blank on this prompt, so I took to Facebook and asked my friends for help. And because I'm a giant askhole, I didn't end up using any of their suggestions. In my defense, I changed course when I started checking the books on my shelves for some of the items my friends mentioned and was inspired by a book cover. So I went with baked goods, with the caveat that the books could not be cookbooks or Joanne Fluke books. And I thought I might not make it to ten, but managed to pull it out. So let's see what books I found. 


The Modern Fairies by Clare Pollard


Eat Post Like by Emily Arden Wells


Love Like That by Emma Duffy-Comparone


White Christmas Wedding by Celeste Winters


The Cupcake Queen by Heather Hepler


The Calamity Cafe by Gayle Leeson


The Cookbook Club by Beth Harbison


Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree


Delightful by Adrianne Lee


Mrs. Perfect by Jane Porter

And now I'm hungry for cake. Thankfully I still have some from my boy-child's recent birthday. I also haven't read any of these books yet. Any of them you think I should make the time to read sooner rather than later? 

What did you choose to feature this week for Top Ten Tuesday? If you're stopping by from the linkup, please be sure to drop a link to your post below so I can return the visit and check out your list. - Katie

  2. A book I read that features baked goods on the cover (and in the story) is The Coincidence of Coconut Cake by Amy E. Reichert. From you list I tried reading The Cookbook Club. It ended up as a DNF.

  3. Great theme! Who doesn't love a good cover? Also, I LOVED Legends and Lattes, it's one of the books I've recently reviewed on my blog.

  4. I love books that feature food. I feel that the description of food makes the story come to life more. I don't know why 😂

    Have a great week!

  8. I haven't read any of yours but great selection. I was thinking of Mrs Quinn's Rise to Fame but it only has the cake mix bowl on the cover, not the actual cake! 😆🎂

  10. I'm ALWAYS drawn to baked goods, in real life and on the cover of a book. Yum!

    Happy TTT!
