Top Ten Tuesday: Book Covers That Are Saaaweeettt!
9:38 AM
I don't know about you, but I've definitely gained the COVID 19—pounds, that is! Between quarantine boredom snacking and hibernating due to the merciless summer sun, I've done more eating than moving in the last few months. Part of my problem is a raging sweet tooth. No matter how hard I try, I just can't curb it! So, for today's Top Ten Tuesday topic—Books That Make Me Hungry—I decided to celebrate dessert by featuring ten book covers that give me a sugar rush just by looking at them. Bonus: These covers might make you drool, but they won't elevate your blood sugar or add inches to your waistline. Sweet!
In case you've been living under a rock, you should know that Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl. It's a fun weekly meme that helps spread the love all over our wonderful book blogosphere. If you're not joining in, you really should be.
Top Ten Book Covers That Make Me Hungry for Sweets
Artichoke's Heart by Suzanne Supplee
Rhymes with Cupid by Anna Humphrey
Sally's Candy Addiction by Sally McKenney
Cake Confidence by Mandy Merriman
See You at Harry's by Jo Knowles
Cure for the Common Breakup by Beth Kendrick
The Coincidence of Coconut Cake by Amy E. Reichert
Peppermint Cocoa Crushes by Laney Nielson
The Unlikelies by Carrie Firestone
Cookie Encounter by Michelle Connell
Are these books as delicious as they look? No clue. I haven't read any of them. Have you? What are the sweetest book covers you've seen? What books make your tummy rumble? I'd love to know. Leave me a comment on this post and I will gladly return the favor on yours.
P.S. After I finished writing this post, I realized I had already done a TTT list of food-laden book covers back in October 2017. Apparently, I really like some of these covers. LOL.
Happy TTT!

Top Ten Tuesday: Food, Glorious, Food!
3:04 PM
It's Tuesday again, which means it's once again time for my favorite weekly meme. This week's topic has to do with food. Who can't get behind that, amirite? Technically, lists are supposed to be about Top Ten Yummy Foods Mentioned in Books, but I'm going to go ahead and give mine my own little twist. Since I eschewed them last week, I'm going to feature book jackets this time around. And not just any ole cover art, but the kind that makes your mouth water so much you just want to lean over and lick the picture right off the paper. Yummmm ...
Before we get to that, though, I want to encourage you to join in the TTT fun. All you have to do is click on over to The Broke and the Bookish, read a few quick guidelines, make your own list, and join the party. It's a great way to discover new book blogs and add exciting new reads to your TBR mountain chain. C'mon, you know you want to!
Okay, here we go with Top Ten Drool-Worthy Foodie Book Covers:
1. The Wedding Bees by Sarah-Kate Lynch—I'm not a big honey fan, but this cover is scrumptious-looking! The story sounds good, too. It's about a woman who lets her queen honeybee choose where she's going to live next. She ends up in New York City, where she brings together a group of neighboring misfits through the magic in her honey.
2. The Coincidence of Coconut Cake by Amy E. Reichert—This novel looks delicious all around. It's a romance about a chef and the restaurant critic who's trying to ruin her career. A case of mistaken identity leads to love, but can this new relationship survive once the truth comes out?
3. When In Doubt, Add Butter by Beth Harbison—Cupcakes I can give or take, but frosting? Can't resist it. Especially if it's nice, thick buttercream yum. So, yeah, I'm basically in love with this cover. The story sounds cute and really similar to The Wedding Bees.
4. The Irresistible Blueberry Bakeshop and Cafe by Mary Simses—Jam isn't really my, well, jam, but I do love blueberries. Also cafes because they smell delectable. The title of this one also evokes warm memories of The Blueberry Cafe, a little place in Cagayan de Oro, Philippines, that a fellow exchange student and I loved to visit because it reminded us of home. Appropriate, since this novel is about a woman going home to fulfill her grandmother's dying wish.
5. The Mango Season by Amulya Malladi—Speaking of The Philippines, I ate the tastiest (also smelliest—I'm looking at you, durian) fruit there. The mangoes were especially glorious. This novel is about a young Indian woman who's returning to her homeland after seven years to break horrifying news to her very traditional parents—she's engaged to an American.
6. The Girls' Guide to Love and Supper Clubs by Dana Bate—Again with the frosting! Delish. This novel, which is about a woman who launches an underground supper club, sounds fun, too.
7. Lion House Bakery—I love this cookbook, one in a series featuring recipes from the historic Lion House restaurant in Salt Lake City. My favorite recipe is the one featured on the cover—crescent rolls. They're unbelievably good. My mother-in-law bakes the best ones I've ever tasted; even though I use the exact same Lion House recipe, mine never turn out as well.
8. Artichoke's Heart by Suzanne Supplee—Mmmm, chocolate. As long as it's white or milk, I'm in. The novel sounds intriguing as well. It's about an overweight young woman who embarks on a journey to change her body and her life.
9. Rhymes With Cupid by Anna Humphrey—I'm not going to add this anti-Valentine's Day romance to my TBR list, at least not for the story. The ice cream sundae on the cover, though ...
10. First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen—I've never read anything by Allen, but her book covers are all so pretty! Maybe that's because lots of them feature food. First Frost, a novel about sisters and their magical food concoctions, sounds engaging.
What do you think? Do any of these covers make your tongue salivate and your stomach growl? Have you read any of my picks? What food-laden jacket art/books do you love?
Leave me a comment on this post and I'll gladly return the favor. Happy TTT!
