Top Ten Tuesday

This week's topic: Top Ten Books Whose Titles or Covers Made Me Buy It.
Go here for the full list of participants!

First, a confession. I totally judge books by their covers. I do, it's true. I started reading historical fiction originally because a lot of them have amazingly gorgeous covers. Philippa Gregory's books for example have gorgeous and mysterious covers. Now on to the list! 










1. Wideacre by Philippa Gregory (5 stars)
2. The Twentieth Wife by Inda Sundaresan (4 stars)
3. Secret History of the Pink Carnation by Lauren Willig (5 stars)
4. Midnight Pearls by Simon Pulse (3 stars)
5. Lost Art of Keeping Secrets by Eva Rice (3 stars)
6. Peony in Love by Lisa See (5 million stars)
7. Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater (4 stars)
8. Juliet by Anne Fortier (3 stars)
9. Wench by Dolen Perkins-Valdex (3 stars)
10. Luxe by Anna Godberson (4.5 stars)

  4. Indu Sundaresan's book covers are gorgeous though I still haven't read the books. My favorite is Shadow Princess. I love books with saris on the cover. I also liked the cover of Wench and the Pink Carnation book. Some of the books in that series have fantastic covers and others I didn't like as much but I do enjoy reading them!
