Today’s Top 10: Wintery book covers

Today’s Top Ten topic is a freebie, so I went with Top Ten Wintery book covers. These are all books that I have read, and to make it a bit more challenging I did NOT include any Christmas books.


  1. A Wish For Winter by Viola Shipman

2. The Diamond Eye by Kate Quinn


3. The Backup Plan by Jill Shalvis


4. The Winter Orphans by Kristin Beck.


5. Meet Me in London by Georgia Toffolo


6. The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis.


7. Dark Whisper by Christine Feehan


8. The Whittiers by Danielle Steel.


9. Winter Fires at Mill Grange by Jenny Kane


10. Eight Perfect Hours by Lia Louis


Do you enjoy books in a winter setting? Have you read any of these books?

  1. Great minds think alike! You chose such great covers. All the Jill Shalvis covers are so gorgeously wintery and I love that Viola Shipman cover. I especially love the cover for Diamond Eye.

  2. I would think that eliminating Christmas covers would make your challenge difficult, but it seems that there are plenty of wintery covers and they are beautiful!

  3. I love your topic choice! We’re in the midst of an ice storm down here in Texas, so I’m feeling this post. 😃 I’ve only read and enjoyed Eight Perfect Hours, but several are on my tbr. The Diamond Eye sounds so good! Happy reading this week!

  4. Meet me in london & Eight perfect hours are cute covers. I haven’t read any of these books but they’re not the types of books I read. Sadly, I haven’t read any winter setting books lately.

    Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a lovely day

  5. When I clicked this, at first I thought it would be easy because all the 10 million Christmas books that exist, but I applaud your restraint in not including them on your list. xD I confess that while I hate snow when it happens in my area, it sure is pretty! Especially on book covers! There’s something really striking about these covers. The Diamond Eye is my favorite!

  6. I do love reading books with wintry settings, though right now it’s so cold outside I only want warm beach books to read! ;D Great covers and choice for this week’s TTT.

  7. I love books that have a winter setting, it’s pretty much all I’ve been reading lately haha. It’s great that you didn’t include any Christmas themed books to make this more challenging! Thanks for the recommendations Wendy!

  8. I would think that eliminating Christmas covers would make your challenge difficult, but it seems that there are plenty of wintery covers and they are beautiful!

  9. GREAT covers – and so many ways to represent cold wintery settings. I’ve only read Diamond Eye and have Winter Orphans on my list. Thanks for the visit – have a great week.

    I love all of these covers. What a lovely collection. I enjoyed Meet me in London but that is the only one that I have read.

  11. I love a good wintry cover, and these are excellent choices. I bet it did make it more challenging that you didn’t include a Christmas cover.

  12. Good Job, Wendy. I am a cover lover, so this is a hit for me. I have read 5 of these and have one on my TBR. I really must try The Whittiers. I haven’t read a Daneille Steel book in so long. Great choices for top ten this week.

  13. I love a good wintery read now and again, although I’m not a fan of actual winter in real life. I haven’t read any of the ones from your list but they definitely give wintery vibes fro the covers!
