Top Ten Tues 307


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This week I'm going rogue with a post I meant to put up in October. Alas, that didn't happen so this week is the first part of a post sharing favorite covers.

    These are great covers! I feel like I've read most (or all) of these books, but that was when I was young and not tracking books read. I always loved how atmospheric the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys covers were, though!

    My TTT for this week

    These are some great covers! I really love the one for The Mystery of the 99 Steps, the eye is really drawn up from bottom to top there :)

    Oh, Nancy and the Hardy Boys! Some great covers. The children's Liberian wanted to throw ours out, but the director wouldn't let her. Thankfully. 🖤💜🍁💜🖤🍁Hope your November is off to a good start. Its such a busy month. We have lots of birthdays this month. Of course, we have off a few days as well during the month which means make up times..and I'm still recovering from the trip..meanwhile..I am trying to balance between stories with Liv and Rox's ordeal... I am glad to finish Engstrom's book. I have another on Kindle too. One of her books was made into a movie in 2016 Candiland with Gary Busy. But her most horror of all books is When Darkness Loves Us. I read the beginning..but I dunno it might be too much horror for me.

      Hope you're taking care of yourself. Yes, you just don't know what's out there. So many of my co-workers went to one in Iowa a couple of weeks back. Nothing was going to stop them. One co-worker couldn't help but spend money and she waited all weekend long for a jacket to come down in price. It never did, but she bought it anyway.

      Just found out a co-worker has COVID. We also don't have water at the moment..so no shower this morning. Ugh..what a way to start Wednesday. Hope you are feeling better.

    You got to admit, there are some wicked amazing covers for young readers back in the day! I read a few Nancy Drew books myself growing up and was always mesmerized with some of their creepiness!


    Here's my Tuesday Post

    Have a GREAT day!

    These covers do make a great art on their own

    These are such great vintage covers. They make me want to go back and re-read the Nancy Drew series! I adored it as a kid, but I don't really remember any of the stories now.

    Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

    Love the old Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys covers! I always think they would make great artwork to hang.

    Love love love all these covers! I've been a longtime fan of Nancy Drew covers but I must admit that the Hardy Boys might have a slight edge. They're definitely more dramatic.

    I love all these covers. We had a lot of Hardy Boy books in our house, and Bobbsey Twins, but no Nancy Drew... so I've only read a couple of those. I should read The Witch Tree Symbol for Witch Wednesday. 📘
