  3. What a fun topic. Just finding and touching my old "friends" made it worth the effort. I bet you feel that way about your books, too. I've seen several of these titles on your lists before. Super favorites.

  5. Hi Greg! I remember you talking about The Shark Club. But I still haven't read it...

    Stunning cover for Journey to the center of the earth.

    Happy TTT and sorry I haven't replied last week...!

  6. Great list. I have a few of these books on my TBR and I'm really looking forward to reading A Closed and Common Orbit. I hope I like it so much I want a physical copy!

  7. There are some very beautiful covers on this list! For that alone, I could see why you would want to own them.

  13. I really like that cover design for Journey to the Center of the Earth.

  14. I haven't even read Becky Chambers' books but I've got all of them on my shelf already. I can't wait to read them! I'm also keen to check out The Extinction Trials! 😍 Great list!

  15. Great topic. I love seeing your posts every week. Here is my post-https://paigesofnovels.wordpress.com/2022/09/06/top-ten-tuesday-library-books-and-arcs-i-want-to-read/.

  16. Replica! I used to own that book, too. I got it from the Dollar store, if you can believe that. Hardback and everything. I ended up passing it onto a friend who really wanted to read it. You have some pretty covers on your shelves.

  17. It's only fitting that once I start blogging again, I hop over and see The Shark Club. I will always associate that book with you. Man, I really should read it. Maybe I'll do a feature where I read three books some of my favorite bloggers love and do a comparison. That could be fun.

  18. It's always nice when you love a book so much you want your own copy!

  19. The Extinction Trials were a library book that I ended up buying.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Some books are special enough (or make enough of an impact) that you just need a copy of your own.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I love that cover for Journey to the Center of the Earth! Also, The Extinction Trials always look like such an intriguing read.

    ReplyDelete
  22. What a neat list, Greg. Emilie & The Hollow World and Journey Under the Sea sound interesting. Thanks for sharing.

  23. I haven't read any of these, not even Journey to the Centre of the Earth. A lot of them are on my TBR, though. I love the cover you chose for Journey and the Thonger one is awesome too! :D

  24. Great list! I own Journey to the Center of the Earth, too, along with several different movie versions of that book. And I love that you still have a Choose Your Own Adventure book! Those were my favorites to read when I was a kid. :D

  25. Everytime I see the shark club, I think of a night club that used to be here. I don't think it's open anymore..but it sure looked cool. I hope the drinks were good.

  26. Not surprised to see Chambers up there. I know you are a big fan

  27. That cover of Journey to the center of the earth looks great, didn't look like a classic book like the copy I have.

    I used to have a signed copy of Replica, if I have known you wanted a copy, I would have send it to you.

    Have a lovely day.

  29. I really like that cover for Emilie and the Hollow World. So eye-catching!

  30. Journey to the Center of the Earth is an awesome book. I like anything by Jules Verne.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Nice that you shortened the topic withoug even changing it. I have only watched Jules Verne's stories. Does that count? ;)

    Thanks for visiting my TTT this week.

  32. What a wonderful list. Some look familiar, others not. Seems we both like Lauren Oliver :-) Oh and thank you for your nice comment on my Sunday Post!

    ReplyDelete
  33. I enjoyed the first Becky Chambers of that series. I need to read on.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I haven't read Replica but I'd love to! I used to love Lauren Oliver's books.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Oh Choose Your Own Adventure - now there's a blast from the past, I used to love those!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Great list! I haven't read any of those.

    ReplyDelete
  37. While I haven’t read any of these, it sounds like you enjoyed them!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I love the cover of Journey to the Center of the Earth and The Extinction Trials. So eye-catching!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Interesting mix. I have not read any of these.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I have to buy a physical copy of my favorites for my shelf too! Journey to the Center of the Earth is a neat cover. Like a rainbow of colors!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I need to get the rest of the Becky Chambers series for my collection. I have the first two but never picked up the others.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Journey to the Center of the Earth is on my TBR and I love the Choose Your Own Adventure cover! I was always terrible at them and tended to die very quickly but I could never resist them.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I love seeing the old Choose Your Own Adventure covers! They're so nostalgic. I was a HUGE fan of the series back in the day.

    Happy TTT (on a Sunday)!

  44. These are nice covers, I can see wanting them just for that reason! Esp Journey to the Center of the Earth.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I'm still waiting for a hardcover of Long Way before I buy the rest of the Wayfarer books. The only hardcovers that were printed were a few special editions handed out to publishing people at the drop party. I still have it on my Better World Books wishlist just in case someone doesn't know what they have and donates it. 😅 I wish they would publish a hardcover boxed set. 😐
