N is for Nails

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item is:

Nails

My choice:

Sunshine Nails--Mai Nguyen

One of the letters that proved tricky! I mainly chose this because I have this book at home (not read yet). I know that the fingernails are not very dominant on the cover, but this was the best I could find. A nail salon is the setting.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

M is for Matches

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item is:

Matches

My choice:

Under the Same Stars--Libba Bray

I was having trouble deciding on a word for this one, until I remembered seeing something online about matches on covers. That gives a lot to choose from. I remembered reading this book last summer and how much I had enjoyed it.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

L is for Letters

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item:

Letters

Letters, in the sense of mail that is. A lost art.

 

My choice:

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

Flashing back to this book is how I chose this one. This was another tricky letter for this challenge. I also have read a great number of epistolary books. I could mostly find letters that were in envelopes on covers. I will accept this.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

K is for Knives

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item:

Knives

My choice:

Strawberry Shortcake Murder--Joanne Fluke

This is a rather tricky letter, but having read a great number of culinary mysteries made me decide on knife for this letter. This is one such series I have read. I am waiting to see if there is a new book coming. These book contains recipes. I've been tempted by some of them, but a lot of them involve baking, and I don't currently have a working one. And some of the challenges I'm doing this year have the prompt "knife on the cover."

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

J is for Jewelry

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item is:

Jewelry

My choice:

Blue Bloods--Melissa de la Cruz

One I chose from those I have already read, as noted on my Goodreads page. It's been over 10 years since I read this book, and it's one of those series I haven't tried to finish. I now don't know if I need to re-read this first one if I choose to read the next one. Another item that offers many choices. There was at least one other I had in mind for this one. All forms of jewelry are allowed.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

I is for Ice

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item:

Ice

My choice:

Between Shades of Gray--Ruta Sepetys

Ice in the form of snow, ice cubes, etc. I must admit I was hesitant about choosing this because of a certain organization currently in the news. I remembered how this title was easily confused with a similarly titled erotic romance book (I think you know what that one is). The opening line for Between Shades of Gray reads " They took me in my nightgown," which was enough to add to the confusion of the two titles. Read here.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

H is for Houses

 

A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 

Today's item is:

Houses

My choice:

Dear Santa--Debbie Macomber

Having used this cover in this post is what made me choose this one. Again, a lot to choose from, including at least two I have at home (one already read, one to be read). For this one, it can be all or part of a house (as you can see in this one).

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!
