I is for Ice

 

#AtoZChallenge 2026 letter I


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:



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!

I just read "The Snow Child" by Ivey that will fit this one.

I read The Snow Child a few years ago so that might fit your category......and I read The Lost House I mentioned yesterday which was set in Iceland and involved a LOT of snow and ice. I've not heard of the book you mention here. I enjoyed your post!

I like this cover with it's simplicity but I have no idea what's it is trying to say. It didn't occur to me about the other title until you tell me.

Have a lovely day.

I found a book with snow. It's a Wonderful Woof: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56179345-it-s-a-wonderful-woof. I've got a funny story about that other book and a kiddo bringing it to school to "read". She got bored of it after reading a page...
