Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Artsy Read Girl.
Each week features a book related topic to spotlight your Top Ten.
Topic:
Books With Nationalities In The Title
This one I found a little tricky. Instead of nationalities per se, I opted for books that featured countries in their titles. First half are from the ancient setting and the second half are more modern settings.
When looking through the titles, finding nationalities was far tricker. I could find titles like "The Colonel's Lady", "The Hidden Prince", or "The Palace Spy". Finding titles and jobs or titles was easier, but to stay on topic, I bent it a little bit to fit it.

Some Like It Scot looks really cute.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I think a lot of us twisted the topic this week.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT for this week: https://readbakecreate.com/books-with-real-place-names-in-the-title/
This was a harder topic for sure! I went a different route. You did great.
ReplyDeleteI struggled with this topic as well. I've read THE LONDON HOUSE from your list, but that's it.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
I keep seeing Tessa Afshar popping up a lot lately, maybe I should check these novels out!
ReplyDeleteI read The Berlin Letters from your list, but I think my expectations were a bit too different and too high for what I got in the end. It was not bad, but not good either.
