Ten Books With Spring-y Covers


Like everyone else I'm so tired of winter.  I'm tired of the grey and the rain (we don't really get snow) and being cold and all that.  I'm ready for color and sunshine and things actually blooming!  Here are a few covers that have me in a Spring-y mood.


1.  The Sweetest Thing by Jill Shalvis - Somehow this is the only book in the Lucky Harbor series I never read.  Not quite sure how I missed it but I definitely want to fix that.  The pink and the blue look all happy and springy.


2.  A Killing in Antiques by Mary Moody - Summer here is too hot for anything outdoors so this outdoor festival with the bright colors just screams the first taste of nice weather.


3.  The French House: An American Family, a Ruined Maison, and the Village that Restored Them All by Don Wallace - I'm not exactly sure why this cover reminds me about spring.  Maybe it's the restoring the house?  Maybe it's France?



4.  Mastering the Art of French Eating:  Lessons in Food and Love From a Year in Paris by Ann Mah - Sidewalk cafes seem like spring-y things and apparently France does mean spring to me.


5.  Only Enchanting by Mary Balogh -  I love these colors and the feel of this cover.


6.  Pall in the Family by Dawn Eastman -  All the green and the blue sky just makes me happy and I kind of want to know about the dog in the mailbox.


7.  Cloche and Dagger by Jenn McKinlay - I have been wanting to read this one for ages ad something about the balconies and the colors just screams the beginnings of warm weather.


8.  Dreaming Spies by Laurie R. King - I won't be reading this one this spring because I've got several to read in this series before I get to this one but the cherry blossoms just call to me.


9.  The Enchanted Wood by Enid Blyton - I love the fairies in the woods.


10. Picnic in Provence: A Memoir with Recipes by Elizabeth Bard - So apparently France does equal spring to me but the lilac and sage green in the cover isn't hurting!

  4. There are things beginning to bloom in our part of the world. The redbud trees and others have seen bluebonnets (I haven't yet). Spring is certainly coming. Pretty covers!

  7. I am so ready for spring and your book covers are delightful. Cloche and Dagger really caught my eye, so I placed a hold request for it at my library.

  9. The Ann Mah book would be excellent. I can say her Instantly French Instant Pot cookbook is fabulous. Doug has made so many dinners from this book. The other French book has pretty blooming flowers on the edges so that is definitely Spring like!
    I have read Picnic in Provence and it's good too. Guess I was on a Frenchie kick!

  11. I love these pretty covers, but I'm actually all about the rain and clouds! We don't get enough of them here in Arizona, so I've been really enjoying the wet, broody days. I can definitely wait for the return of the heat.

  12. I just heard the news that California is no longer in drought status. Good news, but I wonder how long it will last . . . As always your list of books is so tempting!
