So this week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic from That Artsy Reader Girl asks for specific “awwww” moments in books, and like many participants, I struggled to come up with those. So I’m sharing ten books that made me hug them or my people when I got to the end of them:
- The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Anne Shaffer and Annie Barrows
- The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
- Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli
- The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune
- Landline by Rainbow Rowell
- The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
- A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
- A Snicker of Magic by Natalie Lloyd
- Where the Mountain Meets the Moon by Grace Lin
- The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
Are there particular awww moments, or awww books in general, that stand out for you?
Great list, I look forward to reading a lot of those books as they are on my TBR just haven’t gotten to them yet.
