It is Non-bookish Freebie at That Artsy Reader Girl. I thought I’d still keep it somewhat bookish while branching out into the world of art, with ten paintings depicting reading.

Top Ten Tuesday – Books I’d Like to Re-read
This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl is about re-reads. Generally, the books I choose to keep on my shelves are the books I see myself re-visiting at some point in the future, even if it might be years down the track. For this list, I’m including the books that I last picked up more than ten years ago.
Top Ten Tuesday – Animal Companions
This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl is all about the animal companions, whether they’re loyal, cuddly, amusing or terrifying.
Top Ten Tuesday – Books with Springy Covers
We’re actually moving into autumn down here in the southern hemisphere, but that’s no reason not to have fun with the spring theme from That Artsy Reader Girl. I won’t lie, I still miss the proper European spring I grew up with, especially all the beautiful wildflowers.
Top Ten Tuesday – Skulls & Skeletons
Halloween is just around the corner, so it’s naturally this week’s theme from That Artsy Reader Girl.
I can safely say that, of all the spooky creatures and monsters, undead skeletons terrified me the most as a child. I have a vivid memory of hovering outside the biology classroom with a couple of other second graders, daring each other to look through the keyhole at the skeleton model. It was obviously fake and didn’t even have a skull, but it still sent us running away in terror. So, here are some book covers featuring skeletons, skulls and bones.
Top Ten Tuesday – Books I Was Assigned to Read in School
This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl sent me down the memory lane, back to the books I had to read for school.
Top Ten Tuesday – Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Modes of transportation is this week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl. I didn’t expect to come up with so many darker book covers from the mystery and horror genres; planes, trains and automobiles are obviously a popular setting for things going terribly wrong!

Top Ten Tuesday – Book Covers with Umbrella
This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl is April Showers. I hate to be caught out in a shower without a sturdy umbrella, so this is my spin on the topic. Whether discreet or punchy, an umbrella can really add some visual interest to a book cover.
Top Ten Tuesday – Book Covers with Apples
I happened to be eating an apple (a nice and juicy Jazz apple to be exact) while thinking about this week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl, Covers/Titles with Things Found in Nature. A supermarket apple is hardly a product of nature, but hey there are wild apple trees as well!
