Happy Tuesday y’all! Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl wants us to list books using our favorite tropes or themes for our Top Ten Tuesday lists this week. Honestly, I don’t know what trope or theme is my favorite, and a lot of that depends on my mood when I’m reading. So instead, I decided to twist the topic to share some books with my favorite color on the cover. Can you guess what color that might be? Of course, you can, so let’s check out these blue covers that I adore!
These books will be a mixture of ones I have read and ones that are on my TBR. You will find a mix of new releases and older releases. I worked to keep one book per author. And if it’s part of a series, I made sure it was the first book in the series. Looking for more information about the books listed below? The images will take you to Amazon, and the titles will take you to Goodreads.

Great cover selection, and the best part is that you’ve categorized them as per genre/ reading groups. Feeling the “blues” is its own kind of trope. 🙂
It definitely is hard to pick a favourite trope—there are so many great ones! These are all gorgeous covers 😍
Is blue your favorite color?
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Oh these are great! There’s some really nice variety between these covers. And your post reminds me that I want to re-read Our Town…

Blue always makes covers pop in the best way.
I feel like so many of my favourite books have blue covers!
Great post, I love seeing all these beautiful blue covers in one place.
I have quite a few blue covers to read but can’t think of a favorite off the top of my head.
Lots of lovely ones! I find blue very calming, so these make me happy.
Happy TTT!

Lovely covers. I think my favorite one you shared is for The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender.
Blue is my favorite color too. One of my bookshelves is organized by color, and most of my books are blue or black.
These are all so lovely. The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender is such a pretty book (inside and out).
