I’m linking up with Top Ten Tuesday, which was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. Check out upcoming Top Ten themes on Jana’s blog
I just discovered that I haven’t participated in Top Ten Tuesday since May! But today’s prompt is fun: books about travel or with modes of transportation on the cover. Strangely, I found ten science fiction/fantasy/horror/thriller books with cars, trucks or vans on the cover, take a look!
All of these covers are really great! I really like the one of Hidden Pictures for some reason, even though it looks like someone is burying something/someone??
Ha ha exactly, that’s what’s happening;-)
I love your take on today’s prompt!
Thanks Sophie!
It makes me very happy to see Trail of Lightning on your list!
It was one of the first ones I thought of!
Oh, cool! It can be hard to narrow topics down like this, but it’s super rewarding when you can.
Thanks for stopping by earlier.
It wasn’t that hard to be honest, but I had fun going through some older books to find these:-)
This was a hard one to narrow down, good take on it! I thought about spaceships on the cover to be honest
I thought about spaceships too, but finding “car” books seemed like more of a challenge.
I’ve only read Later, but SFF is not really my thing anymore. I’m more for romantasy.
My TTT: https://laurieisreading.com/2024/08/13/top-ten-tuesday-books-that-give-off-summer-vibes/
Romantasy is definitely popular these days:-)
Christine was a good read.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
It was!
Ha ha, I’ve actually read one of these: Christine!
Christine is so old school King, I loved it:-)
I’m kind of not surprised that there were lots of horror books to pick from with this topic, given how many creepy road based ones I’ve seen around lately. It’s nice to see some fantasy included too though and I really want to read Trail Of Lightning one day.
Trail of Lightning was sooo good!
Ooh, I hadn’t thought of Trail of Lightning, but it’s perfect!
It was one of the first books that came to mind. I remember thinking when it came out that you never see trucks on fantasy books.
Love the Stephen King covers for sure! Fun picks!
Thanks Lisa!
I saw the title of this and thought “I bet it has World Running Down on it”. The Book of Cold Cases is the only Simone St. James I’ve read and I was a bit meh about it, but I got Murder Road in a subscription so I guess I’ll be giving her another chance. I haven’t done TTT in ages either, I keep thinking I’ll do it and before I know it’s Tuesday and I’m not in the mood.
World Running Down was the first book I thought of!
These are great and I’ve read at least 4 of them. Love all the covers here.
Me too, and lots of different genres in the mix.
Welcome back to TTT! Cars and trucks are definitely popular on book covers. Great list.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

They are much more popular that I realized!
Great selection and I’ve read five of these which I’m quite pleased with.

Oh Trail of Lightning! I need more in that series.
