Top Five Tuesday was originally created by Shanah @ Bionic Book Worm, but is now hosted by Meeghan @ Meeghan Reads. To participate, link your post back to Meeghan’s blog or leave a comment on her weekly post. I found this on Davida's Page @ The Chocolate Lady.
Ansay, A. Manette "Vinegar Hill" - 1995
You probably noticed that some of the titles are not in English. Well, the English edition doesn't have a clock. But all the books are available in English and the links lead you to the Englisch review.

This week’s topic is a Freebie. This means we get to choose our own topic. Last year, one of my blogger friends chose Covers with Clocks because she just had to change all of hers. (Thanks, Lark.) The same thing will happen to us this weekend, and I absolutely hate the change. So, I thought it would be a good idea to try and find five books with clocks. It wasn't as easy as I thought but I managed in the end.
Gavalda, Anna "I Wish Someone Were Waiting for Me Somewhere" (F: Je voudrais quelqu’un m’attende quelque part) - 1999
Morton, Kate "The Clockmaker's Daughter" - 2018
Palma, Félix J. "The Map of Time" (E: El mapa del tiempo) - 2008

I always find changing the clocks *weird*. Its funny when they go back an hour - its cool that you get an extra hour in bed, but the day feels *super* long after that. When they go back an hour it throws me 'off' for the entire day....
ReplyDeleteIt's so stupid, Kitten. Especially since they've known for years that it doesn't bring any advantages. And so many people have problems with it. Farmers especially but also parents, and other people who live by the clock. It always takes me weeks to adjust to the new time.
DeleteI love this choice for this week's freebie. I don't like the day that the clocks actually go forward but I do love having lighter evenings so I am looking forward to Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Janette. I absolutely hate the springing forward, no matter how light it is in the evening, it's the mornings I have problems with. :(
DeleteI've done a post similar to this one with clocks on the covers, but I don't think I did any of the same covers as you. It's fun how many book covers do have clocks on them. :D
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, Lark. Maybe you saw your name in the post already, I had meant to come to your page and tell you about it today. I was just too busy yesterday to do that. But yes, we have one in common, The Clockmaker's Daughter. Thanks for the idea.
