Top 10 Tuesday was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish, but as of January has now moved to That Artsy Reader Girl. If you’re interested in taking part click here.

This week’s topic is books with your favourite colour on the cover or in the title. My favourite colour tends to vary a bit from year to year, at the moment I’m partial to purple so that’s what I’ve chosen for my list. This was a fun topic to research. Without further ado, here are some resplendent purple covers for you to enjoy…

1) Shadow and Bone Leigh Bardugo

2) Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray

3) The Collector by John Fowles

4) Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J. K. Rowling

5) Ombria in Shadow by Patricia A. McKillip

6) Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare

7) The Female Man by Joanne Russ 

8) Ultraviolet by R. J. Anderson

9) Perfect by Ellen Hopkins

10) Ringer by Lauren Oliver
