Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly bookish meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl that features a different bookish topic every week.
Today’s topic is Books with Springy Covers
I couldn’t come up with a creative spin on this topic so I just went with books that had the word “spring” in the title. I ended up a pretty good list, I think, and unfortunately, more books added to my TBR! 😂 I hope you enjoy these!
Top Ten Books with Spring in the Title
- Silent Spring by Rachel Carson – This book has been on my TBR forever! I keep meaning to read it but haven’t gotten to it yet. It sounds like a very important book to read about the environment and I can’t believe it was written 50 years ago!
- Rumours of Spring by Farah Bashir – This is a memoir about a girl in India and I must say I am intrigued! I came across it as I was looking for books for this list and it just caught my attention.
- Spring Fever by Mary Kay Andrews – I’ve seen this author’s name everywhere and I thought I must have read at least one of her books but apparently not. Maybe it’s time to remedy that.
- Dragons of Spring Dawning by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman – This is the third book in the Dragonlance Chronicles that I’m trying to do a reread on this year! I cannot wait to get to it!
- Absent in the Spring by Agatha Christie – Written under her pseudonym Mary Westmacott, it just reminds me I’ve still got many of the author’s books on my TBR!
- The Spring of the Ram by Dorothy Dunnett – I have heard good things about the author when it comes to historical fiction. I had a few of her books on my physical shelves at one point but I moved and had to give away a lot of books so she’s still on my TBR!
- Black Spring by Henry Miller – I’m not sure I’m interested in this book, but the cover is very attention-getting and I had to include it.
- Spring Fever by P.G. Wodehouse – The second book with this title on my list, but it sounded good, and I’ve been curious about the author’s works so it’s on the list!
- Dragon Springs Road by Janie Chang – Historical fiction set in China with magical realism! I must read it!
- A Spring Without Bees by Michael Schacker – This one is another one about the environment and I’m simultaneously wanting to read it and scared to. I think it’s important to educate ourselves though.
Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? Would you read any of these books?
Visiting other’s lists every week always reminds me of or introduces me to new books, so like you, I end up with new TBR books – or at the very least, books I want to read more about! 😉
Right?! It never ends!
Two classics! Good for you. Nice tweak!
Thanks!
I picked up my first Westmacott book last spring. I was so excited when I found it at a used bookstore. A couple of weeks later, I was talking about it with a used bookseller, and he was pretty jealous I got it because they are so rare.

Oh, that’s so cool! I love stories like these, you must have been so thrilled!
Such flowery covers!
Thanks!
A Spring Without Bees sounds ominous!
It does!
I used to read the heck out of Mary Kay Andrews! They are fun reads. Great list!
Love to hear it! It makes me excited to read her too.
Spring Fever seems like a popular title haha – I couldn’t find a single book with Spring in the title but these look very seasonal 🙂
It does seem so! I wonder how many I can find!
Great topic choice! I haven’t read any of these and I can’t believe it. haha.
I’ve only read one of these! 😂
You’ve made me wonder if I have any books with “spring” in the title, and I found none! Surprisingly though, I had several with spring in the series title! 😂
Haha, nice! I’m going to have to look up series with spring in the title.
That’s a clever list. I just went for pastel colours 😂
Have a great week!

Thank you, I hope the same for you!
This is a great spin on the topic! I can relate to adding more books to my TBR whenever I make a new Top Ten Tuesday post. I feel the same way about Spring Fever by P.G. Wodehouse, I’ve heard of the author and I’ve curious about his books too. The cover is amazing too 🙂
If you’d like to visit, here’s my TTT: https://thebooklorefairyreads.wordpress.com/2025/04/08/top-ten-tuesday-books-with-springy-covers/
Yes! I hope you’ll enjoy Spring Fever if you read it. I’m falling so behind on my TBR list already, I feel like I’m never gonna get caught up! 😂
My husband loves Wodehouse! My TTT
I’m glad to hear that! I’ll read Wodehouse one day, hopefully soon!
I haven’t read any of these, but I really would like to make time to read some of Agatha Christie’s work. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Agatha Christie is so good! I hope you’ll enjoy her works.
I do love the sound of Dragon Springs Road!
It sounds good to me too!
Agatha Christie is always a great choice
Always!
The only one of these that I have read is the Dragonlance book, but it has been so long that I don’t remember anything about it. I love that your list includes two nonfiction books about the environment! Though I would be a bit nervous to read the one about bees, too. I love bees, but the book sounds very ominous.
I’ve also only read the Dragonlance book and too long ago. I agree that the book about the bees sound ominous, I’m scared to find out just how bad it’d be if we lost the bees.
