Ooh! Ill have to try out that Weavers book.
Oh, Dollmaker is not an occupation I would have initially thought of, but I am intrigued now.
A great list. I had some creative occupations on my list!
Have a great week!
What a great list! You found some really good ones.
Oh, The Exorcist, that’s a great one! 🙂
Wow, you came up with quite a few unique ones!! Nice choices.
The Queen’s Dollmaker is an excellent choice!
Wow, so many that I’ve not seen on other posts. I really liked The Taster. Great choices.
I forgot about the Alchemist! Great list! We shared Bookbinder this week!
The Queen’s Dollmaker looks interesting! Seems like one I need to take a closer look at. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my list today.
I am very impressed by the careers you found in book titles. You win!
These are great! I will skip being an Exorcist, though.
Very unique choices! Inwouldnt have though of Exorcist at all. I think I’ll check out The Wet Nurse’s Tale though.
Ooh nice picks! Lots of new to me ones here although I do know of The Exorcist. Never been brave enough to read it though! Lol.
Thanks for visiting my TTT!
Some cute jobs there, The Dollmaker, how lovely. I almost put The Alchemist but then went with jobs closer to my hear.
Thanks for visiting my post:

Great list! I have seen The Archivist on several lists today!
The Queen’s Dollmaker sounds kind of creepy, but that could be because I’ve been reading a lot of horror books.
Nice list! You found some unique ones.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

Omg, I never would’ve thought of The Exorcist but you’re right, it’s totally an occupation! Such a great pick!
Very interesting list, I haven’t read any of these but I keep seeing recommendations for Pip Williams. I’ve also heard great things about The Alchemist.
Intriguing choices this week! I haven’t read most of them, but so many sound intriguing, especially The Anthropologists and Midwife of the Blue Ridge.
