Top Ten Tuesday: Frozen Desserts on Book Covers

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

For this week’s cover freebie, I will be continuing the summer theme and sharing ten book covers that include a frozen dessert on them somewhere. Even though I couldn’t find something in every category, my search included but is not limited to ice cream, gelato, sherbet, sorbet, snow cones, popsicles, frozen yogurt, mochi, Italian ice, fudge bars, ice cream sandwiches, Semifreddo, and so much more.

It especially makes me happy to see more frozen desserts being sold that are free of common allergens as that was much less common when I was a kid. Everyone deserves a sweet treat on a hot day!

1 Star – We currently do not post a review of any story with a 1 star rating. If it’s DNF or a “wall-banger” we decline to review.

2 Stars — Disappointing. There may be some minor editing glitches but not enough to stop you reading. Not a wall-banger, but nothing you’d re-read. This is a book you might borrow from the library--never buy--and never check out again. There's a small chance you might recommend it to a friend with a mention of the glitches, knowing that something in the plot or story would still appeal to them regardless.

3 Stars — Okay. You made it through and didn’t consider it a waste of time. The story was strong enough, so even when the book faltered, it was able to draw you back in and keep you. There’s a chance you’ll recommend it to a friend, but it wouldn’t go on your keeper shelf, you wouldn't buy it, and you wouldn't re-read it.

4 Stars — Good. You’re glad you were the one who got to review the book. You would probably buy it and would very likely recommend it to your friends. You liked the characters and the plot. The writing style was good and the editing clean. You would read more books by this author.

5 Stars — Excellent! You would definitely buy this book. You would definitely recommend it to your friends. You really loved the characters and the plot and would consider looking for the author's back list or making her an autobuy. The writing and editing were superb.

LASR Best Book – For a book or story that is truly exceptional. You think about it when you’re not reading it. You wonder what happens to the characters when you finish. You would absolutely buy everything else this author had to offer. The highest praise – and reserved for only a few.
