Top Ten Tuesday - Working for a Living

Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is...

Working for a Living!


Happy Tuesday! Today we are showcasing books that feature an occupation on the title. This was harder than I expected! I had to go back further on my read-shelf than I normally do to find ten books that fit this prompt. It took some digging, but I think I found a few interesting professions among my read books. 

  1. The Bookstore Keepers by Alice Hoffman
  2. Mr. Nice Spy by Tiana Smith
  3. The Scent Keeper by Erica Bauermeister
  4. The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yōko Ogawa
  5. Happy Medium by Sarah Adler
  1. The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers by Samuel Burr
  2. The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai
  3. The Au Pair Affair by Tessa Bailey
  4. Maid for Each Other by Lynn Painter
  5. The Funeral Ladies of Ellerie County by Claire Swinarski

  1. I did think this would be a tough prompt and skipped it because I didn't have the time to hunt. You did great finding titles!

    1. I just scroll through my read shelf, but I had to go back three years. I don't normally have to work that hard.

  3. You did great, Sam. I haven't seen housekeeper or medium on any posts today. Puzzle Maker is another good one.

    1. I was happy to find more interesting jobs, but I suppose those would be more interesting to write about
