Top Ten Tuesday - Make a Wish!

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

Make a Wish!


Today, we were supposed to share our book wishlist. I don't ever get books from people nor do I read physical books, so I don't have a list. I thought it would be fun to search my read-shelf for books where character's making a wish is part of the story or wish is part of the title. Here are ten I enjoyed. 

I am sharing five with the word "wish" in the title while in the other five, the character makes a wish. Most of those ended up being time jump or time loop books where the characters get to relive their life or live an alternate version of their life. I had really great luck with those books! 

  1. The Wishing Game by Meg Shafer
  2. What You Wish For For by Katherine Center
  3. Three Wishes by Liane Moriarty
  4. Holiday Wishes by Jill Shalvis
  5. Make a Wish by Helena Hunting


  1. This Spells Love by Kate Robb
  2. The Second Chance Year by Melissa Wisner
  3. The Good Part by Sophie Cousens
  4. In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren
  5. Again, but Better by Christine Riccio


What would be your wish?

  3. I've read 4 of these and it was fun to see them on your "wish list" because I remembered immediately what their wishes were. Great topic switch!

    1. I would do a re-listen. I just can't do rereads, but that was a great one for sure

  6. I like those alternate/ time loop books. And Holidzae- that cover is so festive! This reminds me I haven't read Liane Moriarty in an age either!

    1. Holidaze is so festive! I swear, I wanted to be adopted and be part of their celebration. It was fun. It's been a while since I read Moriarty too. I think I need to read the last two (?)

  10. VERY fun twist on the prompt! I also LOVE a good time loop or alt-life book too, they are so poignant, while still being fun!
