Top Ten Tuesday: Books That Make Me Hungry


Happy Tuesday everyone!  Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.  This week's topic is Books That Make Me Hungry.  I'm listing a good mix of genre and age categories this week, but these are some of my favorites that feature food.  Here we go, in alphabetical order by title:


11/22/63 by Stephen King - Is it weird that I want to try the Fatburger?


Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl - This one's probably a pretty obvious choice to anyone who has a sweet tooth. 


Geekerella (Once Upon A Con #1) by Ashley Poston - What can I say, the main character works on a food truck and it sounds like it has a good menu.


Heartless by Marissa Meyer - Cath just wanted to open up a bakery. Is that too much to ask?


The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Chronicles of Narnia #1) by C.S. Lewis - Sure, Turkish delight is good, but not quite sell out your entire family good.


The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien - Breakfast, Second Breakfast, Elevenses, Luncheon, Afternoon Tea, Dinner, Supper. Need I say more?


North of Happy by Adi Alsaid - My favorite scenes are definitely when Carlos is in the kitchen.


Pumpkinheads by Rainbow Rowell and Faith Hicks - Just writing about this makes me want to taste all of the perfect for fall treats featuring in this delightful graphic novel.


Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen - I mean, Layla and Mac's family own a pizza parlor and they play bluegrass. That makes them okay in my book!


With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo - Seriously all the food mentioned here will get your mouth watering!


What books make you hungry?  Have you read any of these books?  As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!

  8. I loved the recipes at the beginning of the chapters in North of Happy, and there were some dishes I really wanted to taste. I nagged my parents forEVER to get me turkish delight after seeing the Narnia cartoon movie.

  10. I've never understood the Turkish Delight obsession. Sounds gross to me and I love sweets!

  11. Great list! I'd happily live my life eating like a Hobbit.

  12. Definitely Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, so many descriptions of lovely sweets. Yes to LOTR as well, I like to think I eat like a hobbit!!

  13. Yes to all! So funny, I forgot the fatburgers in 11/22/63, so I was startled to see it as a book that makes you hungry. I'd love to visit the Wonka factory, and I think I was a Hobbit in a former life, because 2nd breakfast sounds like a necessity to me. I love the pumpkin patch food in Pumpkinheads -- I want to try it all!
