Ten Books Under $10: April 2022 Finds

10 Books Under $10 on Amazon

Hello friends! As with all book-related posts on My Colorful Wanderings, it’s me Shelbs! I’ve been wanting to share what we’re up to but we’ve just been really busy so writing has taken a backseat recently.

The only thing keeping me sane while I run around and wait on this has been reading? And since I’m a firm believer that reading makes you a better writer.. well… I really did this for you, my friends!!

10 Books Under $10 On Amazon

All of my picks this month are fiction! Some fantasy, some romance, a thriller, and contemporary literature romance as well. I think it’s important to read a wide variety of things so I’m always trying to pick a few different genres and authors.

A 4.5 star rated read, follow Robert Hillman’s tale of a couple in rural Australia in the 1960s. This novel follows the richly described romance of two people whose love and passions drive them to start the first bookshop in town.

Everyone is loving the rom-com with cartoon covers genre recently and I can totally see why after reading The Spanish Love Deception and The Love Hypothesis. (Two of my other faves this year!)

Follow the story of Zafira and Arc navigating and finding their places in the world while preparing for an upcoming war.

    Not that we drink coffee… but 10/10 will go to a vibey coffee shop for a hot tea ☕️ 🖤
Strolling the adorable Main Street of #madisonindiana was well worth the chilly wind. Loved every second of our mini couples getaway with some of our favorite humans! 
Madison is only about an hour from where we live in Louisville so we’ll def be back for a few summer concerts and yummy food down by the rivvaaaaa.

    10/10 would walk the sun drenched rows of the Neon Museum again. ✨
If you haven’t been to Vegas - it really is so much more than a first timer thinks it will be. From world class food to everything being just a little brighter than you’re used to (not to mention covered in glitter or sequins), there’s always something happening in this glittering desert city.

    It’s only Wednesday… and I suspect a well-earned cocktail break will be headed my way this weekend as we hang doors at the Airbnb cottage, maybe go for a hike since the 164893 days of rain have finally stopped and clean the house a little? 
Of all of our favorite places to quietly grab a an adult beveragé (#fancylike), the ones with moody interiors, tucked away in peaceful parts of the city and picture perfect craft drinks are my favorite. 
If you know you know fam.

    Architecturally satisfying restaurants with good wine lists and mimosa flights make me happy 🖤
P.S. The gals taught David Colton a valuable life skill on our family weekend away in West Virginia: how to take good photos for the gram. His Dad was SUPER happy about it. 💁🏻‍♀️😂

    One of our favorite hikes close to Louisville right around the corner from Tioga Falls. It’s amazing what you’ll find if you just start hiking. 
Thunder was MORE than happy to get his webbed paws wet and splash around after hiking 5 miles.. I was just happy to find a bench. (Not pictured: me being afeared to get off said bench. 🐓) 
I can hike all day but there’s just something about heights when I’m untethered that gives me a wee pause. 🤦🏻‍♀️
