Top Ten Tuesday (42): Books That Were Totally Deceiving

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week a new Top Ten list will be posted by one of the bloggers at The Broke and the Bookish. Everyone is welcome to join, just make sure to link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so everyone can check out other blogger lists.

Top Ten Books That were Totally Deceiving
(In no particular order, but I chose books I've read and want to read)
1. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
This one was deceiving in the title at first because until I had read the book, I had no idea how killing a mockingbird related to the overall story.
 2. Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier
I really didn't know what to make of the book judging solely by the cover (though it did match the title).
Even after reading the books, I still was unsure how the titles related, but they were still great graphic novels.
 4. The Night Bookmobile by Audrey Niffenegger
First off, did anyone else think this was a children's book at first? After reading it, I was sure it belonged with the Adult graphic novels.
5. Chasing the Moon by A. Lee Martinez
"Tentacles, what?" was the first thought I had when I saw this title's cover. Once I read the summary, I kind of understood how it related but still though it funny.
 6. The Rites and Wrongs of Janice Wills by Joanna Pearson
Okay, the cover made me think of a librarian (for reasons unknown), but it is in fact NOT about a librarian, I'm sad to say. Still I'm looking forward to reading it. :)
 7. Demon Lover by Juliet Dark
Not quite sure how the cover relates to the story, really, though it is a nice cover.
 That's all I could think of, but 7's a pretty good number, too. :)
