Things I’d Have at My Bookish Party

Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Things I’d Have at My Bookish Party. This topic is especially appropriate because yesterday was my birthday. Unfortunately, given the circumstances, I did not have anything close to a party this year, so it is fun to imagine what I would have had. I also love planning a party so it is a win-win. I also created a Pinterest board with these and more in case you see…

Signs You’re a Book Lover

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is 10 signs you're a book lover.  There are way more than just 10 signs, but I have picked out some of the ones that I've commiserated about with  other books lovers.

My Favorite Retellings

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is a Genre Freebie.  So, I decided to focus on one of my favorite fantasy sub genres, retellings. I love fairy tales.  And so getting to read some of my favorite fairy tales re-imagined is just amazing! I tend to enjoy retellings that are a little out there.  I don't want to re-read Beauty and the Beast, I want to read an amazing book inspired by a fairy…

Authors with Good Social Media

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is Authors with Good Social Media.  I will be honest I don't follow as many authors as I probably should. I am also not a huge twitter user, and given that is likely were authors really shine, for obvious reasons, I am most certainly missing out.  I've also included authors that may not be as well known but their bookstagrams are amazing so... All that being said, here…

Books with One Word Titles

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is Books with One Word Titles.  I have to admit there aren't that many books with one-word titles.  I am going to take this opportunity to share some book recommendations.  All of these will have one word titles, but they will also be some of my personal favorites.  Many of these do not get much attention either.  Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish…

TTT: Love Triangles that Aren’t Annoying

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is a freebie, so I decided to highlight a trope I don't love, love triangles.  Why would I post about something I don't like?  Well, the truth is this trope isn't always terrible.   In fact, I am highlighting ten books with love triangles that aren't annoying.  While a large chunk of these are young adult reads, not all of them are.  And if you have books with decent…

TTT: Predicted 5 Star Reads

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is Predicted 5 Star Reads.  This could easily be a 2020 books I'm looking forward to post, but I already have my 2020 book releases page for that.  Not to say that there won't be any 2020 anticipated releases, it just won't be all of that.  There are also quite of few on here that could go either way depending on where the story goes, but I'm choosing…

TTT: My Favorite Foreign Editions

Perhaps it is because I can't get them easily, but I love Foreign Editions.  US covers are also wonderful and I would say more often than not they are my favorites, but sometimes foreign editions are just better.  Below are some of my favorite foreign editions.   Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and has since moved to That Artsy Reader Girl beginning in January…

Top Ten Tuesday: Bookish Discoveries I Made in 2019

This week's Top Ten Tuesday is Bookish Discoveries I Made in 2019.  I don't know why this topic was so hard for me to figure out what to write about, but I would say the genre I really discovered in 2019 was the Romantic Comedy, so here are my top 10 Romantic Comedy reads from 2019. I have linked the book cover to my review of each as well in case you want…

Top Ten Tuesday – My Favorite Hallmark Christmas Movies

  This week's Top Ten Tuesday topic is a Freebie, so I thought I would talk about one of my other loves, Hallmark Christmas movies.  I love them and they are on in my house non-stop from mid-November through the end of December.  So here is a list of my personal favorites.  Some are on the list more because they are sentimental than because they are great movies.   And while compiling this list…
