Top Ten Tuesday: A Cleaning One

“Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.” -That Artsy Reader Girl

This week’s theme is:

Spring Cleaning Freebie

Now, I don’t usually get rid of books. I want my shelves to look super full when I am older. I plan to own a library. But, to do that I need to keep the books I have. I do have a bag in the bottom of my parents’ house full of old books that I do not want anymore. I am at my own house though so I couldn’t take a look.

I decided to put my spin on this and do the books I will take back to my parents’ house when I visit again. If you don’t know, my TBR books are the only books I have at my apartment so I do not re-read books and I actually read them. Every time I visit my parents’ home, I take all the books I read home with me. I only have a few so this won’t be a full ten.

The Books:

Tower of Dawn

Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares

Into the Wild by John Krakauer

The Uglies by Scott Westerfeld

These are the books I have read. I am hoping to add one more to this list since I will not be returning home for another week. But, who knows, it is finals week soooo…

Anyways, I love doing these tags. They are so easy and fun. I think I post about the same books every week but, that’s okay. I promise eventually I talk about different books for months in a row.

I also like the idea of spring cleaning my bookshelves. I won’t, because I love all my books, but it is a great idea. Also, it is still raining and very cold so it does not feel like true spring at the moment.

As always, thanks for reading,

A Mardi Gras Themed Top Ten Tuesday!

It is Tuesday my dudes.

And it seems like a pretty fun theme this week. We are choosing ten books with green, yellow, and purple covers in honor of Mardi Gras today!

I shall be picking form books on my TBR and from my read shelf on Goodreads. I did not put a lot of effort into this post. I am currently procrastinating homework when I write this so I am sorry.

Fablehaven: Secrets of the Dragon Sanctuary

Happy Mardi Gras!

Ten Books About Love on my TBR

It is Tuesday.

That means it is time for another Top Ten Tuesday!

So, it said Valentine’s freebie so I am taking to chance to talk about the books on my shelf that have romance or are romance novels.

First up is Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyer. While it may not be 100% a romance book, it is a book about love. It also has red on the cover so it fits with the theme.

Second is Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Leviathan. This is what I am going to be reading this week. I think that it is going to be a really cute book it read. I am very excited.

Dash & Lily's Book of Dares (Dash & Lily, #1)

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte is the third book. Yes I haven’t read it yet, what about it?

To go along with above fourth and fifth are Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte.

Sixth is The Princess Bride by William Goldman. This is sort of an important book for my family so I feel like it is very important to read this. I promise Grandmama and Grumpy that I will read it.

The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead is coming in at a hot seventh. The list is hard to make because I am just grabbing what I can off my TBR shelf. I am not sure if I am even getting romance books since I dont know what all of them are for.

The Glittering Court (The Glittering Court, #1)

Ride the Winter Wind by Christina Kingston is the eight book. I have never even heard of this book before but I got it in this bundle of used book from Half Price Books.

Ninth is Fated by Alyson Noel. This was hard to find cause it looks like fantasy but then they synopsis mentions a boy so I am going to count this because my pickings are becoming slim.

And to end the list, I have to include Maas in here somehow so the entire ACOTAR series from A Court of Thornes and Roses, A Court of Mist and Fury, A Court of Wings and Ruins, and A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas. (If anyone can tell me which order do I read ACOFAS in the series that would be great). Once I finish the ToG series, I will be beginning this series next.

Anyways, I hope you guys all have a great week and fill it with love. Take extra time out of your day to show someone that you really care about them and they are special. Who knows who need to hear it.

As always, thanks for reading,
