Top Ten Tuesday: The Big, Bad Wolf
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday theme is all about villains. While I could have gone for epic villains in children’s literature like The Trunchbull in Matilda or Severine from The Jumbies. I decided to go in a little bit of a different direction and share the fractured fairy tales of the…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books With Occupations in the Title
This was a fun list to pull together and I’ll be honest to say I started with a completely different list of books before pivoting to the list I pulled together below. Rather than choose ten different occupations, I decided to share ten books with the word “librarian” in the…

Top Ten Tuesday: How I Spend My Time When I’m Not Blogging
While I spend a good deal of time on my blog, it’s only a small part of who I am. So for today’s “Non-bookish freebie” I decided to share a little bit about who I am outside of this blog! How else do you spend your time? How I Spend…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books with a High Page Count
This theme could also be labeled, “Books that would make great doorstops” because these titles are quite hefty! Almost all of the books I’ve selected are over 1,000 pages and are chunky. And I’ll be the first to admit, I’ve only actually read one of the books on this list…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books Guaranteed to Put an End to Your Book Slump

Top Ten Tuesday: Fantasy Middle Grade for a Non-Fantasy Reader
Please let me explain this very extensive title for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday blog post! Today was a genre freebie for the theme which means I could pick any genre to explore. While I typically choose genres I absolutely adore (like historical fiction!), I decided to go a different…

Top Ten Tuesday: Beach Reads
It’s a beach reads week at Top Ten Tuesday and I’m loving contemporary romances – they’re just like chick flicks, easy to watch/read and you know everything is going to work out in the end! Today’s list is full of romance stories that take place at the beach and are…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books Set Around the Partition of India
I enjoy reading historical fiction to learn about time periods that have come before now. I especially enjoy learning about events and people that I don’t know much about. While there was a lot of time spent on World War II in school education, there was little discussed about what…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books with Honorifics in the Title
This Top Ten Tuesday theme was a little trickier than others, especially because I tend to focus on children’s books. And while stories like Dear Mr. Henshaw and Because of Mr. Terupt would have worked, I decided to take a different route and focus (almost) solely on historical fiction romances!…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books I’d Like to Re-Read
Today’s theme was so easy it was almost too hard! When I was little I would often re-read books, especially in between trips to the library, but as an adult I don’t have as much to time to re-read books. I prefer to read books that are new to me…
