Top Ten Tuesday: YA Books I Would Read Based on Their Covers
I wanted to take today’s theme in a little bit of a different direction and select titles I haven’t read yet. These are books I’d love to read when I have time and it’s based almost solely on their covers. I actually don’t know much about the books themselves! I…

Top Ten Tuesday: Signs You’re a Book Lover
Today’s theme is interesting because it doesn’t focus on sharing titles, rather sharing ideas about what it means to be a bibliophile. I think this can be different for everyone, but for me, it looks a little like this: Keeping books on my bookshelf that I might read someday. Let’s…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books That Gave Me a Book Hangover
A book hangover, for those who aren’t familiar, is when you finish reading a title and you just can’t bring yourself to pick up another book. The book you just finished sticks with you as you mull over characters, plot, setting, etc. I’m a pretty fast reader, so when a…

Top Ten Tuesday: Chapter Books I Love
Today was a love freebie for today’s Top Ten Tuesday post, so rather than go with the love feeling, I decided to share some chapter books that I love! Chapter books are not middle grade novels. Chapter books are the perfect books for kids who are successfully reading easy readers…
