Category: Top Ten Tuesday

  This is going to be a fun one! I’m not a fan of summer, but I do like the idea of summer. So summery book covers are appealing!                                                                    READ MORE

  I am not at all up to date on the books that are coming out, I’m not even up on the books that have already come out, so excuse me for a few minutes while I consult Google. Okay, I’m back. Here’s what I found. July             August      READ MORE

  This is, as you all know by now, a ridiculous prompt for me. I do not stick to TBRs. Like, ever. With one exception: judging The BookTube Prize. So these are the books I still need to read for this round that I absolutely will finish by the end of July:       READ MORE

  This prompt is a hard one, because I’ve really been trying to spend less time on BookTube, and to add less books to my TBR lists or my shelves due to seeing them reviewed on BookTube unless they look like books that will 100% be ones I’ll want to read, and want to read READ MORE

  I don’t really dwell that much on what happens after books end, because rarely do the ones I wonder about get any kind of sequel. So I had to really think about this one. There are definitely some books that, if I had any say, would have sequels (or even just a quick resolution READ MORE

  This one threw me at first. I’ve got to be honest, I’ve never actually noticed how many books do have a unit of time (minute, hour, day, year) in the title. There are surprisingly quite a few just in the images saved to my blog! So here are the ones I could (lazily find) READ MORE

  This is a great prompt. I love reading for comfort, and I have so many books that are like old friends I can return to anytime I want, particularly when life is feeling dreary, doom-laden or just plan boring. Here are some of my favourite comfort reads!                  READ MORE

  I’ve done a bunch of book quote posts – quotes about reading, quotes with swearing, quotes about race, Oscar Wilde quotes – so I figured I’d tackle a new area of quotes and do another theme that’s important to me – feminism. So here are some quotes on feminism I loved from books. “I READ MORE

  This prompt describes like 90% of the books on my bookshelves and TBR lists. I get so excited about all the new books coming out by authors I loved, books on book prize lists, books people tell me about, books on most anticipated lists and books on any topics I am particularly interested in. READ MORE

  I love bookish characters. They’re some of my favourite people. I particularly like finding them in books. Here are a few of my favourites, real and imaginary.                    Aziraphale from Good Omens was the first one who came to mind when I saw this prompt. I loved READ MORE

  Now I’m writing this well in advance partly because I usually do, but also because I’m currently reading books for the BookTube Prize and I can’t talk about what I think of any of these books until I’ve submitted my rankings and the judging for the Quarterfinals round is over on May 30th. So READ MORE

  This week’s prompt allowed us to choose a particular thing or theme often found on book covers (or less often if you’re in for a challenge). I love books about books, and anything to do with books always catches my attention. So obviously books that have books or people reading on the cover are READ MORE

  This is a fairly easy one! There’s always a ton of bookish stuff out there that’s super cute and that I immediately want to add to my clutter.   An Ideal Bookshelf Print. I’ve got the book and really enjoy losing myself in the art that celebrates books. Lovely.   I love reading socks. READ MORE

  There are so many authors I’ve meant to read for years, and just never gotten around to. So this week’s prompt is easy! Here are a few of the ones that come to mind currently.                                             READ MORE

  It’s a freebie this week, so I chose to share some of the books I’ve unhauled recently. I’ve been trying to clear off space on my bookshelves (and, let’s face it, in the various stacks of books randomly scattered around my house), so I’ve gotten rid of like 6 full boxes of books in READ MORE

  This is a hard one, because I don’t even get close to reading all the books that come out. I don’t even read all the big titles each year. So choosing future classics from the tiny sliver of books I’ve actually read is somewhat of a challenge. I’ve got some here that I legitimately READ MORE

  This week’s prompt is “books with an adjective in the title.” I feel like this is a fairly broad category, so I’m going to look through my shelves and recent books on my Goodreads lists, and see which pop out first!                                READ MORE

  Any of you who have been around for a while will be fully expecting what I’m about to say: I never, ever stick to a TBR that doesn’t have an outside component to it. If I’m reading books for something like a book club or prize, I’ll read them because I said I would READ MORE
