Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created here at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list that one of our bloggers here at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists! If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. Have fun with it! It's a fun way to get to know your fellow bloggers.

    As usual, very good reasons! I forgot about the read-a-thons and the giveaways in mine. Such good reasons, those.

    I love that your reasons are so personalized instead of things that all bloggers can say. Great list.

    Also, I'm curious to see what you think of The Use and Abuse of Literature. I've been wanting to read it ever since I heard about it on NPR a while ago.

    I took part in Dewey's 24 hour readathon for the first time this year and had a lot of fun. I definitely wouldn't have known about it if it hadn't been for blogging.

    I love your list! A few different things I haven't seen on other top tens this week. I can't believe I didn't even think of the free books. I've won some great stuff. As always, I love that you put pictures (and videos) with everythign.

    That is an awesome list. I am now obsessed with the dewy decimal rap. I was way too amused by that.

    Excellent reasons, Deb! :) I must definitely participate in a Read-a-thon one year. This year they just seem to fall on weekends that I'm either working or going out of town. And I love the free books, too! Thank you for visiting and happy reading!

    I'm loving how personalised this list is, and that rap?! Who knew you could make the dewey decimal system cooler?

    Wow. I am very impressed with what you have accomplished in a year. I've been blogging for 5 and publishers are STILL not sending me ARCs, and the amount of followers you have is nothing short of amazing. Well done!

    The 24 Hour Readathon was the first book blogging event I ever participated in, too. And it'll have a special place in my heart forever, for just that reason. =)

    Yes, yes, yes to 6, 5, and 1! My TBR list is a bit crazy, but it's nothing compared to the list of books that I'd love to buy! And other book bloggers are amazing people. So glad to be part of such a bookish community!
