Okay...here goes...completely random...
My first, and probably still one of my favorite, books-about-books.
Basketball - when it's the only thing that can get you off the streets.
A wonderful memoir, a Pulitzer Prize winner, by
a high school English teacher just down the road from me.
The series of books that belonged to my Grandpap
that I chose to keep in his memory.
Always gives me a lift.
We all need a pretty good joke book, I think.
Poetry in traditional forms.
A gift from my mother-in-law after we married:
What a Young Wife Needs to Know.
Published in 1901.
A book from my childhood: Grimm's Fairy Tales.
On our first date, my (future) husband claimed to be reading
the exact same Ray Bradbury book I was.
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. Each Tuesday That Artsy Reader Girl assigns a topic and then post her top ten list that fits that topic. You’re more than welcome to join her and create your own top ten (or 2, 5, 20, etc.) list as well. Feel free to put a unique spin on the topic to make it work for you! Please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own post so that others know where to find more information.
I'm intrigued by What a young wife needs to know. I'm curious!
ReplyDeleteOOh nice collection! New to me ones here but yeah, the one about What a Young Wife Needs to Know in 1901 sounds intriguing for sure!

I like the sound of The Enchanted April, especially if you say that it gives you a lift.

You say that he “claimed to be reading” as though you doubt it.
ReplyDeleteMmmm...for context, he also took me dancing and to the House of Pies. I have never been dancing with my husband again, and I learned later that he abhors sweets. Mmmm...
