Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Every week I will share a list based on the topic provided by The Broke and the Bookish.
Enjoy and please feel free to join me, I’d love to hear your own lists on whatever topics are featured.
February 25: Top Ten Tuesday REWIND! (Pick from previous topics that you want to do again or may have missed!
I figured I would do something a little different with this Top Ten Rewind.
Favorite Book Quotes
1.“The trouble with giving yourself a pep talk is, that deep down you know it’s all bullshit.” ― Sophie Kinsella, Remember Me?
2. “I’m gonna try to steal home.” I smiled. “Silly Simon, it’s not stealing if I wave you in” Alice Clayton, Wallbanger ( I love me some innuendos) “I’m gonna try to steal home.”
3. “I am very interested and fascinated how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other.” ― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
4. “You’re good with the words, I’ll give you that.” “I’m good with my hands. Will you let me give you that?” ― Samantha Young, On Dublin Street
Characters (and Literary Figures) That I’d Name My Children After
5. Sylph – I get made fun of a lot for this name, but for some reason I love the way it sounds. It was from a book that I can’t seem remember the title but I have the book cover image ingrained in my mind as well as a general synopsis of the story. I’ve been looking for this book for so long and Sylph is all I have left.
Top Ten OCD Bookish Habits
6. My pulse jumps in my throat anytime I drop a book. So I’ve taken to picking them up, kissing them and telling them I’m sorry. Weird I know.
7. I look for spoiler filled reviews when a book makes me agitated. I need to know the bad that’s going to happen so I can mentally prepare myself.
Childhood Favorites
8. The Wonderful Pigs of Jillian Jiggs & Grandma and the Pirates & Something from Nothing by Phoebe Gilman
9. Love You Forever & Mortimer by Robert Munsch (really anything Robert Munsch)
10. Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White – my first ever chapter book
Love the Wallflower quote!

I love that you chose to do more than one topic – I really wanted to do that myself. I don’t kiss my books after I drop them, but my pulse definitely jumps into my throat. Nice list 🙂 My TTT.

I like how you picked different topics. I’m with you though, when I am reading something and I’m not really enjoying it, I often head over to goodreads and spoil myself on reviews, just to see if it’s as bad as I think it’s going to be. I also apologize to things I drop/bump into. It’s almost automatic.
