Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share our top ten anticipated book releases for the remainder of 2021.

I did look through Publisher’s Weekly for this post to see if there are any books Continue Reading…
Top Ten Picture Books
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share our top ten bookish wishes in honor of her birthday today. (Happy birthday, Jana!)

Ten Quotes about Making a Difference
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share quotes from books on a theme of our choice this week. I glanced through the quotes I’ve saved on GoodReads.

Ten Book Titles That Are Complete Sentences
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten book titles that are complete sentences this week. I was afraid it would take me forever to find books for this post!

Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten books with nature on the cover this week.

Ten Animals from Books
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten animals from books this week. This is such a common theme in my reading that I have an entire shelf of animal books on GoodReads so the hardest part of this prompt was narrowing it down to ten! Most of the links go to Continue Reading…
Ten Colorful Book Covers
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten colorful book covers this week.

Ten Book Titles That Work As Crayola Color Names

Ten Books I’d Throw into the Ocean
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten “Books I’d Throw into the Ocean.” I interpret this to mean books that are just so terrible (in my humble opinion) that I think they belong at the bottom of the ocean. A few weeks ago, I shared ten books I gave away and Continue Reading…
Ten Places in Books Where I’d Love to Live
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share “ten places in books where I’d love to live.” This is a fun prompt! I decided to focus on fantasy books. It was surprisingly hard to choose! I didn’t want to choose a place like Westeros, where I would probably be killed in a war Continue Reading…
