Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. Every week, they post a new Top Ten topic and other bloggers respond with their own lists. I take part in this meme when I have something to say for the topic and I remember what day it is.
This week marks the 5 year anniversary of Top Ten Tuesday. Technically, this week’s topic is Top Ten Topics We’ve Done, but since I haven’t been on the TTT bandwagon very long, I didn’t have a lot of topics to choose from that I’ve actually done. So here are ten topics that were “assigned” before I started taking part, that I wish I’d responded to. To make it more interesting, I’ve included a few of what I think my responses would be.
1. Villains/Criminals/Other Nasties
- Mayor Prentis from The Chaos Walking series by Patrick Ness
- Ruin from the Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson
2. Favorite Heroines
- Katsa from Graceling by Kristen Cashore
- Vin from the Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson
- Puck from Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater
3. Fictional Crushes
- Gansey from The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater
- Eugenides from The Queen’s Thief Series by Megan Whalen Turner
- Zak from The Gallagher Girl series by Ally Carter
4. Fictional BFFs (I’m taking this as characters I want to be friends with)
- Cammie Morgan and Liz from The Gallagher Girl series by Ally Carter
- Emily from Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson
5. Book’s I Just HAD to Buy…but are still sitting on my bookshelf
- Shades of Earth (Across the Universe #3) by Beth Revis
- Black Dove White Raven by Elizabeth Wein
6. Books That Made You Think
- Going Underground by Susan Vaught
- The Vigilante Poets of Selwyn Academy by Kate Hattemer
7. Book Covers I Wish I Could Redesign
- Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas
- Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray
- Uprooted by Naomi Novik
8. Books I Had Very Strong Feelings About

- The King of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner (LOVED IT)
9. Best Book Covers
- The King of Attolia (Queen’s Thief #3) by Megan Whalen Turner
- The Cormorant (Blackbirds #3) by Chuck Wendig
10. Books To Read if You Want Something Light and Fun

I haven’t been part of TTT long either, so this week I just did my own thing. This is a great idea though and I wish I had done it. Maybe I’ll have to do something like it next time a freebie week comes up. Great list, and happy reading!

Thanks 🙂 I’ve always looked at the list of previous topics and wished I’d answered them so when I saw this week’s topic I decided to go for it.

Random shots of dresses are an annoying cover topic–unless the book is about a dress, no matter how pretty it is, it isn’t relevant.

It makes me so angry when they waste a boring “dress” cover on a great book (shout out to Beauty Queens by Libba Bray)

I picked ‘Book Covers I Wish I Could Redesign’ too! There are so many out there that I am just not happy with! 🙂 I hope your carry on with TTT, you look like you would have made some great choices for the topics you listed 🙂

Nice take on this topic! I was in the same boat as you in that I haven’t been doing TTT all that long, so I just picked an old topic to do.

Love how you formatted it! I did mine in much the same way, but quite honestly I think yours turned out better. 😉 Unfortunately, I didn’t recognize any books on your list except Uprooted, and I haven’t even read that one! Gaaaaaaaa! 😦 Well, better get areadin’ before it gets too late for all… These… Books… So heavy!!! *collapses under the weight of all the books I need to read* 😉 Happy reading!
