Top Ten Tuesdays – 11/3/15

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Every Tuesday they post a new Top Ten list prompt. This Tuesday however, I’m pouring all of my energy into NaNoWriMo. Since I didn’t want to skip the post completely – I love going around to everyone’s blog and reading their lists 🙂 – I decided to do a quick round-up of other people’s lists for you to enjoy this week. It’s early and a lot of the blogs I follow haven’t had a chance to post their list yet, so If I missed yours, please leave a link in the comments so everyone can find you!

Top Ten Tuesday – Top 10 Techno-thrillers

~ Erika K ~ 16 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Every Tuesday they post a new Top Ten list prompt. This week’s list is a Freebie – whatever list you want! Because today is also the first ever National IT Professionals Day (and I just happen to BE an IT professional), I decided to use technology as the inspiration for my list. Here it is – my Top Ten Techno-thrillers. Some feature modern-day, “we’re-almost-there” technology, and a few are set farther into the future, but all are fast-moving, technology driven stories that I’ve enjoyed. Don’t forget to leave a link to your own post in the comments!

TTT – Top Ten Books for Burgling 101

~ Erika K ~ 56 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Every Tuesday they post a new Top Ten list prompt. This week’s list is Top Ten Books That Would Be On Your Syllabus If You Taught “X” 101 (examples: YA fantasy 101, feminist literature 101, magic in YA 101, classic YA lit 101, world-building 101).  I read mostly mysteries and thrillers, so my first thought was to do Detecting 101. The more I tried to come up with titles, however, the more I kept thinking of books that would work better at the other end of the spectrum, so here you have it. My required reading for Burgling 101! (All Fiction – no real-life how-to’s here! 🙂 )

Be sure to let me know what books would be on your list this week in the comments, or leave a link back to your own TTT post! Continue reading →

~ Erika K ~ 25 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Every Tuesday they post a new Top Ten list prompt. This week’s list is Top Ten Fairytale Retellings I’ve Read. Since I can’t remember having read that many fairy tale retellings, I’m cheating a bit this week and using mythology and children’s stories as well. As always, if you have a book to add to my list, or want to leave a link back to your own list, please leave a comment!
