Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This meme was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!
Each week we will post a new Top Ten list complete with one of our bloggers’ answers. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND post a comment on our post with a link to your Top Ten Tuesday post to share with us and all those who are participating. If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. If you can't come up with ten, don't worry about it---post as many as you can!
Interview with a Vampire
Queen of the Damned
The Vampire Lestat
These are 3 books but all the same author and reason for not reading them. I think they terrify me a bit. They are classics of sorts and my aunt and uncle bought all three for a present one Christmas a few years ago but I the font is small and I just know it's going to take me a while to actually read even one of them and this puts me off starting. Sad but true.
Chocolat: Loved the movie and then bought the book second hand assuming I'd read it but it's just sat there.
Battle Royale: Another movie I adored and then the book was £1 in the book shop I used to work in during their clearance sale. ONE POUND!!! So I bought it and it's mammoth but I really do want to read it someday.
Dear Fatty: My friend said this was really good and I love Dawn French but I started it but put it down again. it was funny but I'm a tough sell when it comes to autobiographies. Plus I found out my friend had it as a book on tape and think this may be the way to read/listen to it. Direct from the person involved.
Darkest Mercy: I love these books and the series as a whole but because it's the last one and i'm sad to see it end!
The Intruders: I bought a signed copy of this very cheap in a garden centre (random I know) but it's a shift in genres for an author I really like and I fear I won't like his crime novels as much as the sic-fi books.
I am Number Four: I wanted to read this before I saw the movie and so had a deadline as such but then the movie came and went and so my deadline disappeared sort of and now it just sits there again. D'OH.
Invincible: I bought this randomly and heard it was good and to cover is so lovely but I just haven't gotten around to reading it.
I loved Dear Fatty. I thought it was hilarious. You must read I Am Number Four!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of any of those. Good luck with your list. kaye—the road goes ever ever on

BOOKS & BEYOND
I have Battle Royale on my shelves unread as well. The sheer size of it puts me off (I haven't seen the movie!) I think I need to challenge myself to actually READ it this year.
