#TopTenTuesday Books in the Cities

Top Ten Tuesday

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.

The rules are simple:

  • Each Tuesday, Jana assigns a new topic. Create your own Top Ten list that fits that topic – putting your unique spin on it if you want.
  • Everyone is welcome to join but please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own Top Ten Tuesday post.
  • Add your name to the Linky widget on that day’s post so that everyone can check out other bloggers’ lists.
  • Or if you don’t have a blog, just post your answers as a comment.

This week’s topic is Books Set In a Place I’d Love to Visit but my choices are books set in cities you might want to visit, although not necessarily during the period in which some of the books are set! Links from the title will take you to my review.

This week’s topic is Books From My Past Seasonal TBR Posts I STILL Haven’t Read. I’ve decided to look back at the list I put together in March for an earlier Top Ten Tuesday. I have to say I’m pretty pleased with how many of them I have actually read. It may have something to do with the fact I included a lot of books I needed to read for upcoming blog tours! Links from the titles will take you to my review or the book descrption on Goodreads.
