Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl and it's a great way to show what you're loving in list form.  The topic changes every week, so there is always something new to discover! This week's topic is:  Top Ten Books On Your Spring TBR .  Like in the past, my TBR is very fluid and I never really stick to what is on my tentative plan.  In addition, I have been on a kick of ONLY reading books that I currently own...no trips to the library have occurred since January 1st!  I've stuck to this resolution and plan to continue for at least another couple months.  That being said, my TBR for Spring comes from books already in my possession and it will more than likely coincide with the theme of my "bookclub's" next reading challenge (at least the one that currently has the most votes in our FB poll): Reading from A-Z.  Here's what I have: A The Queen of the Big Time   by Adriana Trigiani B The ...

Don't know what the A-Z Blogging Challenge is?  Well, let me tell you!  Essentially, participants (hundreds!) spend the month of April (aside from Sundays...the much-coveted day of rest) blogging about their chosen topic in a corresponding day/letter format.  Day 1=A, Da...

This week's topic is:  Favorite Book Quotes .  Now, I love me a good quote.  I keep notebooks filled with quotes from books I've read and they pile up into glorious mountains of words.  Here are some of my favorites: "A snowball in the face is surely the perfect  beginning to a lasting friendship." ~Markus Zusak The Book Thief "If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals" ~JK Rowling Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire "We're all a little weird.  And life is a little weird.  And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness --and call it love--true love." ~Robert Fulghum True L...
