Top Five Tuesday -Books Set in your own country

Hello! I had fun with Top Five Tuesday last week so I did a post this week as well. Shanah @bionicbookwormblog is our host for this weekly discussion. I am not a mystery person so I will do a post I missed which was Top 5 Books set in your own country.

The United States!

1- Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

I know that you're all probably tired of me talking about this book. This book is a gem and one of my favorite if not my favorite book that is YA. Cath is such a great main character and we see so much growth from her. Wren kind of annoys me to no end, but that doesn't stop me from loving this book.

2- Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee

This was my favorite read of 2017! Tash is our main character, and she  has a lot of depth to her I would say. The premise of the book is that Tash and her friends have a web series based on Anna Karina by Leo Tolstoy. I was big into web series at the time, and I was so happy that someone had used it as a premise for a book. The novel also has Ace rep! I will need to reread this in June for Pride Month.

3- Simon Vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli

A gay romance a love to the theater I love this book so much. I finished this book in about  a  month. Simon and the gang are such great characters and I love their story. 

4- Geekerella by Ashley Poston

Such a fun geek tale! I'm not done with The Princess and the Fangirl but I could have easily put that book in here as well. I love Ashley Poston and I love all the characters in this book.

5-  To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han

This is such a cute romance. I have been reading the second book for months I  just need to find the time to finish it. The premise of this book is unique which is why I enjoy it so much. Lara Jean is my favorite character in this book and I would put her in my top 15 literary characters of all time.

    I feel the same way about Fangirl- one of my favorite YA reads. And I've never read Jenny Han but I loved the Netflix adaptation of To All The Boys!

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
