Top Ten Tuesday Animals from books






Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @thatartsyreadergirl. A love of lists inspires this weekly meme and bringing the book blogging community together. Each Week, Jana will make a post, and we book bloggers will write a response to the post. If we’re feeling like being different, we can use a different topic. This week our topic is animals from books. This topic as submitted by Paige @paigesquared and Jennifer Y @never2many2read.

1- Grover from The Percy Jackson Series by Rick Riordan

When I saw this prompt, I knew my favorite satyr from Percy Jackson would be on the list. Grover is Percy’s friend, but he is half-human, half-goat, so he fits this prompt. I love how sassy he is, and how much he cares for Percy.

2- Winnie the Pooh from Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Mine

I’ve maybe read these books as a child but I don’t remember them. Pooh is on this list because I love his personality in the media I’ve seen. He’s so much fun and I love him a lot. Also, I have one I got from Disney World when I was 18 that I still sleep with every night.

3- Charlotte from Charlotte’s Web by E. B. White  

I have not read this book yet, but I have plans to read it. I watched the film version of this as a child, and I fell in love with her. She’s another one that I knew would need to be on this list when I got the prompt.

4- The White Rabbit from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

I love Alice in Wonderland. I’ve read the book and watched the movies many times. I have always loved the white rabbit as a character. 

5-Babar from The Story of Babar by Jean de Brunhhoof

Oh, my goodness, Babar is a favorite elephant from my childhood. I love him and I feel like few people know about him.

6- Gus the Theatre Cat from a poem by T. S. Eliot

I needed to include the theatre cat from Cats. Cats is something I enjoy, and I like some songs from the musical. Gus is so cool and I love his character.

If you know me, you knew I needed to include a cat here from Cats the musical. My favorite cat

7- Black Beauty from Black Beauty by Anna Sewell

This is a story about a horse, and I love the book. I read this in college and I loved the story because I always a fan of horses. This is a sweet story about a horse and the owner.

8-Genevieve from Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans

I love Madeline and I have for a long time. I needed to include the dog from these books on this list. 

9- Clifford from Clifford the Big Red Dog by Norman Bridwell

Clifford is so cute and so cool. I just love him and Emily Elizabeth.

10- Callie from The House on the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune

This is the adorable cat from this novel. She is awesome.

Blogs I used when making my choices

    I think this is the first blog I see where you do different animals. Which I probably would have done if I'd stuck to the topic. LOL

    Thanks for visiting my TTT earlier.

    I can't believe I forgot about Clifford. I wanted a big red dog of my own so badly when I was a kid, haha.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release.

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
