Top Ten Tuesday-- Favorite Places to read

 

Hi! Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme Jana hosts @thatartsyreadergirl This weekly meme was born out of a love of lists, and bringing the book blogging community together. Each Week, Jana will post a prompt, and we readers will post our list as a reply. We also have the option of going rogue, and posting a topic of our own choosing or a past topic. This week out topic is favorite places to read.

 

1- At my desk

 

I read a lot in my room and at my desk. I’m trying to find another method because I tend to stop reading and look at a notification that distracts me. I enjoy reading at my desk because it’s easy. 

2- In bed

I need to be wide awake to read in bed, but I might start doing it more. Reading in bed is less distracting for me, but it still can make me tired.

3- In the car

Some weeks I spend a lot of time in the car. When I’m in the the car I’ll try to read a chapter or two, but it sends up being more like 3-4 depending on how long the car ride is. Sometimes I don’t want to listen to the music other people in the car enjoy, so I’ll bring a book instead of listening to music on my phone.

4- On the couch

The couch is one of my favorite places to read, but like my bed, it can make me tired if I’m not fully awake. I enjoy reading on the couch because it is comfortable.

5- In a chair

I love reading in a chair that my mom has in her family room. I think it’s the perfect reading chair because it has support for your back, and it is comfortable.

6- At the kitchen table

I do this more at my mom’s but I love reading at the kitchen table or counter because it’s a good surface to put my book down on.

7- At the salon

I am one of those people that will read while waiting to get my hair done or waiting for my nails to dry. I will also read when I’m getting my toenails done. I love reading at the salon because there’s not much else to do there other than reading magazines. I’m not one of those people who like constant updates on the lives of celebrities, so I just prefer to read a book.

8- In the waiting room

From time to time, I will read a book while I’m in the waiting room. This is another case of me not wanting to read the magazines they have in the waiting room.

 

9- On A Plane

I don’t travel on planes all that much, maybe once every few years. Even for quick plan rides, I need to bring a book because most of the flights I go on have been quick and don’t really have the TV set up for everyone. Even when they do, most of the flights I take aren’t enough to finish a movie, so I end up just reading.

 

10- The Beach

I go down the shore a bit in the summer, but I don’t spend a lot of time on the beach. I really enjoy reading on the beach because it’s outside and it can be calm there with the waves. I also like seeing what other people are reading on the beach.

  3. The right chair makes all the difference. :) If it's late or I'm tired i might fall asleep but if I'm awake I love reading in a comfy chair! :)

  5. These are all good places to read. The salon is a place I haven't seen on any lists yet. I, like you, prefer reading a book instead of the celebrity magazines in waiting rooms and at the salon.

    Here's my TTT list.

  7. I forgot about the salon but I love to read there too. I enjoy it so much more than trying to make random small talk with the other people there. That's just so awkward for me.

    1. Yes making the random small talk is why I prefer to read at the salon.

  8. Oh yes! The hair salon. I've spent many hours reading under a hairdryer for sure!

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...
