TOP TEN TUESDAY
January 27, 2015
It’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by the wonderful blog at The Broke and the Bookish! This week’s topic was Top Ten Books I’d Like to Read With My Book Club.
This week’s topic was geared towards the books I would choose to read with my book club and in a way, I’m a member of a few. I don’t have an official LOCAL book club that meets in person but I do still read with On the Same Page every month and while we were still going strong, I had a read with The Selective Collective too (though we’ve taken a hiatus). I was a member of the Forever YA book club which meets locally for a while, but it was very hard for us to get together and organize the meetings and it turns out I was in over my head with so many “required” reads at that time so I ended up only being able to participate for a few months. And I’ve also taken on a few read alongs and buddy reads with friends that I have just really, really enjoyed. Combine all those together, and THESE will be my Top Ten Tuesday selections!

I like your answer to this question, and you should know that I would definitely join your readalong or book club! I have finished the first in the Song and Fire series, so I would be happy to read along for more of the series. As well as that, I do need to read some of Gayle Foreman’s books as well!

Great choices, girl! Game of Thrones – I’ve never read the books, but I know the TV show by itself is enough for a big discussion haha. Completely agree about Gayle Forman – her books are great conversation starters. I still need to read Daughter of Smoke and Bone!
The Book of Broken Hearts and Meant to Be are so good. Sounds like a great book club.
I haven’t read any of the books you’ve mentioned!! I’ll have to check them out further… I’ve already added quite a few books to my reading wishlist.

I feel like the only way I would be able to read GOT is if I had a group of people to support me. They are just so chunky!
OOOh nice picks! Haven’t read any of these I’m afraid!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

Anything by Laini Taylor is absolute gold dust to read with buddies. You end up flailing so badly!
