Top Ten Tuesday Books Where I've Been & Where I'd Like To Go

Happy Tuesday, and welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday, sponsored by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today's theme is Books About/Set In Places On My Travel Bucket List. Since I've lived in different places, I'm going to make a list of books set in places I've lived and those I want to go to. Truth be told, I really only want to go to Bologna, Italy, where my great-great-grandparents came from, but there are a few others.

Books from the places I've lived.

 Books On My Bucket List

This was a fun list to put together once I wrapped my head around it, and got some help from a friend. Thanks, Carrie! 

What about you, do we share any in common?

Top Ten Tuesday -- Favorites of 2025

Have you read any of my favorites from 2025? Let me know in the comments.

Top Ten Tuesday Books That Could Be Classics

Happy Tuesday, and welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday sponsored by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today's theme is books I think will be considered classics. I wasn't sure I was going to do this week's TTT because I just couldn't think of books that would fit the bill. Then I had a seizure, I'm fine, and all of a sudden I started thinking of books that would fit the bill. 

What do you think? Do you think that these books could be considered classics in a few years? What books do you think will be classics?

Top Ten Tuesday - First Reads That Made An Author A Favorite

 

Happy Tuesday and welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday sponsored by That Artsy Reader Girl. The theme this week is books you wish you could read for the first time. I've done that topic at least twice, maybe three times, so I asked my friend, Carrie of Reading is My SuperPower for help in putting a spin on this topic. First reads that made an author a favorite is one that Carrie suggested, and I really liked it, so I decided to use it. 

Spinning this theme brought back some great memories of not only reading these books, but when I started my blog eighteen years ago. Blogging has changed a bit in those eighteen years, and I'd like to think for the better.

Top Ten Tuesday - Satisfying Book Series

 Happy Tuesday, and welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday, sponsored by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today's theme is Satisfying Book Series. When I began blogging, I read and reviewed a lot of series. It seems as though there aren't that many, or I'm just not aware of them. I will say the Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer is my favorite at the moment.

The Daughters of Boston series by Julie Lessman

The Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer

David's Wives by Jill Eileen Smith

Skymar by Pepper Basham

The Ballantyne Legacy by Laura Frantz

Love Off Script by Angela Ruth Strong

In Search of a Prince by Toni Shiloh

Freddie & Grace Mysteries by Pepper Basham

King David's Brides by Mesu Andrews

Sewing In So Cal by Sarah Monzon

I hope my list showed you some new series that you weren't aware of. I could have added a lot more, but then it wouldn't be a Top Ten Tuesday. Let me know if you've read any of these.
