Top Ten Hyped Books I’ve Never Read
I’m not a real big hype person, meaning that I don’t pay much attention to whether or not a book has a lot of hype. I don’t go out of my way to pick up books that win awards and … Continue reading →

Top Ten Beach Reads
Today’s topic is about beach reads, but I don’t really have a good concept of “beach read,” because I never go to the beach. Ew, sand. Yeah. However, there are many books over the years that, for one reason or … Continue reading →
Top Ten Chunksters
It’s a freebie topic this week, and I’ve decided to focus on chunksters. I’ve read quite a few chunksters in my life, and some of them are right up in my favorite books. In no particular order, here are some … Continue reading →
Top Ten Authors I Want to Meet
I’ve met a few authors here and there over the years, but there are some I’ve still never met (and some I can’t meet, not without going to the grave first…). In no particular order: 1. Brandon Sanderson – I … Continue reading →
