Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish (click the link to visit them) who pick a different topic each week.
In honour of the 5 year anniversary of Top Ten Tuesday, this week we are celebrating by sharing our favourite TTT topics over the years.
10. Castles: This was my first ever TTT published on 13th August 2013. The original topic was Top Ten Book with a X Setting and I chose my favourite books featuring castles…because hello! Castles are the best!
9. Books That Should Be Taught in Schools: I loved this topic as I think it’s really important what schools have on their reading lists! I wish the books I had to read for school were much more interesting than they were, I loved reading but I never wanted to read any of the books on the required reading list. I feel like schools have had the same lists for years and they need to move on!
8. Books I Read Before I Started Blogging: I chose this topic as a freebie, when we were given free rein to pick a topic of our own choosing. I read so many good books before I started blogging that I wished I’d reviewed, so this was a good opportunity to briefly talk about some of them.
7. Books You Should Read if You Like…: Any excuse to talk about Buffy The Vampire Slayer and other favourite TV shows is a winner in my book!
6. Underrated British Authors: I really enjoy spreading the love for British Authors!
5. Ten Adult Books for YA Readers: I liked this topic because I’m obviously a huge lover of YA but I think it’s really important to read a wide range of books, especially those written more for adults.
4. Desert Island Companions: It was really fun thinking about which book characters I’d like to be stranded on a desert island with!
3. Bookish Confessions: This topic was so cathartic. I just hope my friends didn’t read it. LOL.
2. Books to Make You SWOON: This topic was so much fun to do, and I loved seeing every else’s answers too. Who doesn’t enjoy talking about their book Boyfriends!?
1. Things That Make Life Easier as a Reader/Blogger: This was only the second TTT I took part in and it actually helped me with my blogging a lot. Before reading other people’s posts, I hadn’t been using a picture editing site, and a lot of people had put Picmonkey on their lists. I now use it all the time!
Lipsyy Lost & Found 
This is a great wrap-up. I visited your list of books to be taught in schools and I completely agree about His Dark Materials – I don’t think it’ll be too long before it’s on the curriculum. It would also cross over into spreading the love for British authors! 🙂 (not that Pullman is under-rated!).
Great list! I am pretty new to TTT (11 topics so far) and it’s fun to see what everyone is highlighting as their favorite lists.
Thanks, it’s definitely one of my favourite memes, hope you continue to enjoy them too! 🙂
The Deserted Island topic was so much fun. Some of us went for companionship and others went for practicality.
This is a great list! I wanna do the Bookish Confessions one now too! I haven’t been doing TTT posts for very long, so I just did my own thing this week. I’m so jealous of all the fun everyone seems to have had over the years. 🙂
