Top Ten Tuesday (8)

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they will post a new Top Ten list that one of their bloggers at The Broke and the Bookish will answer.


Freebie --- Make a top ten list about anything book related that you want. That super specific topic you thought would make a great top ten list or that past topic you wished you would have gotten a chance to participate it? This is the week to do it!


For my Freebie I'm Choosing to do favorite Book Quotes. Who doesn't love quotes? These are not in any order and are not necessarily the top ten quotes of all time but the ones I have bookmarked more recently on goodreads that I like a lot. I'm not very good at marking stuff when I'm reading so I always have to find it later.
