Last week, I ran out of time to do my Top Ten Tuesday post, but I still loved the prompt of settings that I'd like to see more of. Since this week was a freebie, I decided to go ahead and do this prompt. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. The books I have read from these books have been absolutely amazing in the majority of circumstances, but there needs to be so much more, especially in traditional publishing for a wide range of audiences, though some of these are best suited to YA or NA. So, let's get started! 4H- I spent twelve years as a member of local 4H, and I have only read one book that ever had showing livestock at a county fair as a plotline. It was amazing, but I haven't seen this aspect of my life in any other book. I have a few ideas based on my experiences...

I started reviewing eARCs through Netgalley at the end of last year, and I hate that I don't love all of them. There are so many out there that I do love (and I've requested way too many) that I just don't have the time or energy to read books that I'm not enjoying. I definitely want to give books a chance, but I'm not going to force myself to keep reading something that I don't like. That being said, I understand that sometimes what I dislike about a book may make others want to read the book all the more. Thus far in 2019, there have been 3 ARCs that I ultimately decided to dnf. Here are my reviews, so you can decide for yourself if this recent release is something that should go on your tbr. Castle of Lies by Kiersi Burkhart I tried so hard to like and finish this book, but I just couldn't. The pov voices sound like the same, narration is far too repetitive. I kept on giving this book chances but nothing was able to entice me to keep reading. I h...

And I'm back for another week of Top Ten Tuesday! This prompt was really interesting for me, and I'm sure that there were be a lot of really interesting responses, since none of us have the same opinions. I chose four really specific things I want to argue and six that are just facts. So let's get started! Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Book quotes in book reviews. I seriously don't understand this because yeah, I might laugh at a certain quote or something, but I never get this involved into recording it and keeping it. I never get this involved into this idea ever. Owning so many copies of the same book. I mean, do what you what and I understand that there are a bunch of different covers that are beautiful, but I don't understand dropping that much money on a book when you could buy another book that you haven't read yet or don't own. It might be cool to have all these pretty covers, but that's a lot of...
