Top Ten Tuesday #10: Best Books I Read Before I Was A Blogger

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted at The Broke and the Bookish to highlight a top ten list related to book blogging, and to get to know fellow book bloggers. GREAT topic.

Quick and dirty TTT today, guys – I’m super busy with work and haven’t been sleeping or doing anything else much lately.

Rookie mistake. I’m really hoping to change that as this blog […]
