The Book Blogger Memory Challenge

Andge @ Down the Rabbit Hole

It’s time to catch up on book tags and memes since it’s been a while since I’ve done one! While I wasn’t directly tagged on this one, it seemed so much fun reading Marta’s responses.

This tag was originally created by Laura @ Laura’s Book Reviews.

The Rules

  • You have to answer the prompts without using the internet or looking at your bookshelves.
  • Your answers have to all come from memory!
  • Make sure to link to the person who originally tagged you (wasn’t directly tagged but please check out Marta’s blog!)
  • Once you’re done, you can tag five other people if you’d like.

Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I Haven’t Read But Want To

Andge @ Down the Rabbit Hole

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.

Like it is with TBRs, there is a never-ending line of authors I want to read and get to know but for some reason just never got around to doing that. It really has nothing to do with them personally. I’m such a mood reader that it makes it hard to pick up some genre of books when I’m not particularly up for it. Plus, I borrow so many books or get them from publishers that I’m “forced” to read those kinds of books over ones that don’t have such a time requirement to them.

So here is my list of authors with at least 1+ books I wanted to read but just haven’t yet.

Huntley Fitzpatrick

First and foremost, I wanted to highlight Huntley’s works. I regret not having fully read through one of her novels although I distinctly remember going as far as borrowing one of her books for a solid month back in the early 2010s. I am saddened by her recent passing but I know she leaves behind parts of herself in the books she wrote.

Top Ten Tuesday: Fiction Books With “Life” in the Title

Andge @ Down the Rabbit Hole

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.

It’s officially April! The sun is shining more brightly, the weather is almost nice enough to go out on longer bike rides, and I feel some renewed sense of adventure stirring inside of me.

Needless to say, spring is my absolute favourite season of the year. Yes, I like to think my growing seasonal allergies are worth the beauty and wonder of exploring the outdoors as things grow anew again after a long and temperamental winter.

With that in mind, for this week’s freebie TTT topic, I chose to focus on a theme related to new chapters or at least an appreciation of some of the good in our lives. While it’s fairly easy to find non-fictional books with the word “life” in its title – literally just think of most memoirs or self-help books aimed to better your life – it’s less commonly found in fictional titles so I have sought to create a collection of these.

Hopefully some of these stories may bring this sense of renewal and vitality in your life as we mull over the struggles and new beginnings some of these characters face.
