Books with Geographical Terms in the Title

This week’s prompt is “Books with Geographical Terms in the Title.” My first thought when I saw the prompt was, I’m not sure how many books I’ve read qualify. I used Jana’s link to geographical terms, cross-checked it with every book I’ve marked as Read on Goodreads, and I found ten books. I haven’t read some of these books since 2007 or earlier! Anyway, here’s what I found:

What about you? Which books did you find with geographical terms in the title? Do we have any in common?

Books I Loved So Much I Bought Them

This week’s prompt is “Books I Love So Much I Bought a Personal Copy for my Library.” My library isn’t huge, but it isn’t small either. A lot of the books I have are ones I haven’t even read yet. LOL. However, there are quite a few that I bought because I loved them so much. Here are my top ten choices:

What about you? Which books did you love so much you had to buy a copy for your library? Do we have any in common?

Books Set in a School

This week’s prompt is “School Freebie.” I’ve probably decided on the easiest iteration for this topic. I’ve decided to go with my top ten books set in a school. Here are my favorite choices from books I’ve read:

This was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I haven’t read many books set in a school. At least I found ten.

What about you? Which books were on your list this week? Do we have any in common?

I learned in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) that life is full of dialectics, or two opposing truths. In this case, the two opposing truths are: 1) I don’t agree with JKR’s stance regarding trans people, and 2) I still love Harry Potter.

Books I Love that were Written Over 10 Years Ago

I think this week’s prompt is “Books I Love that were Written Over 10 Years Ago.” As bloggers, I think we tend to focus on the more recently published books when there are so many other awesome books written a long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away ). Anyway, here are my top ten 15 books:

All of these books were published before 1990 and I rated them four or five stars when I read them.

What about you? Which books written more than 10 years ago did you love reading? Do we have any in common?

Books Linked to Specific Memories or Moments in My Life

This week’s actual prompt is “Hilarious Book Titles,” which didn’t really interest me. I don’t really read comedic books. I’m not opposed to them or anything; I just choose to read other things.

I’ve decided to do an old prompt I didn’t have the chance to participate in. It’s “Top Ten Books Linked to Specific Memories or Moments in My Life.” Each of these books have special meaning to me. My top ten includes:

Books My Dad Read to Me as a Child

Books My Parents Gave Me as a Child

The First Book I Remember Reading on My Own

Books I Read in High School

The First Book I Read While Living Away from Home

The TWO Books that Ignited My Love of Reading

What about you? Which books are linked to specific memories or moments in your life? Do we have any in common?

P.S. I’ll finally be responding to all the comments on my previous posts and this post today. I’ll also start commenting on other blogs again today.
