Top Ten Tuesday-- Books to Pull You Out of a Reading Slump
These are books that are guaranteed to pull me out of a reading slump! Maybe they will for you too.
1. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte-- This is my all-time favorite book. I first read it as a teenager and it only gets better each time I read it. Truly a timeless classic.
2. Persuasion by Jane Austen-- My favorite Jane Austen novel.
3. Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier-- One of my favorite historical fantasies. It's a beautiful retelling and it's just guaranteed to drawn you in.
4. Harry Potter series J.K. Rowling-- If I'm not sure what to read...this is always a go-to.
5. Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Ayedemi-- My love of ya fantasy has been reignited!
6. Yes Please by Amy Poehler-- Listen to this one. She has her friends and family do their own parts and it's hilarious!
7. Born a Crime by Trevor Noah-- Also listen to this one. His accent and his optimism despite his awful childhood is truly inspiring.
8. The Demon-haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark by Carl Sagan-- Carl Sagan can always get me out of any funk.
9. Brazen: Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World by Penelope Bragieu-- Great graphic novel collection of women who truly rocked the world.
10. Lafayette in the Somewhat United States by Sarah Vowell-- I listened to this one. If you love history and comedy, Ms. Vowell is a true national treasure.
