It's time again for Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and The Bookish!
This week's theme: Top Ten Books On My Summer TBR list
Here's my list:
1. Portrait of a Serial Killer by Patricia Cornwell: This is a story of what could have happened with Jack the Ripper.
2. A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson: I hear this book is quite funny. It seems like the perfect book to read while camping this summer!
3. Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman: I hear this is also quite funny.
4. For the Love of the Game by Michael Shaara: I love me some baseball!
5. Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson: I think summer is a good time for some swashbuckling!
6. The Hound of Baskerville by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: I have yet to read any Sherlock. I think I'll start with this one.
7. This is Where I Leave You by Jonathan Tropper: I want to read this before seeing the movie.
8. The Mouments Men by Robert Edsel: This is another I want to read before I see the movie.
9. The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan: I promised someone I would get caught p on this series before the newest book comes out.
10. Pretenders by Lisi Harrison: I PROMISED my niece I would read this (but I really have no interest.
Great list! Hope you enjoy Good Omens, The Monuments Men, and The Son of Neptune :) I also want to read This Is Where I Leave You before the movie comes out.
ReplyDeleteHappy reading! My TTT
I just picked up Good Omens from the library and am "on hold" for Son of Neptune. :)
DeleteOh wow. I don't know of most of these books, but I'm loving some of the covers. I'll have to look them up!
ReplyDeleteTreasure Island is a classic I have been meaning to read for years! My husband loves it.
DeleteI don't know most of these books but Son Of Neptune! It's not the best in the series but is there really a bad Percy Jackson book? I think not! =)
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed The Lost Hero. I can't wait.
DeleteNice list, I’m interested in reading Bill Bryson’s “A Walk in the Woods”, too, but so far, “A Short History of Nearly Everything” is the only book of his that I own.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think that “The Hound of the Baskervilles” is a great starting point for Arthur Conan Doyle, I started with this one as well. :)
I've never read any Bill Bryson, but I hear he's funny! And I am glad I am not the only one who wants to start Sherlock with The Hound of Baskerville.
DeleteI loooovvvveee Sherlock Holmes! My favorite story is A Scandal in Bohemia. That's the story with Irene Adler, who is a great female character who outwits Sherlock. The Son of Neptune is a great sequel and it will get you hooked on the series.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely have to check that out
