Top Ten Tuesday: 8/16/11 - Top Ten Tuesday Freebie


Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This meme was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list complete with one of our bloggers’ answers. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND post a comment on our post with a link to your Top Ten Tuesday post to share with us and all those who are participating. If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment.

    A friend of mine purchased Hunger Games today: I'm looking forward to seeing if she (an English teacher) falls for it as hard as everyone else seems to have!

    Ooo! I'm new to dystopian and my friend just loaned me the Hunger Games series. I can't wait to get started! I'll have to refer to your list again when I'm ready for the next dystopian.

    Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog earlier! I'm hosting my very first giveaway and I hope you'll stop by again.

    Happy Tuesday!

    possession sounds like a good book. I'm dying to read Divergent. If I didn't have some others I needed to read first I would go for that one next.

    Thanks for the top Dystopian list. I'm going to make it a goal to read the books on this list. I'm really enjoying dystopian novels right now.
