Top Ten Tuesday: 9/11/12 - Top Ten Books That Make You Think


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.

  1. Nice lists! I considered putting Harry Potter on my list, but it eventually dropped of, but I agree it made me think about important stuff!

  6. Oh, I forgot about Wither! While it didn't immediately make me think, after a while I really thought about that world and how far is too far when it comes to science. I love that your lists are all pretty diverse, but there are some similar themes running through them.

  9. Wow, so many YA books I've never read! 1984 is on my list too, Tammy. It was one of the first and most important dystopian novels. I LOVE the Lorax pick. I forgot all about children's books, I think I'd need a whole new list! Thanks for stopping by our Blog!

  10. I almost included Harry Potter too, but didn't. Though it definitely did make me think about the way people perceive others and, of course, how quickly the media can skew anything!

  11. HP, Divergent and Hunger Games have all made me think about several things. I'd say HP is one of the most influential piece of work our generation has seen and I think it's one of the reason why we love books so much, especially YA. THG is definitely one of the books that's been thrown out this week and I don't think there are that many people who can say that HG hasn't made them rethink their values.

  22. Awesome lists! There's a lot on here I have yet to read, but am happy to see The Hunger Games made it on. You wouldn't think it would cause a lot of thought, but after reading it I couldn't help but think about all the possibilities, political references, etc.

  23. I'd totally forgotten about Animal Farm... that was one of my favorite reads in school and definitely made me think.
