If you are fond of lists, especially Top 10 lists, this feature is the one to go with! Every week, the lovely ladies over at The Broke and the Bookish post a topic of their choice. Participating bloggers are asked to list their top 10's. I like to participate whenever I can. I love this idea, and often go a little crazy with adding 15, even 20 in my posts. Hehe!
This week's topic is: Top Ten Books That Make You Think (About The World, People, Life, etc.): This is by far the hardest Top Ten for me to put together. I will be the first one to admit I live for happy endings, so me reading anything too profound or heartwarming is probably not going to happen. It's a fact, and I'm not ashamed. I tried to make a list of the books that I have read that made me think, and not about steamy kisses think... the real deal thinking!
I categorized these and wound up with a list of 14 books. Oh well, I think my list is pretty good. Make sure to let me know in the comments.
