Top Ten Tuesday is an original weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. I thought this would be a fun way to share a condensed version of potential rambles and thoughts that I have.

This Week’s Theme:
Top Ten Books I Would
Consider Rereading

Initial Thoughts:

I don’t really do rereads. The only times I have attempted to reread a book was either because I dropped the book partway through (i.e. Jellicoe Road) or if I had to scope out parts again for a novel study.

Hello readers of the world (again)!

It’s officially two weeks until Inspire! Toronto International Book Fair running from November 13-16, 2014. Remember, if you need a vacation destination, perhaps this is a good excuse to come visit Toronto, Canada! If you haven’t read my initial post about the fair, you can read all about it by clicking here.

This isn’t a sponsored post. I’m not making any of the rules listed below, just paraphrasing key details (and we all know how unreliable I am). So for full details on author signings, you can click on this link to read all about it.

This Week’s Theme:
Top Ten Movies To Get
In The Halloween Spirit

Initial Thoughts:

(I’m alive!)

When I think of Halloween, images of Fall weather and dark subject matters are conjured first. So with this in mind, I tried to come up with a balanced list for all ages. But with this particular genre, it’s mostly about the interest and propensity to sit through mind boggling and heart-pounding scenes that seem to matter most. Some are creepy, some hurt your brain, and some are just funny—but many listed are worthy viewing experiences because of the notoriety that comes with it.

All images link to their respective Rotten Tomatoes review (because I couldn’t think of anywhere else to link to.)
