[Top Ten Tuesday] – #42 – Top Ten Things I Wouldn’t Mind Santa Bringing This Year

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 Things I Wouldn’t
Mind Santa Bringing This Year

Initial Thoughts:

Between the recent top ten lists, I’m sure I’ve listed the books I’d want immediately. So I’ll just omit the book-specific portion and just go with things that I need more of this holiday (which may be alleviated thanks to Boxing Day). Nothing below is really extravagant—I’m a simple person to please.

[Miscellaneous] 2014 Book Blog Survey

Hello you,

I’ll keep this brief: it would be super cool of you to complete the survey below so I can better understand a few things: my readership, the current curated content, and how I can continue to build this community in the coming year. I do have some rough ideas as to the kinks I need to work out but your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

You can also click here to be taken to the Google Docs page or fill the form out below.

(Note: If you do decide to do this, I wouldn’t suggest you complete it in the WordPress Reader–I’m not sure data saves if you misclick outside the window–you’d have to start over.)

Cheers,
Joseph

This Week’s Theme:
Top Ten Books I Read In 2014

Initial Thoughts:

The theme this week was “Top Books Read in 2014” but I’m going to shift the focus a bit and highlight certain categories, like many award shows, and select a top contender for each. I’m sticking to books solely read in 2014. I’m going to be extremely cheesy and call it the Thinker Awards (so you can think about what you would award each category when you respond–but also because thinking is fun?).

I have also enlisted the help of some friends for their input as well (because I have clearly not read everything this list describes LOL). Thanks Jeffrey and Savindi for the assistance. I have marked their nominations with a star*.
