BEACH READS: Top Ten Tuesday


Welcome all to Top Ten Tuesday!  This is a weekly event hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.  You should all  participate as well, and be sure to link yours both in the comments below, and on The Broke and the Bookish blog.  

This weeks topic is Top Beach reads!  I am at the beach as often as humanly possible, however I don't do the whole.. "beach read" thing.  Its kinda whatever I want to read, whether its light, fun, and beachy or not.. Regardless though, here's some I think would be good for the beach, or the pool.. or wherever you so desire!

In Honor by Jessi Kirby
A cute fun story that has heart that anyone would fall in love with!
Don't Blink by James Patterson
A mob murder mystery.  What else could keep you entertained while gettin some sun?
Adorable, perfect, amazing light read.
The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins
If you want action and great characters, you got not one, not two, but three books full of it!
Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson
Heartfelt and amazing, perfect for a quick read at the beach!
Twilight by Stephanie Meyer
Easy to read, interesting story, fabulous writing
A Need So Beautiful by Suzanne Young
Quick read with relate-able character that make your heart melt!

Yes, I'm as shocked as any of you that I put Twilight on here!  I never even made it through the series, but I did devour that book on the beach in Puerto Rico, so I felt it was appropriate!
Any other great beach reads?  What are your faves?  Leave em below!

Stay Reading!

Top Ten Tuesday

Welcome to my first post for Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.


This weeks Top Ten Tuesday topic is:
 Top Ten favorite book quotes!
 I'm not sure I'll get ten, but I'll put the ones I really really love here.


The true hero is flawed. The true test of a champion is not whether he can triumph, but whether he can overcome obstacles - preferably of his own making - in order to triumph. -The Art of Racing in the Rain, Garth Stein


“I know that life isn't life if you just float through it. I know that the whole point- the only point- is to find the things that matter and hold onto them and fight for them and refuse to let them go.”  -Delirium, Lauren Oliver

"There are some feelings, and actions, for which words are utterly useless" -Dont Blink, James Patterson



In the movies, salvation is cheap. So is innocence. You pay a quarter, and a quarters worth is just what you get. Real life costs more, and most of the answers are different. -The Green Mile, Stephen King


“It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime...”  -The Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini


“That's what love is, when your hindsight is 20/20, and you still wouldn't change a thing.”  -The Pact, Jodi Picoult


“There is no one truth. There’s only what happened, based on how you perceive it.”  -The Pact, Jodi Picoult 



Let me know some of your favorite quotes!  And dont forget to link your Top Ten Tuesday at The Broke and the Bookish!



Stay Reading!
