Top Ten Tuesday (TTT) brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish.
Welcome back to another Tuesday! This week is a fun topic…
Top Ten Quotes I Loved From Books I Read in the Past Year or So
(taken from Broke & Bookish post topic from Freebie week)
I am terrible about marking book quotes. TERRIBLE. This year I’ve tried to get better. I mark pages with sticky notes or pieces of paper as I go (I still can’t write in my books!) and I even include some quotes in my book reviews. (Alas, most of my books are library books, so if I don’t get the quote in my review it’s probably lost to me forever.)
For this post, I’ve looked back through some of my book reviews of the past year and pulled favorite quotes from there. Some make me laugh, others bring a tear to my eye. Others just make me think.
In all fairness I tried to keep this to ten, but somehow ended up with eleven. Like any mother, I love them all. Don’t make me choose!
Top Ten (Eleven) Book Quotes I’ve Read This Year
All the Light We Cannot See
Among the Ten Thousand Things
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
The Bones of You
A Dangerous Place
The Enchanted April
The Husband’s Secret
The Last Bookaneer
A Master Plan for Rescue
The Rosie Project
Where’d You Go, Bernadette
Looking back, I’ve read some fantastic books this year.
What book quotes came to your mind when you saw this week’s topic? What book do I need to read to experience new words to live by? Or laugh by? Give me your ideas in the comments, and link up to your own TTT if you’ve got one!

Honestly, Among the Ten Thousand Things wasn’t really my cuppa, but I did love that quote. 🙂 All the rest I will vouch for.

I thought the writing was so beautiful. I normally don’t read books about WWII, but it was for my 2015 reading challenge. I actually ended up really loving it. Very different from books I usually choose.
