"A slow wide grin pulled at his lips. 'Let me see if I have this correctly,' he said, struggling not to crow, 'you are going to rub your hands all over my body...' --she narrowed her eyes in distaste, which only made his grin reach epic proportions--'slowly and thoroughly--'

'Really, Mr. Thorne?'

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list  that one of our bloggers here at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists! If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. Have fun with it! It's a fun way to get to know your fellow bloggers.



This week's topic is: Top Ten Books People Have Been Telling You That You MUST Read


Ohhhh, this one is particularly hard. Not many people recommend me a book personally. Mostly because it is a likely something outside my genre that I read. So these recommendations will be more like popular books I see around a LOT! Some might have been recommended personally to me too!


*in no particular order


 1. Scarlet by Marissa Meyer--I struggled with Cinder, but everyone tells me Scarlet is better! So, you all better be right because I bought it last weekend and will be reading it soon!
2. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas--I see this one around a lot! So it's like a recommendation, my friend even bought it for me for Xmas last year, I read it. I just didn't like it as much as I had hoped.
3. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins--another one of those reads that is just everywhere, although since the books are over and the movies are nearing the end with part 1 of the final book coming out this year. But the premise never really intrigued me enough to want to read it despite everyone saying I should.


4. A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness--I saw this one around a LOT! I decided I wanted to try it, but I only got around 100 pages read before I realized I just wasn't that into it. :(
5. The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon--one I am hoping I will enjoy! Saw it around a lot, read good reviews, bought it at TJMaxx for a mere $7 for the HC! Fingers crossed!
6. Legend by Marie Lu--maybe one not necessarily recommended to me, but one I see around quite a bit. Or did. It has me curious. So I'm in the debating stage of things!


7. The Glass Casket by McCormick Templeman--I saw this one around a LOT! It sounded interesting and the reviews were good. I was intrigued. I initially was going to write it off as one I didn't need, but it's in the TBR mountain.
8. The Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson--another one I was going to write off when NG first had it, but then reviews started popping up. And it sounded REALLY good! So into the TBR pile it went!
9. Dangerous by Shannon Hale--not sure how I stumbled onto this one. But I read a review or two and was convinced right away that I needed it. Reviews will do that to me! So into the TBR pile it is!


10. Stolen Songbird by Danielle L. Jensen--another one that I just kept seeing over the blogosphere. It sounded intriguing and the reviews just kept being positive. So yeah, it's in the TBR pile too!
