"'Oh yes,' he said, rolling his eyes. 'Another one of your fine ideas. As if I'd be messy enough to leave evidence behind. I'm with you practically day and night. Does that not absolve me from being a murderer? Or must we share a bed to prove my innocence? Actually...that might not be a terrible idea.'" p 254











TITLE: Stalking Jack the Ripper
AUTHOR: Kerri Maniscalco
PUBLISHER: Jimmy Patterson
GENRE: Historical YA Fiction
RELEASE DATE: September 20, 2016  



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: Ten Characters I'd Name A Child/Dog/Cat/Car/Etc. After


*in no particular order
**really no clue what I'd use these names for, but I like them enough to want to use them!


10. PUCK--he was a fun character and I feel like this would be a fun name to use!
9. BONES--definitely feeling like it would be a dog name!
8. YELENA--not sure what to use this one for, but she's such a strong heroine!


7. LOGAN--again, what to use the name with!
6. RILEY--one of those names I just love for boy or girl!
5. ADRIAN--what to use this name with?! Though I have used this as a character name for my own work.


4. ISAAC--I don't know why, I just like this name!
3. ETHAN--always loved this name! The nickname of said person/thing would be Darth Sullivan of course...though I think I'll be the only one who gets the joke! Another name I've used in another work in progress!
2. LUNA--because she was truly one of the great ones!


1. DAEMON--because how can you not adore this name?! And yes, that extra "e" gets me every time! LOL!
