"The witches were waiting.

The fire blazed behind the three cloaked figures like a scene from Macbeth--if Macbeth had been set in a bombed-out trailer park. Shadows flicked eerily across the uneven ground. A chilly wind whipped dry dust into tiny cyclones and sent a shiver down my spine. I was standing in the Dusty Acres trailer park--or what was left of Dusty Acres anyway. A fire blazed in the concrete barbecue, the only thing that remained of the place I'd once called home.

Home was nowhere now." p. 1

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

This week's topic is: Cozy/Wintry Reads

BOOKS WITH WINTRY THEMES:

10. WINTER by Marissa Meyer--title choice obviously!
