Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Books Guaranteed to Put an End to Your Book Slump



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.    

Happy Tuesday! Hope you're having a great week. This week's topic is made up of recommendations to end a reading slump. I will break mine down into genres so it is more specific.

 Your Book Slump

    It's great that you know books from many different genres that might rein us in when we wander off our bookish paths.

    Such a diverse list! I'm tempted to add Confessions of a Prairie Bitch to my TBR (and wishlist).

    Small town romance and historical fiction are genres that I enjoy. I've not yet tried Amish fiction. https://rosieamber.wordpress.com/

    I like how you broke your list down by genre. Mystery/thriller and historical fiction are my favorite genres. If you mix them together? Even better!

    Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
