Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish that combines lists and books. This week's topic is... Top Ten Books Written In The Past 10 Years That I Hope People Are Still Reading In 30 Years. You knew The Scorpio Races would be on here. I'll have reviews for Where Things Come Back and My Life Next Door up soon. The rest are obvious choices. As always, covers link to GoodReads.
I can't wait to see all of your lists.

The Scorpio Races is an excellent choice. I adore that book. Honestly, I adore anything Maggie writes. I have TFiOS on my list as well!
ReplyDeleteMy Top Ten Tuesday
The Scorpio Races is my favorite book right now. I love it so much! And TFIOS was my favorite book before I read The Scorpio Races.
DeleteI am so not surprised to see The Scorpio Races on here. ;) I swear I will read that book someday. I am still bummed I didn't get to read My Life Next Door but it comes out soon so I'll just have to read it then. Harry Potter and TFiOS are complete musts for this list!
ReplyDeleteSomeday soon? My Life Next Door is so super sweet. I just loved it!
DeleteHigh-five on John Green's books! :D Gah! So jealous that you already get to read My Life Next Door. Stephanie Perkins is just awesome! 10 is not enough right? ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat list! :D Drop by my Top 10?
DFTBA! My Life Next Door is FANTASTIC! You'll like it if you like Stephanie Perkins. And 10 is definitely not enough.
Deletei've only read one of those (paper towns) and didn't like it... but maybe i should give john green another chance.
ReplyDeleteyou've been tagged... http://growninsouthernground.wordpress.com/2012/05/27/tag-im-it/
That makes me so sad. Paper towns is one of my all time favorite books.
DeleteGreat list, per usual :-).
ReplyDeleteI am in NYC because I live here! Are you attending the book expo over at the Javits center? I DIE--it looks so fun. Think of me sadly doing homework on the east side as you frolic among books!!
Take a break and come hang out with us! I'll be there til Sunday morning.
DeleteLoved, loved, loved The Scorpio Races! Awesome list .
ReplyDeleteIt's my favorite book. Thanks!
Deleteoh, great list! I really showed my literary side in my list. ha! The entire Curseworkers series should still be read in thirty years! love it!
ReplyDeleteThose books will never get old.
DeleteFantastic list!! I love Anna Dressed in Blood. I wanted to put like a million books on my list lol!!
ReplyDeleteIt's scary and awesome and I hope kids will fall in love with Anna FOREVER.
DeleteWhat a great list. Of course, yes, to Harry Potter. I felt like I was "cheating" a little by picking it, but the end of the series was in the past decade, so...
ReplyDeleteIf we need to cheat to pick Harry Potter, then I'm totally for cheating.
DeleteTFiOS, so obvious, cannot believe we missed it. I haven't read most of these books, I will be checking them out! ~dixie
ReplyDeleteTFIOS is indeed great. I completely love every single book I picked and think they also have wide appeal. I hoe you like them if you read them.
DeleteLOL! I should have guessed you's have The Scorpio Races on the list. ;)
ReplyDeleteI can be extremely predictable sometimes.
DeleteI am so excited to meet you because I agree with you on .. every single book.
ReplyDeletePaper Towns is my favorite John Green. I love love love the Curseworkers series. Yes, I'm sure everyone picked Harry Potter. But how could you leave it off the list??
I am beyond excited to meet you! Next week is going to be amazing!
DeletePaper Towns was the perfect book for me when I read it, so I'm a little afraid to read it again.
I'll have to check out Revolution! I hadn't heard of that one and it looks intriguing!
ReplyDeleteAnd so many people have raved about Anna Dressed in Blood. I REALLY CAN'T HANDLE SCARY STUFF. But maybe... if I read it in blinding sunlight... on a beach... in the middle of the day... I'll be okay. We'll see.
Revolution is seriously amazing. I think I cried on the first page. Anna is worth a try. In daylight on a night you know you won't be alone.
DeleteOoo Lola more than Anna? I haven't gotten to Lola yet or Whaley. Revolution has been on my shelf for over a year. It is getting read before Bastille Day.
ReplyDeleteLOOOOVE Lola. And Where Things Come Back was great, but it also made me SOB SO MUCH. And Revolution was beautiful and intense and totally worth a read.
DeleteI loved Lola and the Boy Next Door! I just finished White Cat and borrowed Red Glove from the library today. Sadly, someone had already borrowed Black Heart.
ReplyDeleteYou'll be even sorrier when you finish Red Glove. SO GOOD. I hope you'll come back and tell me what you think of them. They are my favorite.
DeleteGreat list, Steph! I've only read 4 of these, but the rest are on my TBR list! ;)
ReplyDeleteI sure hope that people are still reading HP.

What books on your list I haven't read, I plan on reading eventually!
ReplyDeleteGreat list Steph! John Green would definitely be on my list! Along with some David Levithan and Nick Hornby though! Can't wait for your Where Things Come Back post!
