Top Ten Tuesday – Debut Novels
It’s been a while since I’ve done a Top Ten Tuesday, the weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, but I enjoyed thinking about this week’s topic, Top Ten Literary Debuts. I actually made a list of about 25, so culling it down to 10 was hard. Special mentions should obviously go to…
Top Ten Tuesday – Classics I Haven’t Read
As someone who has a Degree in English Literature and has been reading for well, the best part of 40 years, this weeks Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and The Bookish is an embarrassing post. There are so many holes in my classics reading that I really should get working on…

So, this week’s Top Ten Tuesday theme from The Broke and The Bookish is a back to school one, namely what literary characters would you like to have sitting at your lunch table. Given that I haven’t been at school in *whisper it* 24 years and I don’t read a lot of books featuring teenagers,…
