Top Ten Tuesday | Don't Quote Me On It


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week you compile a list of ten books which coincide with that week's theme. You can find everything you need to know about joining in here!


This week's theme is 'Top Ten Quotes I Loved From Books I Read In The Past Year Or So', and I decided to only pick quotes from books I've read this year. Purely because I've read quite a few books this year!

  1. I love how visual your list is and all these great quotes. The Simon one is probably my favorite. I loved that book, but missed the quote while I was reading. I am definitely writing that one down.

  10. I love that quote from Simon vs.the Homo Sapiens Agenda, I think that applies to everyone at some point in their lives, I know that's how I am feeling right now! I really do need to read that book!!!
    I have heard that quote from Jane Eyre's Sisters: How Women Live and Write the Heroine's Story before, but didn't know where it came from, I only knew that I liked it, so thanks for sharing otherwise I would have never known!
    Also that quote from Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear, my new favourite. It is most definitely going on the quote wall at home!
    Thanks for sharing, you have some great quotes on your list! :)
