Top Ten Tuesday - A Decade of Reading on August 11th

Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is...

A Decade of Reading on August 11th!


Happy Tuesday! This is a great prompt. It was tough to go through my Goodreads shelf, but it was an interesting trip down memory lane. I watched my reading change by volume and type of reading. Young adult books dominated my shelves in the 2010s, but now, there are few. I also read a LOT more back then. I am slowing down in my old age. Today, I am finishing When Lemons Give You Life, and below are the books I was reading on August 11th in the past ten years. 

  1. 2016 - Ready to Fall by Daisy Prescott
  2. 2017 - Lord of Shadows by Cassandra Clare
  3. 2018 - Hidden Pieces by Paula Stokes
  4. 2019 - Flashed by Zoey Castile
  5. 2020 - Dear Emmie Blue by Lia Louis
  1. 2021 - The Jasmine Project by Meredith Ireland
  2. 2022 - Lucy Checks In by Dee Ernst
  3. 2023 - Faking Christmas by Kerry Winfrey
  4. 2024 - Love and Other Conspiracies by Mallory Marlowe
  5. 2025 - The Second Chance Bus Stop by Ally Zetterberg

  1. It was really fun to see how my reading evolved as well in terms of genres. I also read so much more then too 🤣 This reminds me I still have The Jasmine Project and Dear Emmie Blue on my TBR... I'll definitely read them one day!

    1. Jasmine was a fun one, but Emmie Blue was memorable to me.

  2. I almost did this one up, but I was too tired last night and I needed to post a book review. I might work it up in the coming weeks. I'm interested in seeing what I read several years ago. I read a lot of YA in the 2010s, too.

    1. I think that's what I enjoyed the most, looking back and seeing the differences because my reading has changed quite a bit. I hope you find the time to take that trip down memory lane.

    1. When I first started pleasure reading, I was reading my daughter's book which were largely fantasy/dystopian. Every once in a while I read a light fantasy book. It's just not my goto.
