Lin's Perspective

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.

Today’s prompt: Bookish Wishes (List the top 10 books you’d love to own and include a link to your wishlist so that people can grant your wish. Make sure you link your wishlist to your mailing address [here’s how to do it on Amazon] or include the email address associated with your ereader in the list description so people know how to get the book to you. After you post, jump around the Linky and grant a wish or two if you’d like. Please don’t feel obligated to send anything to anyone!)

Hello! It has been a while, and I hope you all are doing well. We have been doing the same things over and over, haha, but thankfully, we are doing fine. Today I had to do 5 loads of laundry, I swear, these dirty clothes come out of nowhere! Is it just me??

Anyway, today’s prompt is very interesting, and I really debated whether I should participate. For the simple reason that I don’t feel comfortable with the idea of receiving anything for free from anyone. However, I love being active in our bookish community and giving back, which is a great way of spreading kindness and love in a world that really could use a little bit of both. This said, I will leave my Kindle email below, but please feel absolutely no obligation to send me anything!
