Hello Lovelies!! Yes, once again, I didn't get my Top Ten Tuesday post up on a Tuesday, but I really wanted to share my choices, so here they are. (Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish )

My Top Ten Books I'd Give to Readers Who Have Never Read Graphic Novels

For readers who enjoy alternate readings of history and a little darkness:

For readers who enjoy superheroes and multiple generation storylines: 

For readers who enjoy story lines (with bonus humor!) that begin in separate places but merge:

For readers who enjoy more recent history through an individual's perspective:

For readers who enjoy unique (and a little bizarre) storylines:

For readers who enjoy sassy superheroes:

For readers who enjoy adventure with a side of fantasy:

For readers who value humor (with a dash of seriousness) but don't feel quite ready for the full-on graphic novel format:

For readers who enjoy unusual non-human main characters and adventures:

And for readers who want to read what's new and popular (to be honest, I haven't read this one quite yet, but I'm psyched for it!!!):

So what do you think lovelies?? Which of these have you read? Which graphic novels would you suggest to me??

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll  is a very entertaining classic. I think everyone knows the story of young Alice who follows a White Rabbit into the world of Wonderland where everything is just slightly (or significantly) strange. For some reason, every time I've picked up Alice's Adventures before, I've put it down without making it more than 10 pages or so. But this time, I managed to finish it. It's a quirky sort of book, but I enjoyed it. It did make me think of The Phantom Tollbooth (here's my review of that classic), but I preferred Carroll's novel to Juster's. There's some great play on words and delightful misunderstandings because of homophones and characters not paying attention to each other. I think this is a worthwhile classic, but I don't actually have that much to say about it. Middle Grade March Count: 5

TBT: The Witch of Blackbird Pond

In middle school, I was a member of this reading club where we had a set of books to read as a team, and then we did like little quizzes on them against other teams. (SUPER NERD!). And now, I'm not entirely certain, but I feel pretty sure that club was where I read this book for the first time. The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare is a Newbery award winning historical fiction novel. Orphan Kit Tyler has been moved from her home in the Caribbean to her puritan relative's home in Connecticut.  She feels like she has nothing in common with these relatives, but she does form an attachment with an old Quaker woman and a young sailor, Nat. Of course breaking out of the mold is not without its price, and Kit learns this for herself when she is accused of witchcraft. This is one of those books that I think about constantly. I haven't reread it in several years, but I always want to. I recommend it frequently to other. This is a book for readers...
