Top Ten Tuesday #5


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Every Tuesday, book bloggers post a top ten list in response to a predetermined prompt. To learn more about Top Ten Tuesday, or see a list of future topics , head on over the The Broke and the Bookish. 





September 11:  Top Ten Books That Make You Think (About The World, People, Life, etc.)


1.) If I Stay by Gayle Forman.
Never take anything for granted, because in a flash, it could be gone. And it also made me wonder: If I was in the same situation as the main character was in, what would I choose?

2.) Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.
I was in my second year of highschool when I read this book, and it opened my eyes to many things, to say the least. It made me realise that everyone out there is fighting their own battles - and so much more.

3.) The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
This book, I think, made a huge effect on me. It made me realise that perhaps the world of The Hunger Games isn't too far off if we keep going to way we do. Our obsession with reality television and so many more issues.. It was a big eye opener. 

4.) Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver.
It makes you re-think some of your actions, for sure.

5.) On the Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta.

6.) The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.
This book makes me think about life, and love, and just so many things. Makes me feel all the things. 

7.) The Book Thief by Markus Zusack.
(Although I haven't finished it yet.) I am haunted by humans. Just.. that line.
