Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday! Since Thanksgiving is just around the corner here in the US, this week’s topic is Thankful Freebie.  Here are some bookish people and things I’m thankful for.

Parents who encouraged reading-My parents read to me all the time when I was a child.  I can still remember sitting next to them as they read and re-read huge stacks of books to me.

A husband who tolerates my obsession with books-He might not completely understand it, but he puts up with my books taking up so much space in our house.

Kids who like to read-I love reading to my children, and having them has helped me rediscover how much fun children’s books can be!

Teachers who made reading fun-I was fortunate enough to have several teachers from elementary through college who continued to foster my love of reading.  I can vividly remember my fifth grade teacher setting aside time each day just to read to the class.  There were no quizzes or tests attached to the books.  It was just a time to enjoy sharing a story.

Friends who love reading-Several of my friends share my love of reading, and we swap book recommendations all the time.

Books in different formats-I love the feel and smell of a physical book.  There was a time when I thought I’d never warm up to ebooks.  However, most of the books I review here at Long and Short Reviews are in electronic form.  I’ve come to realize they are very convenient, and are a space saver when traveling.

Time to read-I have much less time to read than I used to, but I’m very thankful for the time I do have to read.

Bookstores-I have a wonderful bookstore in my town that sells new and used books.  I love browsing the shelves and discovering something new, or at least new to me!

What sort of bookish people or things are you thankful for?  Happy Thanksgiving!

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday!  This week’s challenge is Book Titles with Numbers In Them.  I decided to limit myself to books that I’ve reviewed during my time here at Long and Short Reviews.  This proved to be much more difficult than I thought it would be because I did not include volume/series numbers or ordinal numbers (first, second, etc).  I’ve been reviewing for over ten years and I only found ten books with numbers in them!  I had to go pretty far back in my reviews to find these.  Titles are linked to Goodreads.

Nine Elms by Robert Bryndza-I just read this and if you like a thriller/mystery, you might check it out. Here’s my review.

Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo-I read this last year and loved it.  Here’s my review.

Two Days Until Midnight by Lynn Crandall-A quick, contemporary, paranormal romance I read last year.  My review

The Seven Magical Jewels of Ireland by Robert Adams-I had to go back five years for this one.  My review.

Twelve Days of Christmas by Barbara Miller-Again, I went back five years for this sweet, historical romance.  My review

Happy Tuesday!  This week is about books I enjoyed that were outside of my comfort zone.  Some of these books I read a long time ago for a class, some I picked up out of curiosity, and some were recommended to me.  I enjoyed them all, and a couple even became favorites!

The Giver by Lois Lowry-I read this for a class in school when I was 14.  I’d never read anything like it, and I was blown away I felt when I finished it.  I immediately read it again on my own.

Animal Farm by George Orwell-I read this in the same class as The Giver, and I still remember how unsettled I felt as I read it.  I’m glad I read it, but it didn’t become a favorite like The Giver.

Star Racers by Martin Felando-This is a fun science fiction read.  I generally read more in the fantasy and paranormal genres so this was a step in a different direction.  It was a pretty fun read!

The Nexus Mirror by N.E. Michael-I recently read this for review and really enjoyed it.  It is a blend of science fiction and fantasy.  Again, I don’t read a lot of science fiction, but I really enjoyed this and am looking forward to the next installment in the series.

The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King-My husband recommended this book to me because I enjoy fantasy.  It is the only thing I’ve ever read by Stephen King.  While I don’t feel the need to read any more of his work, I’m glad I read this one.

Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice-I know I’ve mentioned my love of this book before, and it certainly isn’t out of my comfort zone now.  However, when I read it for the first time when I was 16, it was.  I’d never read anything with vampires in it.  I picked it up because I was curious.  I absolutely loved it, and it immediately became a favorite.

When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon-This doesn’t seem like it would be out of my comfort zone, but I actually don’t read a lot of contemporary romance.  I tend to gravitate more toward historical or paranormal romance.  This story was highly enjoyable and I really liked From Twinkle with Love too.  I’m thinking I need to take time to read more contemporaries!

This concludes my list for the week.  I apologize for being a bit short.  I probably could have stretched my list out to ten, but I feel these books were the most memorable for me and best represent what is or used to be out of my comfort zone.  What books have you read out of your comfort zone?  Would any of these make your list?
