I’ve decided to muscle in on The Broke and the Bookish‘s fantastic Top Ten Tuesday meme! This week it’s…
🌈 Top Ten Books I’ve Recently Added To My TBR 🌈
I actually have a valid excuse for not posting for a while! I’ve just come back from a holiday to wonderful Cambodia. I spent a week temple hopping, hiking and and horse riding and a week in the Elephant Nature Park’s Cambodia sanctuary looking after overworked and mistreated elephants. It was pretty much paradise! I urge anyone who interested in interacting with elephants ethically (no riding, no bullhooks) or even to learn about the shocking treatments elephant’s must go through to make them ‘tame’ to check out the literally astonishing work they do in Thailand and Cambodia.
Anyway, swiftly on to this week’s TTT. It’s good to be back!
A Christmas Carol
For someone with a degree in English, I’ve read criminally little of Dickens. This year it will change and I fully intended on getting lost in this little one next Christmas!

Ted Hughes Bestiary
I love animals and I love Ted Hughes. Nuff said.

Anything by Neil Gaiman
I’ve only ever heard highly superlative things about Gaiman’s work and I look forward to finding out for myself!
🐝
Anything by Patrick Ness
Ditto Patrick Ness!
🐝
Anything by Terry Pratchett
Ditto Terry Pratchett! There’s a whole Discworld series out there for me to get my teeth into and I seriously have to stop dragging my feet!

Cold Comfort Farm
Embarrassingly, this has been on my TBR list for at least 5 years! It’s getting so ridiculous now something has to be done. Maybe I should even make it my next book?

Ok, that’s it for this week! Shoot away with your links in the comments to I can read your TTT!
The Graveyard Book has been on my TBR shelf for a little while now. I LOVED Coraline, so hopefully this book is just as good! Great Top Ten!
My TTT! 🙂
