Top Ten Tuesday: Words/Topics That Instantly Make Me Buy/Pick Up A Book

Top Ten Tuesdays is a meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish that features a new topic each week where we have to put down our top ten of it.

I used to participate in this meme but at some point I stopped. Not really sure why because I loved this meme, so I decided to just start it again. It's so much fun! =D



This week's topic:

Top Ten Words/Topics That Instantly Make Me Buy/Pick Up A Book

I have put up some books that have the certain topic in them.

10. Elements ~

I really love books where the character or characters can control the elements. Storm (love me some Merrick brothers!)

9. Vampires ~

Lately it might not be the newest thing in paranormal fiction, but I will always love vampire books.

8. Forbidden Love ~

Books about forbidden love are a big weakness of mine. Whether it's in the paranormal or contemporary genre, there's just something about them that makes me devour the pages.

7. Historical Fiction/Romance ~

I'm a sucker for history and historical fiction. Anything from ancient Egypt to Victorian England. I gotta read it.

6. Edgar Allen Poe ~

Poe is a small obsession of mine. I love his stories and poems but I also love books that are based on his poems or retellings from it. Anything.

5. Fairies/Fairies/Fey/Fae ~

2. Retellings ~

I adore fairytale and poem retellings. Lately there are lot fairytale retellings already but I'll I can say is; keep 'em coming! Also am in love with poem retellings. There aren't much of those but from what I've read so far it's pretty damn good writing!
