 Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is books with adjectives in the title. I went to my Goodreads list and started with those that have been on there the longest and picked them. However, looking at my list I should probably be bothered by how often "dead" was used 😂  Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.
