Top Ten Tuesday: Book Titles That Describe Me/My Life
 |
| A Long Obedience in the Same Direction by Eugene Peterson I was born into a Christian family and raised as a Jesus-follower and church-goer. This is central to my life. |
 |
| Just Kids by Patti Smith My mother is still living. She is 97-years-old. I have three siblings. All four of us are in our 60s or 70s. Mom still refers to us as her kids. |
 |
| The Family Tree by Carole Cadwalladr We just got back from Hawai'i where I learned a new word: OHANA. A term which encapsulates the love I have for my immediate family and those people I welcome into my found family. |
 |
| Teaching with Fire by Sam M. Intrator I was a secondary teacher for twenty-five years. I always worked on the craft of teaching and tried to be the best teacher I could be. |
 |
| Library Girl by Karen Henry Clark After being in the classroom for so many years I became a high school librarian, opening a new school and serving as a book and tech lady for twelve years before retiring. |
 |
| The Collectors: Stories edited by A.S. King As a kid I collected stamps and dolls. I still display my most precious dolls in a case in the living room. Later, as an adult, I collected Muffy Vanderbear® costumes. I still dress up my little stuffed bear in her finery on certain holidays. Oddly, I am not a book collector. |
 |
| The Friendly Austen by Natalie Tyler I love everything about and by Jane Austen: her novels, movies made from her novels, retellings of her novels, and information about Jane and life during the 19th Century. |
 |
| The Beatles in America by Spencer Leigh I have loved the Beatles practically my whole life. I still listen to them whenever I get a chance and never seem to get tired of the Fab Four. |
 |
| 44 Poems On Being With Each Other: A Poetry Unbound Collection by Pádraig Ó Tuama I am a poetry reader. I especially like to read poetry which is annotated by someone who understands it better than myself. This is one such collection. |
 |
| How to Read a Book by Monica Wood Shocking no one: I am a reader. And I'm always on the hunt for the next best book. |
