ReplyDeleteHere’s my TTT: https://readintowonderland.blogspot.com/2026/04/t10t-books-titles-that-describe-memy.html
Harlow Rose -- it's just the perfect title, right? So relatable.
DeleteThanks for dropping by and sharing your link!
I’m curious as to why you chose A Christmas Party to describe yourself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your #TTT
Shelleyrae, because I keep Christmas in my heart all the year through, like Scrooge vows to at the end of A Christmas Carol -- and from the day after Thanksgiving through January 7, my life and home are one big Christmas party :-D
DeleteWhat a great list!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rita :-)
DeleteThese are fun! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cindy! Same to you :-)
DeleteI'd Rather Be Reading and Lost in a Good Book are two that would definitely describe me. :D Thanks for commenting on my blog earlier.
ReplyDeleteLark, aren't those just perfect?
DeleteYou're welcome :-)
I love the reading and book-related titles!
ReplyDeleteLisa, same! Absolutely perfect for this.
DeleteThe Gary Sinise book sounds really good. I've always admired everything he does for the military. I'll have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Susan, it's a really enjoyable book! I definitely recommend it.
DeleteI have that Gary Sinise book on my shelf, thanks for the reminder. I think most of us included a book about books and reading, but you picked the perfect title.
ReplyDeleteCarla, it's a really good one!
DeleteAnd yeah, some titles lent themselves so perfectly to this, didn't they?
