Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each week we talk about our top ten with a different topic provided by Jana. This week’s topic is top ten – Bookish discoveries I made in 2019
I made many bookish discoveries this year. From audiobooks to BookTube, my reading life has changed for the better. This week though, I’ll be talking about five books I discovered through Book Twitter and five books I discovered through BookTube.
BookTube Books:
A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro (via Blonde with a Book)
The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn Herman (via Princess of Paperback)
House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig (via Aphrodite Reads)
The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis (via Chelsea Dolling Reads)
Red Sister by Mark Lawrence (via Thoughts on Tomes)
Book Twitter Books:
Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody
Let’s Call it a Doomsday by Katie Henry
Red, White, & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
The Cruel Prince by Holly Black
Beartown by Fredrik Backman
These are just a handful of the incredible books I’ve discovered this year thanks to the wonderful creators on BookTube and the amazing friends I’ve made on book twitter. What bookish discoveries have you made in 2019? Let me know in the comments!
Keep on reading lovelies, Amanda.
What a fun way to do this week’s topic! I’ve heard so many good things about Red, White & Royal Blue, I really need to give it a try, and The Devouring Gray is one I still need to read, too. Great list!
Thank you!!

Yes please do!
That is so cool!
My TTT .
I love Book Twitter, but my TBR, unfortunately, doesn’t feel the same. xD I actually picked up House of Salt and Sorrows because of book blogger pressure, but I ended up absolutely loving it, so that’ll teach me to doubt my fellow bloggers. I’m eventually gonna have to pick up Red, White, & Royal Blue for the same reason lol. Peer pressure is real.
Here’s my TTT post.
It totally is! The hype really gets to you. This year I’m trying to focus on the backlist hyped books lol.
I tried reading Holly Black’s The Cruel Prince once, but I couldn’t get into it. I might have to give it another try :). Nice list!
It seems to be hit or miss with people!
