Top Ten Tuesday: Contemps

Each week, The Broke and Bookish host a Top Ten Tuesday based on a certain bookish topic. Other bloggers are able to participate and post their own top ten list based on the topic.

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books in X Genre. This was REALLY hard for me. I narrowed it down to contemps BUT HOW COULD I CHOOSE. So I narrowed it down to contemps I’ve read in 2012 BUT HOW COULD I CHOOSE so finally I chose top ten contemps I’ve read in 2012 that made me cry or feel super strong emotions, basically.

Update: I suck at reading comprehension. The topic was actually top AUTHORS in X genre, but, you know, I already made this post so C’EST LA VIE! And what not. So here we go, hah!

  5. Something Like Normal is one of my favorites of 2012! Have you not read Every Day by David Levithan yet? I can’t imagine it not being on this list if you have! My favorite book of 2012, and possibly EVER!

  10. The fact that I’ve read 5 out of 10 of the books you picked out for this week makes me weirdly happy. I will say that the ones I have read are all books that I thoroughly emotional and moving and I LOVED THEM basically.
