Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week there is a new topic and we all share our thoughts on that topic!
This weeks Topic is:

1. The Time Traveler's Wife" (2003) by Audrey Niffenegger - Seriously! You can't have a Top 10 list without the Time Traveler's Wife!
2. "The Time Machine" (1895) by H.G. Wells - Yes, I am totally aging myself, but come on!
3. "Time and Again" (1970) by Jack Finney - Once again, my generations kind of book

5. "Fragments" (2013) by Dan Wells - They travel from NYC all the way to Denver, so this counts!
6. "Gulliver's Travels" Jonathan Swift - Oldie but goodie!
7. "Time Travel" (1990) by Nora Roberts - Enterprising woman meets man from 300 years in the past!
8. "Tempest" (2012) by Julie Cross - Nineteen-year-old Jackson Meyer is a normal guy… he’s in college, has a girlfriend… and he can travel back through time.

Reunited is a fun, yet poignant story about the three very distinct teenagers who used to be best friends, but life got in the way. It’s a story about growing up and owning your responsibilities while trying to have a great time and seeing your all-time favorite band play one more time.
Good thinking with Gulliver's Travels! I love that book.
ReplyDeleteThere was no way for me to make a Top 10 list without Gulliver's Travels. Thanks for stopping by Christine!
DeleteI didn't think to include The Time Traveller's Wife! I should've done. Great list!
ReplyDeleteThank you Chrissi!
DeleteYou've got so much time in all of your titles! I didn't even think about time travel when I put my list together! You're so clever.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
Nah, just too much time on my hands that I'm able to search Google and other places for recommendations :)
DeleteI haven't read any of these on your list. But I do want to give The Time Machine a go one day.
ReplyDeleteMy list is perhaps an oldie but goodie list. Takes me back to my childhood. Thanks for stopping by Jade :)
DeleteGreta and the Goblin King looks good, I'd like to check it out sometime. Nice list. :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Becca :)
DeleteTime Travel by Nora Roberts totally sounds like something I'd love. I totally just went to add it to my TBR only to find it already on there... and that I owned a copy? I think that means I officially have too many books. lol

Oh Bonnie, you're as bad as I am! I have so many books on my shelves that I totally forget to add them to my owned list!
DeleteCool list! I did a best time travel book list last week for the freebie list. Obviously Time Traveler's Wife was near the top of that list. :-)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't see having a list with travel without The Time Traveler's Wife. Amazing book, and movie!
DeleteLove that you included good ol' Gulliver.
ReplyDeleteOf course! It's a book from my youth. Couldn't have a list without it!
