Top 10 Things That Make Me Pick Up a Book

Tuesday, April 02, 2019

Whenever I step into a bookstore, I always return to my favorite sections (the YA section and the clearance section, of course). I peer at all the books on the shelves and a lot of them I've heard of before. With booktube, book blogs, and bookstagram, I hear about new books quite often. However, just because I've heard about them doesn't make me immediately pick them up. 


There are certain elements of a book that forces me to read that book. And I usually end up loving the book because of it. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is: Top 10 Things That Make Me Immediately Want to Read A Book:
