Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Who doesn’t love a good list?

This week’s topic is: Top Ten Quotes from books you’ve read this year. So let’s get to it! In no particular order:

1.

3.

I have no finesse. – David Arnold (If I could, I would quote this entire book because it was so good, but this was right at the beginning of the story and when I read it I had the feeling that I was going to love the book – and I was right.)

5.

7.

10.

I really enjoyed this week’s topic! I’ll be honest I’m not very good at writing down quotes as I read but this post has inspired me to do so.  Did you do this week’s Top Ten Tuesday? I’m excited to see what quotes you loved!
