Top Ten Tuesday ~ Me

"Top Ten Tuesday" is an original feature/weekly meme created on the blog "The Broke and the Bookish". It was created because they are particularly fond of lists. It is now hosted by Jana from That Artsy Reader Girl.

Since I am just as fond of them as they are, I jump at the chance to share my lists with them! Have a look at their page, there are lots of other bloggers who share their lists here.

This week's topic is Me. (Example titles: Well Traveled could describe you if you like to travel, Hotshot Doc could describe you if you’re an awesome doctor, Falling into Place could describe a life where things are starting to work out, An Infinite Love Story could describe your relationship, It Could Have Been Her could describe a thing you’re happy you avoided or a path you could have taken but didn’t. You can explain your choices or not, and they can be as specific or as abstract as you’d like.)

I have found several books with topics or titles dear to my heart, that would describe me. First I thought, I'll sort them by importance but I found that too hard, so I stuck with my usual order: alphabetical
Reading and Lists
Adams, Sara Nisha "The Reading List" - 2021
I'm a book blogger, so I love reading. And I also love lists, as this challenge shows us.

Daughter
Gordimer, Nadine "Burger's Daughter" - 1979 
Of course I'm a daughter. You are either a son or a daughter of somebody. My parents passed away more than ten years ago but I will always be their daughter.

Mother
Gorky, Maxim (Максима Горького) "Mother" (RUS: Мать/Matj) - 1906/07
I am the mother of two sons and I would like to be seen as the mother in this book, a mother who doesn't just care about her own children but also about their friends and other young people who are our future.

A Needle and a Thread
I have always loved arts and crafts, I've been sewing clothes for the whole family, knitted jumpers and other essentials, but I even enjoyed crafting with paper even more.

Music
Seth, Vikram "An Equal Music" - 1999
Who doesn't like music???

Wife
Shalev, Zeruya "
Husband and Wife" (Hebr: בעל ואישה) - 2000
I've been married for almost 43 years, so I definitely am a wife.

Travelling was always a great passion of mine.

Kitchen/Cooking
Takahashi, Yuta "The Chibineko Kitchen" (J: ちびねこ亭の思い出ごはん 黒猫と初恋サンドイッチ/Chibinekoteino omoidegohan kuronekoto hatsukoisandoitchi) - 2020
Even though hubby loves cooking, you will also find me in the kitchen often.

Books
Tung, Debbie "
Book Love" - 2005
Of course, I absolutely love books. Our house is full of novels and non-fiction books.

Green
Ulitzkaya, Lyudmila "Imago" or "The Big Green Tent" (RUS: Зеленый шатер 
Zelenyi shater) - 2010
Green is my favourite colour and most of my clothes have some sort of green, there is green in all our rooms and if I could have had it, our car would have been green.

📚Happy Reading 📚
