Books for My Younger Self | Top Ten Tuesday

I really enjoyed looking through all the books I read when I was a kid, so I chose some of my absolute favourites, would you be surprised that Harry Potter is on this list? I’m not.

On with this week’s list.

• Famous Five | These were such a great part of my childhood and they were some of my absolute favourites. I cannot wait til I have kids of my own and we can share them together.
• Harry Potter | I think you all know this was going to be here…
• Malory Towers | This was another series I truly adored, I think I could have chosen any of Blyton’s books for this prompt because they were all brilliantly written.
• Lord Loss | I definitely went through an emo phase and this was a huge part of it, these books were amazing and I am definitely going to be rereading this series.
• Twilight | Who wasn’t Team Edward back in the day? I fully understand the issues surrounding these books but they were definitely a big part of me growing up.

• Cirque du Freak | Another part of my emo phase, I really loved vampires and these books were the perfect contradiction to Twilight sparkly vampires.
• Eragon | The books in which the main character faints more than he’s awake. This series had such a great premise and I really loved it to begin with but they went down hill quickly and I don’t think I ended up finishing it.
• The Boy in the Striped Pajamas | This book had such an impact on me when I was younger. It was the first book about WWII that I read from a differing perspective.
• Goodnight Mister Tom | I adored this book when I was younger and the film ALWAYS makes me sob. Such a great book and if you haven’t read it you definitely should!
• Howl’s Moving Castle | I don’t even know what to say about this book! I love all the different characters and the world that’s been created.

Have you read any of these? Any you would recommend? Let me know!
