Top Ten Tuesday Is A Weekly Meme Hosted By The Lovely Ladies At The Artsy Reader Girl! Each Week, A New Topic Is Put Into Place And Bloggers Share Their Top Ten Accordingly.
Today I’m back with a TTT – I haven’t done one of these in ages and it’s the perfect opportunity to show my favourite books of my favourite genre. Yesterday I had a panic when thinking about this post. I didn’t know what genre to choose, it’s like choosing my…favourite food group. Sweet or Savoury etc. I love so many books across all genres, but since blogging I’ve read and disocvered different contemporaries that relate to life so much. So today I’m to sharing my Top Ten Contemporary Favourites – in no particluar order, I might like to add. You will see some ones that I have raved about.
Are We All Lemmings & Snowflakes? by Holly Bourne – I will not have a favoruite contempory list without the Queen of YA. | My Review
Kick the Moon by Muhammad Khan – This book took me by surprise, diverse and giving a voice. It’s about finding your identity, standing up for what’s right and expressing yourself. | My Review
Theatrical by Maggie Harcourt – Full of emotion and beauty, for fans of theatre and those who haven’t been like me. It will make you fall in love with this story and Maggie’s writing. | My Review
A Quiet Kind of Thunder by Sara Barnard – The winner of the YA Book Prize 2019 this year and rightly so. My favoruite will always be A Quiet Kind of Thunder, that book sang to me. | My Review
Paper Butterflies by Lisa Heathfield – This book made me cry so much. But it’s so raw and heartfelt and from the first page I was entranced. | My Review
The Summer of Us by Cecilia Vinesse – I loved this one last year. A group of teenagers finding themselves, friends and travelling the world during one summer before University, before things change. | My Review
So, half way writing this post I changed from Fantasy to Contemporary as my favurite genre. It’s one I will always love as it encompasses so much.

Great list! It’s so difficult to choose! We’re like ships passing in the night, though, because my fav genre is historical fiction!
Here’s my list…. https://readingladies.com/2019/06/03/top-ten-tuesday-favorite-books-in-my-favorite-genre-historical-fiction/
OMG, I love the cover for Theatrical! It couldn’t have been done better.
My TTT.
Contemporaries aren’t really my kind of thing, so I haven’t read any of these! I’m glad you enjoyed them though.

I’ve actually not read any of these but I’m really looking forward to Paper and Hearts society 😊😊😊
Adding all of these to my TBR! I don’t read a lot of contemporary, so I’m hoping to get more into this genre.
I love contemporary but I am guilty of having not read any. I read Starfish by Akemi and liked it 😀
I will be checking those!
Great list! I’ve only read Summer Blue Bird and really liked it a lot.
I do like contemporary, but I haven’t read any of these. I see that I need to add to my TBR!
I haven’t read any of the books listed in your TTT post this week, but many of them look really good!
