Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is:
Ten Book Titles That Describe Me/My Life
This is a fun topic! Also could potentially be very eye opening as I scroll through my GoodReads. In no particular order, here are some titles, mostly from my TBR that describe me.
- Flawed by Cecelia Ahern – Aren’t we all?
- The Pale Ones by Bartholemew Bennett – If you’ve ever seen my skin tone, you would understand. I avoid the sunshine like the plague!
- The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black – I am constantly, persistently cold. Ask anyone. I bought a heated shawl for my office at work because I couldn’t take it.
- Never Let Me Sleep by Jennifer Brozek – Shoutout to my insomnia! We’ve been such close friends for so many years!
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky – I am not very good at being social, although I’ve gotten better as I’ve gotten older. When I was the age of the characters in this book, though, I was definitely a wallflower and didn’t talk much.
- Beautiful Chaos by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl – I like to think that this perfectly describes the inside of my brain at times. Complete chaos, but weirdly beautiful.
- Devilish by Maureen Johnson – Maybe. Just a little. (insert evil chuckle here)
- Furiously Happy by Jenny Lawson – Life is full of crazy contradictions.
- Never Contented Things by Sarah Porter – The title is referring to the fae, but I also never really feel content. I’m always looking for the next thing, or always vibrating on a weird frequency.
- The Story of Awkward by R.K. Ryals – Yeah. I’ve always been on the awkward side. At this point, I’ve just embraced it. What can you do?
Please leave your top tens in comments!

Life With No Plot 
Yes, we all have flaws for sure!
It was literally the first thing on my TBR on GoodReads and I was like, “Yep. That works!” 😀
I’m also intimately acquainted with insomnia (it’s currently 3am here)
Thanks for sharing your #TTT
Yep. Insomnia is a good friend, that’s for sure. Super clingy at times though.
Beautiful Chaos is where I live about 60% of the time.
Honestly, same.
My skin is also super pale and sensitive. Ironically, I live in the Phoenix area where it is ALWAYS hot and sunny. I use lots of sunscreen and try to stay indoors during the brightest/warmest hours of the day.
Happy TTT!

Great list! Thanks for the explanations!
Also! I see you’re currently reading The Winter of the Witch! The Winternight trilogy is one of my favorite series of all times! I hope you’re enjoying it!
I can definitely relate to some of your picks, including Wallflower and Awkward. I used to be The Coldest Girl in Coldtown but then I hit menopause (sigh). I love Jenny Lawson’s books!
Great list, Denise. I’m lucky that I’ve never really had insomnia, but I know others who do, it’s not fun. We all have flaws, yet look for the good. It’s nice getting to know a bit about you.
