TOP TEN AWESOME AND BADASS GIRLS ON BOOKS

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created and hosted by The Broke and the Bookish where, each week, a Top Ten list is posted based on a particular topic.

My first top ten list was such a success, and I thank those who have commented! I appreciated the small number of you and you have no idea how much it means to me!

Anyway, this week's TOP TEN topic is a freebie! BOOYEAH!! I have so many things in mind *chugs in thinking juice* But I worry that someone might have done this already. Oh well!  Let's pump it!


1. Lisbeth Salander from The Millenium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson
If you don't know who Lisbeth Salander is, you must be living 20,000 feet under the sea and I feel sorry for you because you will love her. She's so badass with her clothing, her look, just everything. Plus she's a hacker, super smart and just, UGH! You should understand that I may have fallen in love with her awesomeness! And she's less than 5 feet! If pushing an ax into your notorious dad ain't a sign of badass-ness, then I don't know what is. Add the tattoos and piercings? Nuff said.

Book Nerd Special RECAP: #VTRinPH

To wait for April 26 was not an easy task. You’d have to be informed of Tahereh Mafi’s, Ransom Riggs’ and Veronica Rossi’s visit to the Philippines early in January and to wait for three more months was vexing and I wished I had Hermione’s time turner to speed things up. But I guess I was thankful for the wait because I got to save up for the books I needed and got to prepare my emotions and physicality for it. My peculiar family and I planned out so many things beforehand to prepare ourselves for the tiring but fun event. Before the event, I headed to Manila from Batangas and stayed at my sister’s apartment which was nearer at the transportation terminal in Bicutan. Unfortunately though, I slept at around 2am. I didn’t know why. I wasn’t exactly excited even if that were what’s supposed to be, but I didn’t feel anything. I guess it was from the exhaustion and someone who I was texting with in the middle of the night. I blame him for it. You know who you are. LOL!

Of course, she's joined by her wonderful husband and author of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and Hollow City, Ransom Riggs, as well as Veronica Rossi, author of the Under The Never Sky Trilogy.
