Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish. This week’s topic is Top Ten Books on My Summer TBR List.
There are a lot of books that SHOULD be in my summer top ten. Big stacks of professional development books. Big stacks of books on digital literacy to prepare for a new course I’m teaching in the fall. Big stacks of Newbery winners for the Nerdbery Challenge (I’m 0 for 12 on that challenge right now, which means I’m going to be reading a lot more Newbery winners than I want to read over the next six months to complete my 2014 goal). Big stacks of #MustReadin2014 titles.
But not a single one of those books is on this Top Ten list.
Instead, I decided to focus my list on the top ten books I most want to buy right now. Do I need to buy more books? No, not strictly speaking. Is that the point? Definitely not.

Absolutely Almost is SUCH a wonderful book. I hope everyone reads it over the summer. I really need to get brown girl dreaming. It looks wonderful.
I totally caved and ordered Absolutely Almost yesterday. Can’t wait to read more Lisa Graff!
