Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl. I love Top Ten Tuesday — I love seeing the unique answers every week, and I especially love the excuse to look at pretty cover art every Tuesday! This week’s topic is ONE WORD REVIEWS FOR THE LAST 10 BOOKS I READ. I can’t wait to see what everyone else comes up with for this week! Without any further ado, let’s jump in.
The title of each book links back to my full review.
- HOUSE OF EARTH AND BLOOD: Entertaining
- OF BEAST AND BURDEN: Underdeveloped
- ALWAYS BE MY DUCHESS: Meh
- GALLANT: Short
- THE STARDUST THIEF: Epic
- WOLF GONE WILD: Mediocre
- IT HAPPENED ONE SUMMER: Fun
- JUNIPER & THORN: Dark
- WE ALL FALL DOWN: Absorbing
- OUR LADY OF MYSTERIOUS AILMENTS: Confusing
Do you agree with any of my one-word reviews? Link your TTT below so I can check it out!
BIRDIE'S BOOK NOOK 
Reading Of Beast and Burden now, and I can definitely already see some underdeveloped parts!

Great post, loving this week’s topic. Totally agree with hoeab and your review for Juniper and Thorn has me even more intrigued

It’s a beautifully told story, but I didn’t mesh with the vibes personally! It’s extremely dark.

I agree with Gallant being short LOL, accurate! I didn’t like The Wolf & The Woodsman so I’m debating if I’ll give Juniper & Thorn a try or not…

Yeah, with how I felt at the end of Juniper & Thorn, I’ll probably be skipping Wolf and the Woodsman!

I’ve seen a few people do Gallant this week and it’s amazing how different everyone’s word has been! It is definitely short though, no arguing there.

It’s a very divisive book, I think!

So it seems! I have to admit, I have been wading through it fairly slowly, though I think that’s more just how busy I am than anything else.
