Top 10 Tuesday: Favorite Bookish OTPs
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Welcome to this week’s Top 10 Tuesday: Favorite Bookish OTPs! We’re told that love is in the air this week. While I hate Valentine’s Day, I do adore a good love story. I like flowers on a Tuesday for no reason whatsoever, a kiss without strings attached, and an unconditional ‘I love you’. I’ll take the other 364 days of the year filled with those instead of an overcommercialized reminder that I buy my own flowers, my lips haven’t been kissed in longer than anyone needs to know, and yet somehow I still believe in unconditional love like a kid on Christmas Eve.

Anne and Gilbert (Anne of the Green Gables) and Laurie and Jo (Little Women) are my favorite of all time! They also happen to be the only two couples that I seriously love, LOL.
My TTT.

Fun!! I haven’t read either yet (what have I been doing with my life? I need to read them!) but I did watch Little Women and liked it so I really should pick them up!
J R Lynn
The movie was great but the book might be tedious because it’s full of description and stuff.. but I hope you enjoy it!
Ashley
Good to know! Thanks!

So many good ships! I’m OBSESSED with Percy and Monty! Also, I’m very curious about Once Ghosted, Twice Shy! I think I’m gonna pick it up!
Ashley
Yes, so obsessed!!! I adored that they showed up in Lady’s Guide too!! 💗 Oooh if you pick up Once Ghosted I hope you enjoy!! (It can be read as a stand-alone novella but reading A Princess in Theory will help introduce Likotsi if you want to get a fuller picture!
