DISCUSS AMONGST YOUR SHELVES: Book Titles as Band Names (Top Ten Topic)

I was watching YouTube the other day, and a channel I subscribe to shared this great topic from TOP TEN TUESDAY called BOOK TITLES AS BAND NAMES! Her video is below:

I used to do TOP 5 WEDNESDAY, but it’s been quite a while! I really liked this topic because it included music and I had to give it a try! It’s hard for me to participate in discussions when they are linked to a set day given my current schedule, but I still wanted to create a list. With that in mind, I give you DISCUSS AMONGST YOUR SHELVES! What a great way to talk about those books just hanging out on the shelves, waiting for someone to talk about them! Now I can get involved, but on my own time! The original post is featured on That Artsy Reader Girl who now hosts each week of TOP TEN TUESDAY.

Using book titles on my shelf, I formed bands based on various genres of music along with the style of music that I envisioned. The songs chosen are in no way a reflection of the book, but rather my interpretation of what the band would sound like if they were really making music. Enjoy! If you are interested in more information about any of the books, just click on the image.
