Books With a Creepy House | TTT | Top Ten Tuesday | 10/15/24

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. Please check out her website for more TTT topics!

This week’s topic is: Books I Was Assigned to Read in School

Books With Creepy House
