Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. This week's topic is a mother's day freebie (bit late for us in the UK haha!). I actually really struggled with this one! My mum's not a big reader, but I'm going to list the very few books that she has read or attempted to read in the past few years.
She really loves Guy Martin and motorbikes and she actually finished this book! (Guy Martin races in the Isle of Man TT)
Same as above... but I'm not sure she's finished this one...
So, my mum loves Valentino Rossi more than Guy Martin (she even has a tattoo of his racing symbol...). She's actually currently reading this one just now too.
Feel free to leave a comment.
My mom would never read HP... :)
ReplyDeleteMy mum only wanted to because I'm so into it, but I don't think she will ever actually read them all.
DeleteIt is cool that your mom attempted to read these books, even if she didn't finish them! My mom's not a big reader either, I don't think she'd really care for Harry Potter, haha, but that's okay :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, she does try occasionally. I think I'm having more luck converting my sister-in-law into a reader though.
DeleteI've been trying to get my mom to read HP for years and years!

I don't think it's ever going to happen with my mum now.
DeleteEek, I'm so glad my mother is a reader! She never has enough time, but at least we have a love of books in common!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT.
You are so lucky to have a reader as a mum! Mine just isn't really interested.
DeleteMy mom isn't much of a reader, although I think she wants to be. I think she doesn't really have the time and patience for it. But sometimes I will recommend books to her, and they usually have a Downton Abbey vibe, since she liked that show so much!
ReplyDeleteI actually think my mum's the same - she just doesn't have the patience either. I don't think I'd recommend books to my mum though.
DeleteI love that you got your mom involved in this week's TTT, even if she doesn't read much :p I am sure she loved to be included!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT.
Haha! She doesn't actually know she was included in this weeks theme.
DeleteOh, I like this! I should've done one where me - as a mom - would try to recommend a book to my kids. Lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks! That is such a cute idea for a post too!
DeleteWhat did your mom think of Harry Potter?
ReplyDeleteMy mom loved it when I recommended it to her many years ago. :)
Here is my TTT.
My mum never actually finished it so I'm not too sure really.
DeleteMy mum's not a big reader either! I think she stopped at the third Harry Potter book.....

She made it further than my mum anyway so that's great!
DeleteI wish my mom was still here to get involved :-( She passed away a few years back. I hope she enjoyed it! My TTT :-)
ReplyDeleteAww! I'm so sorry for your loss.
DeleteCouldn't make it through HP?!

I know, but it's not really her thing at all.
