Today we’re joining in on the fun of Top Ten Tuesday with our Top Ten Favorite Books We Read Before We Were Bloggers. This was a really difficult topic for us because we both love to read so much, it was touch trying to narrow it down to just ten books. Ultimately, we decided to give you favorites that we not only read over and over again, but told everyone we knew (even back then) to read them too:
Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery
We loved Anne and Gilbert and Diana and Matthew and Marilla and pretty much everything about these books. We even talked about how much we love Anne and Diana’s friendship on another Top Ten Post. And don’t even get us started on our love for Gilbert Blythe. *swoon*

Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
This was one of both of our favorite reads in high school, and we can’t believe everyone hasn’t read this.

Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
We love Great Gatsby. What more can we say about that?
Oh. If you haven’t read (We’re totally judging you for that, btw) you can check out the Crash Course from John Green here and here. It’s fun.

Harry Potter by JK Rowling
We both loved Harry Potter and read the entire series more than a couple of times.

Jane Austen
We had a hard time narrowing down our favorite Austen book. After much deliberation, we realize that we love the story of Sense and Sensibility but we can never give up our epic love for Mr. Darcy.
Looks like we’re going with both. ♥
Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder
We think this series needs no introduction. We both loved all of the books.

Maeve Binchy
As a teenager, Kass read and loved several of Maeve Binchy’s books. They’re all amazing, but here are three of our favorites.

The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne
This is Kassiah’s favorite book read in high school. Love.

The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
This children’s classic remains one of our favorites, and we hope everyone read it.

Honorable Mention:
Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer
The series that brought us together. Maybe this one should be our favorite.
