Ten Book Titles that Get Songs Stuck in My Head

I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl for another Top Ten Tuesday.

Hey hey, I'm back! Last week I was on vacation, and the week before I chose to do a Quick Lit post rather than that week's Top Ten Tuesday. But now it's time for another Top Ten Tuesday, and this week it's a freebie! Once upon a time there was a TTT topic about books and songs that I couldn't come up with a list for, so I started keeping track of book titles that led to certain songs getting stuck in my head. Here you go!

Song: "Seasons of Love" from Rent
