Welcome to my Top Ten Tuesday Post for October 8th.
The category this week was a lot of fun to come up with. I focused on my favorite literary females and what character traits I admire about them.

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.
