Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl.
Today I get to share with you my ten favourite tropes. These gems help spice up any story.
1. Fairytale Retellings: I love these so much. I even write them and enjoy that beyond words.
2. Band of Misfits - When the chaos breaks out this ragtag group will do their best to fix things. Even if they don't really want to.
3. Magical Training - Yes, please.
4. Quest - Whether to save the world or for other purposes, this trope is a good friend of mine.
5. Prophecies - I love them, more so when they go haywire or come true in disastrous ways.
6. Time Travel - Whether to distant lands or five minutes ago. I'm here for this!
7. Dark Stories - I want my pain and angst. Don't at me!!
8. The Found Family: Not all relations are bound by blood.
9. The Not-Chosen One- I love it when something happens to the person who was supposed to save the world or do an important task and another individual far from qualified has to do it.
10. Vampires and all those paranormal goodies - Mine!!
That was my top ten for this week. Any special tropes you hold close to your heart? See you tomorrow for Waiting on Wednesday. Thanks for stopping by.
I like your number nine. That's such a funny twist.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite probably is the hero's journey.
I love your entire list. All of these tropes are wonderful to read about.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
Fun list!
ReplyDeleteAll of your picks are fantastic! Literally EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. I'm 100% here for them. Also, I need more paranormal stories I want some good vampire happenings. It's been so long and there needs to be a big time revival in vampire books.
