Top Ten Tuesday – Book Titles Featuring Ordinal Numbers
This week’s theme from That Artsy Reader Girl is dedicated to the numbers that define an item’s place in the series. I thought I’d also do a neat and orderly list from first to tenth.

Nilüfer Yanya @ 170 Russell
First time concert is always a gamble, but seeing this British singer-songwriter live made me an even bigger fan.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds @ Alexandra Gardens
Missing out on Australian Open tennis finals was worth it for a double dose of Nick Cave in glorious full band mode.

I skipped the beach and went to the Classic Cinemas for a South Korean double from auteur director Park Chan-wook.
