It’s another Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl!
Today’s topic is a FREEBIE! This concept has been sitting in my drafts for a while, and I’ve added to it along the way. I’m talking here about bespectacled book boyfriends! I know this is a superficial way to categorize a hero, but it’s just so darn fun to recognize glasses as a little everyday accessory that add a bit of intelligence to any face (I say this as I wear them myself 😉 ). So, welcome to my new fan club.
The Bespectacled Book Boyfriends Club








Tom Finchley from A Modest Independence by Mimi Matthews
Titus from Jane By the Book by Pepper Basham
Nate from Veiled in Smoke by Jocelyn Green

From my TBR
I have been told these are wonderful heroes, who also happen to be bespectacled

Have you “met” any of these book boyfriends? Do you have any bespectacled characters I need to add to my list? What did you feature for this week’s TTT?

I’ve read quite a few of these and had forgotten some of the heroes were bespectacled! What a fun choice for this week. And these books feature some great men regardless of whether or not they wear glasses.
Aw, as someone who wears glasses, I appreciate this post! Also, I have Love At First at home, I need to read it.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.. Thank you!
Haha, I haven’t heard of any of these! Glasses are a huge turn on for me, so I love this.

Love this, so much fun! I loved Titus!! I am showcasing series that I want to complete on my blog today: https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2022/04/top-ten-tuesday-book-series-i-would.html
What a fun theme for a list. I love it! My husband got Lasik a number of years ago, but he was, once upon a time, very much bespectacled 🙂 I’ve read VEILED IN SMOKE, although I don’t remember the hero having glasses (my memory is no beuno). I do remember the hero from THE LADY IN RESIDENCE, though, and he’s adorable!
Happy TTT!
