Top Ten Tuesday is an weekly meme created by the awesome people at The Broke and Bookish, who love lists as much as I do.
Top Ten Tuesday REWIND (pick a past topic that we’ve done that you missed or just want round 2 of!)
This week I’m going to do Books I had to buy… but are still sitting on my shelf.
1. Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood
I don’t even remember what this one is about, but I picked it up because of the pretty cover
2. Cleopatra by Stacy Schiff
I picked this up after I read Nefertiti by Michelle Moran.
3. Bad Girls Don’t Die by Kate Alender
I bought this after I saw a couple reviews for it. I plan on reading this one this month. Seriously.
4. Paper Towns by John Green
I know! I know! I should read it!
5. If I stay/Where She Went by Gayle Forman
Again, I know! I don’t know what’s wrong with me!
6. Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares
I picked this up for the last readathon but didn’t get to it. It’s on my stack for the October readathon.
7. Amy and Roger’s Epic Detour by Morgan Matson
Another one that I should have read a long time ago.
8. Coraline by Neil Gaiman
I actually purchased this book twice I wanted to read it so bad.
9. The Confession by John Grisham (not pictured)
I’ve read all his other books, and most of them fairly soon after release, but not this one.
10. See Jane Date by Melissa Senate (not pictured)
I’ve wanted to read this ever since I saw the made for TV movie. I found the ebook real cheap a while ago but still haven’t picked it up.
I’m currently reading Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares and loving it. If I Stay and Where She Went were both amazing- I hope you have the chance to read them soon.
I want to read it but I don’t know if I’ll get to it soon or save it for later. Everyone loves If I Stay/Where She Went but I just haven’t gotten to them yet.
READ PAPER TOWNS… and only ten???? hahahaha, i buy WAY more books than I actually read…
I only picked 10, but I have more!
Kim, we have similar lists. So many books on your list that I bought that I need to read soon. I have to read Paper Towns too. OMG there just isn’t enough hours in the day to read.
I know! Life keeps getting in the way of my reading ;)
I loved If I stay and where she went and would love to own them someday!
I know, I really need to read them!
I have too many of these books. It’s just a shame, but one day we’ll read them all! Right?
My TTT
Right! That’s the spirit!
Pretty good if you only have ten, as I’m afraid to count the number of books I just HAD to have, but haven’t yet read! If nothing else, we’ll be well-prepared in case there’s ever a worldwide book shortage, right? ;)
I do have more than ten, on my ereader alone I have a scary amount of unread books. Like I don’t even want to know how many. Like you I’m totally prepared for a world wide book shortage (what a scary thought!)
You must read Paper Towns! If I Stay & Where She Went are great reads, and Amy & Roger was my favourite read of 2011, so I hope you can get to it soon and enjoy it!
My TTT
I want to get to them all soon, I just wish I had more time!
The Cleopatra novel would be on my list, too. It sounds fascinating but somehow I just never seem to get around to reading it.
I find Cleopatra (and anything Egyptian around that time period) completely fascinating, but sadly it’s just one of those books that got pushed aside.
Totaaallly agree with Born Wicked! That one has long been collecting dust on my shelf as well! It was so freakin’ pretty and I needed it so bad, lol ;)
My Stacking the Shelves
I know! I pretty much just bought that one for the pretty cover lol.
Again: YAY FOR DASH AND LILY!!!
Also, I loved the If I Stay books but I think I actually liked Where She Went slightly better. They are both so similar and yet so very different! I hope you get to read them soon so I can hear what you think.
I plan on reading them soon… I guess lol. I’m a little short on time and there is so much that I want to read!
