Top Ten Tuesday



This meme is hosted at The Broke and the Bookish. Links go to Goodreads. And this week, the topic is:

Top Ten Books I HAD to buy . . . but are still not read 

Falling Kingdoms (Falling Kingdoms, #1)

1. Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes - This looked SO good when I first saw it; I'm a high fantasy nut so of course I was going to buy it. But, um, it has been neglected.

The Crown of Embers (Fire and Thorns, #2)

2. The Crown Of Embers by Rae Carson - I loved The Girl Of Fire and Thorns, so I really wanted to pick this up, but for some reason I haven't continued on with this series yet.

Enchanted (Woodcutter Sisters #1)

3. Enchanted by Alethea Kontis - I love fairy tale retellings and the cover for this is gorgeous. It's probably the mixed reviews I've read that's put me off.

Insurgent (Divergent, #2)

4. Insurgent by Veronica Roth - I still haven't read this yet! I bought it last May. What is wrong with me?!

UnWholly (Unwind, #2)

5. Unwholly by Neal Shusterman - In truth, I am scared to read this since Unwind was so good.

Lola and the Boy Next Door

6. Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins - I remember starting this a long time ago, and then setting it aside for something else. That happens far too often these days.

Requiem (Delirium, #3)

7. Requiem by Lauren Oliver - Okay, so in all honesty I haven't had this THAT long, but I should have read it by now since I loved the first two so much. I'm just nervous because of how openly people say it ends.

Breathe (Breathe, #1)

8. Breathe by Sarah Crossan - I got this because it sounded kind of like Under The Never Sky, but again, it just never happened.

Sever (The Chemical Garden, #3)

9. Sever by Lauren DeStefano - Wow, I seriously have a lot of sequels to get to . . .

Need (Need, #1)

10. Need by Carrie Jones - Hmm. I really should start this series some day.
