Top Ten Tuesday is a meme of lists hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. I like planning out TBR or at least giving myself an idea of what I'm going to read so I can have the books fresh in my mind. So this is what I'm hoping to read this winter:
1. Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty: Adult fiction, small town mystery, murder.
2. The Bitter Kingdom by Rae Carson: I'm finally going to finish this trilogy and it's about time.
3. Burial Rites by Hannah Kent: Story of a woman facing the death penalty in Iceland.
4. The Cemetery Boys by Heather Brewer: New book by Heather Brewer. Enough said.
5. Exquisite Captive by Heather Demetrios: I read about a third of this book earlier this year and it's pretty good. It's time I got around to finishing it.
6. Fairest by Marissa Meyer: I will have this book as soon as it comes out and I will read it!
7. Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley: The story of a girl who finds herself in another world called Magonia and discovers that it's on the brink of war with Earth. Officially releases in April but I have an ARC so I will be definitely reading it soon!
8. Salt & Stone by Victoria Scott: Another new release that I will have my hands on as soon as it's published. The sequel to Fire & Flood and no, I'm not happy about the cover changes.
9. Sarah's Key by Tatiana De Rosnay: A historical fiction that takes places during WWII in Paris.
10. The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss: I've been wanting to read this fantasy series for a while now but have been putting off because I know it's going to be quite the undertaking. But since I want to read more book like this, that are super involved and complex, in 2015, I think The Name of the Wind is a good place to start.
I'm really excited about The Fairest! Magonia has an interesting cover, I will have to have look into it.
ReplyDeleteYes Fairest! I can't wait for it to be released!
DeleteOoh I loved Big Little Lies and hope you do too! I've been meaning to start Burial Rites, and I've heard good things about Exquisite Captive and The Name of the Wind. Happy winter reading!
ReplyDeleteMagonia sounds like a really really cool book! Adding it to my TBR

These all look great. I am really excited about Fairest and I think I have Exquisite Captive on my Kindle.
ReplyDeleteFairest is on my TBR and I want to see how Bitter Kingdom goes, I had a difficult time with Fire and Torns. I'm not happy about the cover changes for Victoria Scott's books either.
ReplyDeleteI love the Girl of Fire and Thorns! And the second book was amazing! Elisa and Hector make me swoon!
DeleteI am really dying to get my hands on Burial Rites -- it made my list as well! I have heard a lot of good things about it, and I think it would make for a great winter read. Check out my TTT!. Great list:)
ReplyDeleteI started The Cemetery Boys and it was flipping amazing! It had a great point of view and creepy elements, but I had to stop because I had other ARCs releasing soon. I need to get back to it ASAP.
ReplyDelete-Jon from Bookish Antics!
Yes, the Cemetery Boys! I can't wait to get started on it! Glad to hear that it has a great point of view and that it's very creepy! I might have to move it to sooner rather than later!
DeleteBurial Rites sounds amazing. The Name of the Wind and Fairest are both on my tbr list to get to eventually. I can't wait to hear your thoughts. Great list :)
ReplyDeleteMagonia by Maria Dahvana Headley looks amazing! The cover is breath taking! Just right down sounds like you could get lot in. Adding it to my TBR list.
ReplyDeleteThe Name of the Wind! I seriously need to get around to reading that. I am excited for Salt and Stone,
