- - - Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme, created at The Broke and The Bookish but now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl, where a new topic is given for a top ten book-related list - - -
This week's prompt is 'Spring 2020 TBR' (or Fall TBR for the southern hemisphere!) I don't often stick to a TBR list, it really depends on my mood. Since my class has been suspended this week and online for the rest of the term, of course I'm going to read hah. I will do my best to finish at least two books this season~
1, 2 + 3: The Grisha Trilogy
Nothing like a TV-series adaptation announcement to get my READ ME radar going!
I have a friend that has been pushing this series on me since my first year of nursing school. Well, mostly the Six of Crows trilogy, but she said I'd enjoy that one even more if I read this one first?? Tis' time I jumped on this fanwagon.
4 + 5: Station Eleven + The Silent Patient
I've heard good things about both!
Station Eleven has been on my TBR for years so I need to read it! I came to the horrible realization that I don't often read books by Canadian authors which I need to correct like yesterday. If you have any book recommendations by Canadian authors please leave some below! I love romance, thriller, mystery (anything but horror). On the other hand, I saw The Silent Patient on Book of the Month one day and thought "I need to know what happened".
6 + 7: The Bromance Book Club + The Bride Test
Did I mention I'm a sucker for romance?
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang was one of my top five books read in a previous year and of course I purchased book two the moment it hit my local book store. As a Vietnamese Canadian, I am loving the Viet-rep and humor. The Bromance Book Club was all over my IG feed and it sounded like my exact kind of rom-com hehe.
8: I Want to Eat Your Pancreas
So when a friend first mentioned this title to me, I thought 'zombie book'.
Then I saw the cover of the manga collection... it could not be any further from what I had imagined hahahah. A co-worker of mine also raved about this one and has been asking me if I've read it yet. I AM ON IT K. Based on the synopsis, I am sure to cry.
9 + 10: Always and Forever Lara Jean + Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
Sometimes I just crave cuteness.
Back in my tumblr days, I would see a number of lovely book edits of Ari x Dante that peaked my interest. The cover is beautiful too *heart eyes*. Bring on the cute please! Always and Forever Lara Jean is one of those books I've been meaning to read but hesitant to. Some friends have mentioned it wasn't their cup of tea in terms of plot but I've never been one to leave a series unfinished ahhh.
Recognize any of these books? Have you read any of them?
What is on your Spring/Fall TBR?
I really liked the Grisha Verse books (and yes, start with these). I liked The Kiss Quotient too. I got The Bride Test when it was on sale, but it hasn't won my TBR lottery yet.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed the Grisha Verse books! I'm hoping to complete at least book one before the TV show starts hehe. I hope you like The Bride Test when you do start it :D
DeleteSounds good... happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThank you~~
DeleteAlthough "Six of Crows" is hands down superior, I`ve really enjoyed The Grisha trilogy. There`s something so magical about Ravka. Also, Ari and Dante is one of my favourite contemporaries, hope you`ll like it.
ReplyDeleteCarmen`s Reading Corner
So far that seems to be the consensus among the readers/bloggers I follow (that Six of Crows >> Grisha). It makes me even more excited to get through the trilogy to hit the jackpot haha. I've only heard good things about Ari x Dante. Can't wait to start it :)
DeleteStation Eleven has been on my TBR for ages, too!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT .
Hopefully we both enjoy it when we come around to it xD
DeleteI had mixed feelings about The Bromance Book Club but The Bride Test was wonderful. Loved that one. I’m still chuckling over the title of I Want to Eat Your Pancreas. LOL
ReplyDeleteOoou I'm curious about your mixed feelings on TBBC bc maybe I'll also be like hmm. Glad to hear you loved TBT! Out of all of the books on my TBR that one is on the top :)
DeleteI really enjoyed Six of Crows, but I haven't read the Grisha trilogy yet! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteGood to know that I can just jump in to Six of Crows if Grisha doesn't end up being for me heheh. Thanks for stopping by <3
DeleteYou're going to LOVE The Bride Test and The Bromance Book Club. Both are good.
ReplyDeleteHurray! I can't wait to dive in. I've been on a mystery/crime binge and in need of fun romance.
DeleteStation Eleven is one of my all-time favorites! Hopefully you love it!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT!
Happy to hear you loved that one! Looking forward to reading it :)
DeleteAristotle & Dante is brilliant. I hope you love them all!
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Gahhh can't wait to dive in. Thank you~
DeleteThe Bromance Book Club sounds so fun! I keep thinking I want to try that one. :) Also the Mandel book, especially with a new one by her.
