I love creating to-read lists. I do have a terrible habit of choosing the exact books I won’t end up reading over the next couple of months, and yep, I need to fix this! Despite all this, I still enjoy sorting through all the books I’d like to read and figuring out which ones match my current moods. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme run by The Broke and the Bookish, and the topic this week is to share our Spring TBR (to-be-read) lists.
The first books I’m including on my list are three new releases set to be released over the next couple of months. (For convenience I’m classing Spring releases as March, April and May.) I absolutely love the sound of The Star-Touched Queen and Heir to the Sky, and I need A Court of Mist and Fury in my life, like, yesterday!
In an effort to prevent my house from turning into a safe haven for unread books, I keep trying to chip away at the books that seem to have been hanging around for quite a while. So, naturally, I’ve chosen five books I bought within the last couple of months and completely overlooked all the books that I’ve owned for years. I’m putting it down to mood logic. That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it!
Eon: Rise of the Dragoneye by Alison Goodman // The Queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen // Finnikin of the Rock by Melina Marchetta // Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare // Six of Crows by Leigh Bargugo
Technically, I don’t own the last two books on my list just yet. I bought them on Amazon the other day, so they should show up at some stage this week. They are Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton and The Dark Days Club by Alison Goodman. I’ve seen quite a bit of praise for both books, so hopefully I’ll really like them. They're two of my most anticipated releases of 2016, so I have everything possible crossed that I will like them, anyway!
What books are you planning on reading this Spring?
Thanks for stopping by, and Happy Reading!
I can't wait to read A Court of Mist And Fury! I also love the cover to Rebel Sands. Great picks, Alma and thank you for stopping by. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jess! The cover for Rebel of the Sands is so gorgeous. It showed up in the post this morning, and it's BEAUTIFUL in person :)
DeleteNice! I still need to read The Queen of the Tearling and Six of Crows! Also cannot wait to read ACOMAF!! And ooh Rebel of the Sands! Reading that now and loving it!! Great picks!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
YAY, I'm so glad you like Rebel of the Sands! My copy just showed up this morning, so hopefully I'll get around to reading it soon :D Thanks for stopping by, Jessica!
DeleteI'm the same way! I very rarely ever follow my TBR lists, and I hope that you are able to follow this one! Also, I LOVE you blog design! :)
ReplyDeleteOMG! I thought ACOMAF came out later this year! That is definitely on the TOP of my TBR and I plan to read it the day it comes out! I hope you get to all of these :D
ReplyDeleteHere are my Top Ten!
Ooh I hope you enjoy Rebel of the Sands and Six of Crows! THEY ARE BOTH ASTOUNDINGLY WONDERFUL! I honestly am horrible at creating to-read lists. XD I just try to work through my TBR semi consistently...like mixing it up between ARCs and library books and my own bought books...hehe. But I never really plan too far ahead?! I think I'm more of a mood reader than I thought. :O
ReplyDeleteALSO I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE STAR TOUCHED QUEEN! *shrieks*
A Court of Mist and Fury has definitely been on a lot of peoples lists this week! I am so excited for it! Sarah J. Mass has gotten better and better with each book.
ReplyDeleteRebel of the Sands sounds really good also! I have that on my TBR list as well.
The Queen of the Tearling is pretty interesting, it's a lot like The girl of fire and thorns by Rae Carson but it's still entertaining to read. I keep meaning to get to book 2 in the series but I need a refresher of book 1 now because it's quite hazy.

Ooh, these look good! :) I almost put HEIR TO THE SKY on my list, too! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
These titles are amazing! I've heard AMAZING things about THE STAR TOUCHED QUEEN!! Everyone is loving her poetic prose and the Indian mythology. I hope you enjoy your Spring reading!
ReplyDeleteI really LOVED Eon so that is what I AM recommending for you! And I have heard a lot of hype for the Star Touched Queen, and I'm hoping it's as good as the hype. Same for Rebel of the Sands! I also had no idea Heir of the Sky was by Amanda Sun. I haven't read her Paper Gods series, but I've heard of them, so that says something, right? :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome list Alma!
