Ten Books I’ve Added To My To-Be-Read List Lately

I haven’t participated in a Top Ten Tuesday in quite some time. However, this topic is one I always love. So, here’s what I’ve added to the TBR recently!

  1. The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee: This is the one of the two on this list I don’t have access to and I CANNOT WAIT for it to come out! I love the time period, the premise, the friendship/love line, everything! So eagerly anticipating this one.
  2. Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor: Okay, this one isn’t new to my TBR. I’ve been desperate for a new Laini Taylor book since Dreams of Gods & Monsters. However, ARCs are now actually a thing so reading it is more of a reality. This is the other one that I don’t have access to… yet!
  3. The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas: I’ve been hearing so much about this one on twitter. It was inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement and sounds like an incredibly timely and powerful story.
  4. Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley:  I devoured Graffiti Moon last summer and have been dying for more Cath Crowley. When I saw this one on Edelweiss I was so excited. Can’t wait to dive in!
  5. Hunted by Meagan Spooner: I love These Broken Stars which is co-written by Meagan Spooner. This one is a Beauty and the Beast retelling where Beauty is a huntress. Yes, please!
  6. Undefeated: Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team by Steve Sheinkin: I absolutely love Steve Sheinkin’s nonfiction. I have a surface knowledge of Jim Thorpe and know a bit more about the Carlisle Indian School, and the terrible persecution of Native Americans under the guise of education. I am so interested in learning more.
  7. Caraval by Stephanie Garber: I’ve been wanting to read this one for awhile and just got access via NetGalley. I’ve heard such great things! I was lucky enough to meet Stephanie Garber at BEA this year and she was so kind. As if I hadn’t already wanted to read her book enough 🙂
  8. Fish Girl by Donna Jo Napoli and David Wiesner: One of my favorite authors teaming up with one of my favorite illustrators? Heck yes, this is a graphic novel I cannot wait to dive in to!
  9. Goodbye Days by Jeff Zentner: The Serpent King is one of my favorite reads of this year. I cannot wait to see what Jeff Zentner has in store for us next!
  10. History is All You Left Me by Adam Silvera: Confession time – I just read More Happy Than Not last month. I know! I’m a slacker. But I totally fell in love with it and cannot wait to start History is All You Left Me.

What else should I have on my list? Backlist, upcoming, fiction, nonfiction, graphic novel, manga… whatever!!
