This week's original topic is Top Ten Books I Really Want To Read But Don't Own Yet. Since I use the library more often than I purchase books I decided to mix this week's topic up just a little bit. I had a lot of fun with it, but I did cheat a little. I ended up mentioning 14 books instead of 10. Tell me what you think of my list below and share your Top Ten Tuesday with me as well!
Boomerang is one I've heard a lot about so I think I might have to add it to my list, I've read the first in The testing series and I thought it was good, flawed at time but good. (I'd also completely forgotten about reading them so thank you, I'll have to make a note to finish the series haha)
ReplyDeleteI have The Rain on backlog for review for netgalley ( I know, I'm terrible.) I really like the idea behind it so here's hoping it's good.
Have yet to read Crown at Midnight but need Heir of Fire, with grabby hands and everything :P. Same can be said for The Retribution of Mara Dyer, I can't believe we've had to wait 2 years for it.
Hope you have some luck getting the books :P
My TTT :)
Crown of Midnight** lol
DeleteI enjoyed The Testing a lot simply because of how clever the main character is, but yes it does have some flaws. I'm glad I helped remind you. (I'm always forgetting about series I am reading.)
DeleteThe Rain just sounds so interesting! I am looking forward to your review.
We have been waiting FOREVER for the new Mara Dyer book. I keep getting nervous that it will be pushed bag again. And I am like counting down the minutes until I can get Heir of Fire. :)
Blood of Olympus is on my list too! I really hope Leo lives!
ReplyDeleteThey all better live...or else!
DeleteI can't wait for Heir of Fire!!! Great list. I use my library a lot too, but if I love a book, I have to go buy it!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same. An example, Throne of Glass. I originally got it from the library but after I read it I had to buy it!
DeleteI loved Dragonfly in Amber so I hope you buy it soon!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Top 10 post
-Kimberly @ Turning the Pages

I 100% support you reading it, especially if you like an unreliable narrator!!! :D
DeleteYup, you need to get your hands on Heir of Fire as soon as you possibly can. I recently read Boomerang and thought it was really great, it was a really fun read. I am really excited to read The Rain, it looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI know! I just have one more week until I can read Heir of Fire. One more week. That is good to hear about Boomerang. I'm really hoping The Rain is good, because it sounds good.
DeleteI love the way this list is organised and some of these look really cool. Throne Of Glass is on my list, I have yet to start that series!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT!
Katrina @ Chased By My Imagination
I advise you to start Throne of Glass as soon as possible. lol
DeleteI have pre-ordered The Retribution of Mara Dyer! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteWe have waited long enough I say!
DeleteI really want to read Of Metal and Wishes! I'll have to get around to that. Great picks! I hope you enjoy all of these when you get to read them!
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to Of Metal and Wishes simple because I loved the authors other series Guards of the Shadowlands! :)
DeleteMara! I need that book like now!
ReplyDeleteSAME! Too bad we still have to wait until Nov.
DeleteI have some of these books on my list as well! And many of the books on your list I want but just did not make the list. There are just so many good books it's too difficult to only pick 10!
ReplyDeleteIt was really hard to only do ten this week. I want to own All the books and read All the books!
DeleteThe Testing series is one that I want to start. I've read Boomerang and it was pretty good. Great list!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I say give The Testing a try. The mc is really clever.
DeleteYayyyy for Of Metal and Wishes. My friends have all loved it to no end. Also, Boomerang was cliché, but the authors' humor and quirky touches gave it more unique spin. I hope you enjoy those as well as A Little Something Different that's been getting all the fluff and praise reviews and alsoooo The Rethribution of course I need that book nooow! One of the best lists I've seen for yesterday's topic :) Thank you for visiting, lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting back! I'm glad to hear that Of Metal and Wishes is getting a lot of good reviews, and that Boomerang still had some quirks to outweigh the cliche. :D
DeleteMara Dyer & Diana Gabaldon YAY :)
ReplyDeleteIf Mara Dyer gets pushed back again.........
DeleteLooks like we will be having lots of conversations soon. I can't wait for you to read Boomerang, Graduation Day, Of Metal and WIshes, and HoF OBS. I really want to read A Little Something Different but am in the same dilemma, not sure if I should take the plunge and buy it or get it from the library. I can't believe we are finally getting The Retribution of Mara Dyer it feels like its been an eternity...
ReplyDeleteI love our conversations so I am down with that. :) And yes...it has been a freaking eternity.
DeleteGreat list! I particularly want to read Boomerang and A Little Something Different but it's a matter of tracking down whether my library has them.
ReplyDeleteIt is always frustrating when my huge library doesn't have one book I really want. :/ I hope yours has them!
