So my mom & grandmother had been bugging me to make a list (yes at almost 28 I am still asked for lists) So I made them and emailed them. I got the same response from both of them "Um Lexi, isn't there something other than books, that you want?" I seriously didn't know how to answer that. To me, the answer would have been an emphatic "NO" but I know exactly how they get and how much they like to surprise me. So I put a few non book related things on there.
There have been a lot of books that have caught my eye over the past 8 months or whatever. Even more so than normal and I can thank my fellow bibliophiles for that.So these ten books are a compilation of books that either look amazing, or bloggers have raved about it or if it's just something that I must have in my hands RIGHT NOW!
All Our Yesterdays by Cristin Terrill
-The premise drew me in big time and this one has been taunting me from my Amazon wishlist for weeks-
Splintered (Splintered #1) by A.G. Howard
-Amazing cover. Plus the synopsis. Plus an amazing author who regularly interacts with her readers on social media-
Not A Drop To Drink by Mindy McGinnis
-I haven't heard a whole lot about this one, but what I have heard, is all positive stuff-
The Distance Between Us by Kasie West
-Kasie West is a goddess and I'll read whatever she writes-
The Selection (The Selection #1) by Kiera Cass
-I absolutely love the cover and that's what's drawn me in the most, although I have to say, the premise looks great-
This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales
-I've heard so much about this book. Like how it was life changing. I need this book in my life-
Where The Stars Still Shine by Trish Doller
-If I had to pick only one of these to be sitting under my tree, it would be this one. Hands down-
Charm & Strange by Stephanie Kuehn
-I've heard nothing but amazing things from this one. The premise sounds amazing-
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
-My grandmother read this one and LOVED it. It's normally not a book she'd love so I'm excited-
The Fault In Our Stars by John Green
-This book just sounds like something I'd be all over. I am really excited about this one-
I am sure a lot of you have already read most of these. Or maybe you haven't gotten around to it yet. Anyhow, let me know if you've read any of these and what you think about them. Leave me the links to your TTT posts so I can come by and see what's on your list.
The Selection, TFIOS, and This Song Will Save Your Life are all great! I have yet to read All Our Yesterdays, too, but I've heard it's really good from a lot of people. :)
ReplyDeleteI am DYING to read Kiera Cass' Selection series. TFIOS will probably make me cry buckets.This Song Will Save Your Life comes highly recommended to me so I knew I needed to fit it in there. I missed out on getting an ARC for All Our Yesterdays awhile back so I really want this book now.
DeleteGreat List! I'm currently reading TFIOS and am liking it a lot. I really want All Our Yesterdays.

I am so excited to start reading The Selection series. It really looks SO good!

We have a lot in common in our lists. I just recently read All Our Yesterdays, and it was phenomenal. I was totally engrossed in reading it, and I recommend it to all YA readers. The Fault In Our Stars is also on my to-be-read list. Happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT list: http://booksavvyblog.blogspot.com/
It sounds like everyone wants All Our Yesterdays! I really hope that I get it. I feel like everyone BUT me has read TFIOS.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
I loved All Our Yesterdays! SO good! I'm about to start The Selection and The Elite over my Christmas break. And The Distance Between Us. So many good books! I hope you get them all! Thanks for visiting my TTT, and Merry Christmas!

I was SO tempted to keep the copies of The Elite & The Distance Between Us instead of sending them to you.
DeleteThanks for dropping by & Merry Christmas!
Great list! I liked WHERE THE STARS STILL SHINE and GONE GIRL, and I loved THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US and THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. I still need ALL OUR YESTERDAYS, NOT A DROP TO DRINK, THIS SONG WILL YOUR SAVE YOUR LIFE, and CHARM & STRANGE! Hope you get some!
ReplyDeleteI did get Splintered. Since my bday is in a few days (the 29th) I'm hoping for some gift cards so I can go book shopping. Hope you get to read This Song Will Save Your Life and all the others SOON!
DeleteOh so many awesome books on your list! I loved All Our Yesterdays! And Not a Drop to Drink was really good too, IMO. I also loved Where The Stars Still Shine! The Selection was pretty good, and I cannot wait to read The Distance Between Us. I keep requesting it from the e-library but never get a chance to read it!

DeleteGreat list! I've read and loved quite a few of these - TFIOS, The Selection, This Song Will Save Your Life. Quite a few are ones that I still need to read. Not A Drop To Drink made my list too. I hope you got a least some of these :)
ReplyDeleteYou've got some amazing books on this list! I hope you got some of them for Christmas :-)
