Okay, so I cheated and gave you 10 physical TBR books and a bonus ebook, because more books is always better, right? I mean, I kinda had to, as that "bonus" book is my most highly anticipated book of Spring, and it's sitting pretty in my phone waiting for me to read it as we "speak"... Hot damn, I can't tell you how tempting it is to disregard everything else I'm supposed to be doing right now, and just dive into Dreams of Gods and Monsters...
So here are my Top Ten Books on my Spring 2014 TBR! Check it out, let me know what you think, and then tell me some of yours in the comments!
From the top (except DoGaM, which is on the top of the pile figuratively, if not literally)
- Dreams of Gods and Monsters | Laini Taylor
Why: Because. Laini. Taylor. - The Summer Invitation | Charlotte Silver
Why: Nostalgic feel, has summer in the title. Might be wishfulness on my part, but SUMMMMMER. - Titan Magic: Body & Soul | Jodi Lamm
Why: Lurved Titan Magic (book 1) something fierce. - One Man Guy | Michael Barakiva
Why: It sounds so cute and romanciful! Sometimes my shriveled little heart craves that. - Stolen Songbird | Danielle L. Jensen
Why: TROLLS, Y'ALL. - Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy | Karen Foxlee
Why: It's a retelling of the Snow Queen, which I almost typed "Snot Queen," which is not a story I want to read, ever. Nobody write that. - The Kiss of Deception | Mary E. Pearson
Why: I mean... the real question is, why not? This book sounds AWESOME. - The Truth About Alice | Jennifer Mathieu
Why: This topic pushes a button for me, and I think I'm going to be very engaged. - My Last Kiss | Bethany Neal
Why: I love after-death thrillers like this, plus Bethany is a Michigander! - This One Summer | Mariko & Jillian Tamaki
Why: Jillian Tamaki's art. - Love Letters to the Dead | Ava Dellaira
Why: Comparisons to The Perks of Being a Wallflower are enough to sell me.
Of course, there are many, many more books on my TBR, and new ones are always being added. But these are the books that I'm most excited to read, and will read the soonest.
Any of these calling your name, or in your Spring TBR pile?

I really hope you get to Ophelia, possibly my favorite read so far this year!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read Ophelia soon.
ReplyDeleteHa! I should put the second Laini Taylor on my list so I can move directly onto the third one when it releases!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read My Last Kiss too. I have an ARC and plan to read it soon.
ReplyDeleteI am going to try Laini Taylor again this year. I didn't love her my first-go round and think I was in a bad reading mood! I considered adding STOLEN SONGBIRD, but I didn't want to add any FTF titles. Ooh, can I read about teh Snot Queen? AWESOME ;) THE KISS OF DECEPTION...oh, Misty, YES. It blew up my brain this weekend. I CAN'T EVEN!!! I have MY LAST KISS and LOVE LETTERS to read as well...LOVE LETTERS made it onto my list! <3
ReplyDeleteGreat picks! I am dying to read quite a few of these and have serious book envy right now! I am especially desperate to read Love Letters to the Dead, The Kiss of Deception and Stolen Songbird. I hope you find the time to get to them all :) My TTT.
