T10T: Books I’ve DNFed in 2018

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually to list 10 bookish worlds you would (or would not) want to live in, but that was a theme not too long ago and my answers haven’t changed much from the last one. Instead of tweaking the theme this week a little bit, I decided to tweak it a lot and give you guys an update on the books I’ve DNFed (Did...

T10T: Highest Rated TBR Titles

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually Books I Disliked But I’m Glad I Read, but I wanted to talk about ten books I feel pressured to read – by Goodreads ratings! I’d been wanting to do a post like this for a while, so I thought this would be a good opportunity. I sorted my Goodreads TBR shelf by highest ratings, and then ignored anything unreleased or anything...

T10T: Favorite Covers of 2018

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually Books With My Favorite Color on the Cover, but I have three favorite colors (kelly green, purple, and black), so I opted to do this instead! NOTE: I had to stick to 2018 covers, because if I branched out into 2019, this list was gonna be 15-20 instead of 10… From least favorite to favorite… 10. Emergency Contact — Mary H.K. Choi Released: March...

T10T: Books I’d Cuddle a Nazgûl to Get Early

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually Books I’d Slay a Lion to Get Early, but I don’t want to kill anything, and besides, cuddling a Nazgûl sounds hella scary. Anyways, here are 10 upcoming releases I’m super excited for, in order of release dates! NOTE: These definitely aren’t ALL of my most anticipated upcoming releases — just the ones that I don’t have ARCs of! 1. Bright We Burn —...

T10T: Frequently Used Cover Designs in YA

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually to pick “Frequently Used Words In [Insert Genre/Age Group] Titles”, but, well… you guys surely know by now how much I love changing things up a bit, so I decided to go with frequently used cover designs! NOTE: For the record, I’m not making fun of these books or their covers (I happen to like a lot of them!), nor am I calling them...

T10T: Anthology Authors I Want(ed) More From

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually a freebie week! I’ve been considering doing a discussion post about authors I first read through anthologies and wanted more work from, so I thought that would be the perfect topic for this freebie week! (review here) Robots vs. Fairies contributors: 1. Seanan McGuire Seanan wrote the introductory story for RVF: a genuinely magical story of a robotic theme park, with a twist....

T10T: Books I Am Scared to Reread

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually Books I Loved But Will Never Reread, but I thought I’d take it up a notch by listing ten books that I am actually afraid to reread, whether due to fear of problematic content, or just a worry that the writing won’t have stood the test of time and it will taint my precious memories. 1. The Twilight Saga — Stephenie Meyer This one is...

T10T: Characters Who Improved Their Books – Big Time!

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually to list 10 likable characters from disliked books, but if I genuinely disliked a book, chances are, I disliked the characters within it, as I’m a very character-driven reader. My friend Julie had the great idea to change this theme to list 10 characters who truly helped me enjoy their books! 1. Nikolai Lantsov This sweet royal bean is, by far and wide, my...

T10T: Own-Voice Books for Under-Represented Cultures

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly blog meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt was actually to choose 10 books that take place in other countries, but you guys know how I like switching things up! I decided to make this a mixture of cultural rep based on religion, ethnicity, heritage, and so on. As always, click the titles for Goodreads links. 🙂 Disclaimer: I haven’t read all of these books, on top of the fact that I’m...
