Top Ten Books On My Spring TBR List


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's Top Ten Tuesday asks bloggers to list their top ten books on our spring TBR list. The following books are in no particular order.

1. P.S. I Still Love You by Jenny Han is probably one of my top books I must get my hands on for spring. I absolutely loved To All the Boys I've Loved Before and I cannot wait to read the second book in this amazing contemporary duology. If you plan to attend BEA or are in the New York City area on May 26, 2015, definitely stop by Powerhouse Dumbo for Han's PSISLY release party!


2. Renegade by Kerry Wilkinson is the second book in the Silver Blackthorn series. I read Reckoning last year and enjoyed it. It's probably one of my favorite dystopian books I've read. I cannot wait to see what Wilkinson has in store for his readers.


3. Half Wild by Sally Green is the second book in the Half Bad Trilogy. If you are interested in paranormal fantasy involving witches, give this series a try. Bonus points for the series taking place in England.


4. The Heir by Kiera Cass is the fourth book in The Selection series. We heard about America's story about the Selection. Now, we get to hear from Eadlyn while she tells her story about the Selection. The book takes place 20 years after The One. Also, how stunning is this cover art? Check here to see if Kiera Cass will be visiting a city near you.


5. The Girl at Midnight by Melissa Grey is a debut urban fantasy novel. Echo is a clever pickpocketer who uncovers a secret race of magical people with feathers as hair. I am definitely intrigued by the synopsis of the book. Grey will be at the Boston Teen Author Festival come this Fall in Cambridge, MA. I am excited to read the novel and to meet Grey.


6. Simon vs. The Homo Sapien Agenda by Becky Albertalli is a debut novel about a not-so-openly gay 16-year-old male named Simon Spier. An e-mail falls into the wrong hands and now Simon is being blackmailed. Albertalli will join Melissa Grey at the Boston Teen Author Festival as well. I am also super excited to read this novel and to meet Albertalli.


7. Becoming Jinn by Lori Goldstein is a debut novel about genies. It is the first novel in the Becoming Jinn series. Goldstein will be present at the Newbury Literary Festival with authors such as Avi and Heather Demetrios. She will also be having her release party at Porter Square Books in Cambridge, MA. Both events will occur in April.


8. Black Dove, White Raven by Elizabeth Wein is a historical novel about a girl named Emilia and a boy named Teo in the 1930's. Teo's mother dies in a plane crash and Emilia's mother raises Teo. However, Emilia and her mother are White and Teo is Black. Emilia's mother tries to find a country in order to raise both children where Teo won't be discriminated because of his skin color. The synopsis sounds wonderful and I cannot wait to dive into this book.


9. The Bane Chronicles by Sarah Rees Brennan, Cassandra Clare and Maureen Johnson is a compilation of Magnus Bane novellas. This bind up has been sitting next to by bed since its release. I cannot procrastinate any more and should read it soon. Let's see if I will read about the adventures of Magnus Bane by the end of June.


10. I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios is definitely on my TBR list for the spring. Everyone has been raving about this contemporary book. I own this book and I want to read it by the end of April. Demetrios will make an appearance at the Newburyport Literary Festival and I would love to meet her.
