Top Ten Books On My Fall 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 post about their top ten books on their fall TBR list. The titles  are in no particular order.


1. The Bronze Key by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare is the third installment of The Magisterium series. I cannot wait to see what Call, Tamara and Aaron dives into during this novel.


2. The Midnight Star by Marie Lu is the last book in The Young Elites trilogy. This thrilling conclusion will definitely be worth the wait to one of my favorite series. Is it October yet?


3. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling and illustrated by Jim Kay is going to be fantastic! Mr. Kay's wonderful illustrations captures the true essence of Harry Potter. I cannot wait to add this to my collection!


4. Witch's Pyre by Josephine Angelini is the final installment in the Worldwalker series. Angelini left readers hanging in Firewalker and everyone is dying to get their hands on Witch's Pyre to find out what happens next. I hope it lives up to the hype!


5. Going Geek by Charlotte Huang is Huang's sophomore book. I enjoyed reading For the Record and cannot wait to read this cute contemporary with an East Coast boarding school setting!


6. Vicarious by Paula Stokes is a bit of adventure, a bit of sci-fi and a bit of a mystery. Many genres are rolled into one in this thrilling novel. This has been always on my TBR for awhile and I hope to be able to read it soon.


7. Even if the Sky Falls by Mia Garcia is a coming-of-age story about a girl who is desperate for change. She travels to New Orleans with her youth group to rebuild houses not knowing she will find romance. This contemporary definitely sounds like something I would enjoy.


8. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them: The Original Screenplay by J.K. Rowling is the perfect companion to the film, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". As a huge Harry Potter fan, I definitely need this book to read and for my collection. Also, how stunning is the cover art?


9. Something in Between by Melissa de la Cruz is an important book about coming-of-age and immigration. How to you reach your dreams when there is something preventing you from succeeding? Miss de la Cruz will be in Boston in October for the Boston Book Festival! I cannot wait to meet her!


10. Nutshell by by Ian McEwan is a story narrated by a baby in the womb. This novel is about deceit and and murder. This is a very interesting take on a thriller and will be a perfect fall read.




What books are you excited to read this fall? Do we share any of the same books on the fall TBR list?

  1. I've seen Marie Lu's upcoming novel on a few lists this week, and it's making me remember that I've yet to read any of her books. Though I do have Legend on my shelf so at some point I should read that one. :)

    1. I couldn't get into Legend but I absolutely love The Young Elites series. I hope you like Legend more than I did.

  2. I ordered the illustrated edition of THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS just 2 days ago and can't wait to get my hands on a copy, the first book was already AMAZING with all the great illustrations. I re-read the first 3 HP books just last year but I don't think I can resist reading CoS AGAIN once it's on my shelves :D

    I still haven't read FANTASTIC BEASTS and I'm not sure if I want to and if it would be worth it, I guess I will need to watch the movie first to see what it's about :D

    1. I cannot wait to read CoS. Jim Kay does a fantastic job with all of the illustrations. I probably will watch Fantastic Beasts first in theaters before reading the screenplay. The trailer to Fantastic Beasts is pretty amazing and I am looking forward to the film. I hope you enjoy the film at least :D.

    1. I hope you have a chance to attend the Boston Book Festival. It's in an awesome area and most of the events are at the library or in neighboring churches.

  7. Nutshell sounds super weird, but something I could definitely get on board with hahah. Though I am not a huge fan of thriller. I've also been wanting to read Vicarious, but my library doesn't have a copy of it yet, sadly.
