Top Ten Books That Have Been On My TBR The Longest And I Still Haven't Read
- Otherwise known as my biggest fails.
- PS-- I really need to cull my Goodreads TBR. I don't want to read 80% of what I saved 6 years or so ago... these are the ones that I do:
1. The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers (#1) by Lynn Weingarten- I added the SO LONG AGO, but I recently became the BIGGEST fan of this author, so now I'm totally wanting to read it.
2. Faking 19 by Alyson Noel- I read and loved Saving Zoe, so Faking 19 seemed like a logical next book to read, but I never got to it (I even own it!!).
3. Freaky Green Eyes by Joyce Carol Oates- I'm a huge fan of Joyce Carol Oates's writing, she's one-of-a-kind.
4. The Locket by Stacey Jay- I don't know if this book is even in print anymore, but I think it sounds so ME.
5. Also Known As by Robin Benway- Unpopular Opinion: I don't like spy books. I KNOW. I don't even have a reason for not liking them except that I always say I'm going to read them, and then I never do. BUT, I really like Robin Benway's books, so I think this one will stay on the TBR.
6. Roomies by Sara Zarr & Tara Altebrando- I added this book before I knew how much I liked Tara Altebrando. Now I'm SUPER curious about it because she definitely has a unique spin on her stories.
7. Pieces of Us by Margie Gelbwasser- I've always liked this cover & still do.
8. The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen- Must. Read. More. Sarah. Dessen.
9. Jessica Darling's It List (#1) by Megan McCafferty- It's MG Jessica Darling (and I own the first 2 books).
10. Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally- I have not read ANY of this series and I really want to. I added Catching Jordan to my TBR in 2012, so maybe I'll start with it.
What books have you TBR'd the longest??
Oh I have enjoyed all of the Noel stand-along books. I still need to dive into her Fated series though! My Top Ten
ReplyDeleteOoh I just read Bad Girls with Perfect Faces by weingarten and LOVED it. It was awesome. I will definitely read more of her stuff!
ReplyDeleteYES!!!! Wasn't Bad Girls with Perfect Faces so good!!!???!?!? I was obsessed.
DeleteOLh my gosh the twist KILLED me. And that whole trip to Florida thing... but I thought Sasha was awesome, and tough, and stoo up to Ivy. Great book...
DeleteI need to get to Catching Jordan. I have read two from the series and liked both a lot. I need to go through my GR TBR and get rid of books too!
ReplyDeleteOMG looking through them I was like WHATTTTTT??? So many that need to go. And I'm glad to know you liked some of the books in that series. I've always been curious about them.
DeleteCatching Jordan! I haven't read this one or any in the series yet either though everyone seems to love the books. I need to check those out soon too!
ReplyDeleteI adored also known as. Not much spy as much as a friendship book. It’s good. Love robin benway. Also read catching Jordan which is cute and roomies I also liked
ReplyDeleteOhhh good to know it's not as SPY as I'm thinking it is!!! Thanks!
DeleteHi! I have yet to read anything from Miranda Kenneally! The Moon and More was not my favorite Sarah Dessen novel. But I'd like to reread it because I think I may have been the problem lol.

I have not read any of these, but I feel you on having a huge want to read on Goodreads. I've been trying to go through and take things off, but it's still quite long. LOL

I still have to read like, alllllll of Sarah Dessen's books except for That Summer (which I didn't really like). The Hundred Oaks series is fun! I think you'll enjoy those!
ReplyDeleteYES FOR MORE SARAH DESSEN. I didn't love Moon and More as much as I adore her older ones, but it was still a good read. And Catching Jordan was amazing! Such a cute story.
ReplyDeleteHere is my list
My longest TBR books are from three years ago, but I'm sure I have more from when I didn't have Goodreads!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2018/02/06/top-ten-tuesday-145/
I have books that I've been wanting to read for years. I fully intend to read them all...someday. Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteFreaky Green Eyes was actually really good. I read it forever ago, so I don't remember much about it except that I really liked it.
ReplyDeleteI am interested in Weingarten's backlist. She won me over with her last book, and I vow to read ANYTHING Benway writes. Don't care what it is. I am all caught up with Dessen. She is one of my faves. The Moon and More was fun and cute and what we expect from Dessen. I was little miffed about the ending, but I liked it. I love the Hundred Oak books, and Jordan was the first, so it's special to me.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I don't think I've heard of any of these, I'll have to check them out.
ReplyDeleteI have Also Known As on my bookshelf, but I think it's one of my newer-older-additions (if that makes sense). :D
