Top Ten Books I've Added To My To-Be-Read List Lately
- Most of these happen to be 2017 releases because I just went on a giant "what are the books of 2017?" search.
1. One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus- I know a lot of books try to say they're like The Breakfast Club, but this one sounds like it actually is.... with murder.
2. Little Monsters by Kara Thomas- I really liked The Darkest Corners, so I'm interested in what else Kara Thomas will do.
3. Once and for All by Sarah Dessen- NEW SARAH DESSEN YESSSSS! (oh yeah, now I should probably get caught up on her last 2 books!!)
4. This is How it Happened by Paula Stokes- I haven't read ANYTHING by Paula Stokes yet, but all her books sound so good! And I kind of love the "I can't remember" trope.
5. In Case You Missed It by Sarah Darer Littman- Here's one that comes out this week. I love reading about problems that arise from "digital footprints". I think it's super interesting to read about teens dealing with problems that I never had to deal with.
6. The Possible by Tara Altebrando- I was 50/50 on The Leaving, but I liked it enough to want to read more. I think this author has good ideas, and I'm interested to see where else she'll go. I think this one has to do with a cult (which I LOVE reading about) and MAYBE supernatural abilities (which I also love trying to figure out).
7. It Wasn't Always Like This by Joy Preble- This is another supernatural Cult book!!
8. I See London, I See France by Sarah Mlynowski- Ummmm, one of my fave authors of ever is writing a YA next year?? Sign me up!! Plus, TRAVEL!!
9. The Summer that Melted Everything by Tiffany McDaniel- I saw a review of this on someone's blog and I was totally intrigued. It's about the devil and is set in the 80's... and I don't know how I had never heard of it!
10. Die for You by Amy Fellner Dominy- This is another book that comes out this week. I think it's one of those relationship gone bad books, and I'm always down to read about the dark side of love.
What books have you discovered recently??
I have seen Little Monsters and This Is How It Happened around a lot today and I need to add them to my TBR now!! Great list!!
ReplyDeleteI have This Is How it Happened on my TBR too! I was also a bit meh on The Leaving, but I will definitely be checking out Altenbrando's new book! Great list! :-D
ReplyDeleteI See London, I see France looks interesting! It seems like I am always adding books to my ever growing reading wishlist after reading TTT threads like this week's TTT post.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT post for the week:

Happy reading!
I'm intrigued about This Is How It Happened! I hope you enjoy these books when you get around to reading them. :-)
ReplyDeleteI think the I See London, I See France cover looks so cute. I haven't heard of these before. I have a book by Paula Stokes, but I haven't read it yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog
I See London, I See France sound like a fun book to read. Never heard of it before. Love your list!
ReplyDeleteI must read Little Monsters - I'm sad it doesn't come out until next summer. I absolutely loved The Darkest Corners.
ReplyDeleteThe Summer That Melted Everything, is also on my TBR list! I've heard really good things about it, excited to read it!! :)
ReplyDeleteI looked up several of these because I'd never heard of them before--awesome list this week! Looks like you have a huge mixed bag of topics and subjects here, which is great to see.
ReplyDeleteHappy book-ing to you in the near future! Hopefully you enjoy all your recent bookish acquisitions (by which I mean, the books in your leaning tower of read-za!) Here's my Top Ten Tuesday, if you're interested; no worries if you're not though! Happy Tuesday. <3
I'm like way behind on what's coming in 2017, I mean I know of a few but haven't really been looking, so this weeks topic has helped a lot. lol I like that so many Paula Stokes books are coming out, I just read her Vicarious. And Die For You looks good. Yes to Mlynowski.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read The Darkest Corner yet, but it did make my list! Once And For All, also made my list. I LOVE Sarah Dessen and I can't wait to get my hands on a copy! Great Top Ten! :D My Top Ten Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of IT WASN'T ALWAYS LIKE THIS before but now THAT'S added on my Goodreads. I'm super excited for Sarah Dessen's new book because I feel like it's a little bit different for her and it sounds super duper fun. Otherwise pretty much all of these have already been marked to-read on my Goodreads. (:

I'm really excited about Sarah Dessen's new book...because Sarah Dessen! This is How it Happened and Die for You sound so good!
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of I see London, I see France :) I really like covers with doodles and sketches on them! And Once and for all! You can't go wrong with Sarah Dessen! :) Thank you for visiting my blog :)
ReplyDeleteUma@Books.Bags.Burgers.
Once and For All sounds SO GOOD!! I have so many of her older books to catch up on too. :) Great list!
ReplyDeleteHi! OMG, how did I not know there was new Sarah Dessen? I feel like I've failed in life. :) Thanks for your list!
ReplyDeleteLeslie
The Summer That Melted Everything was impressive - I hope you enjoy it. :)
ReplyDeleteLauren @ Always Me
I'd really like to read The Possible. I'm not familiar with the others, but they look great!
