Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish where we make lists of bookish things!
It's Christmas Eve! My family does our big celebration on Christmas Eve. We get together with my mom's side of the family. We make homemade pierogis every year because we are Polish. My Grandma is Catholic and she insists on fish every year for dinner. Gross. So I just eat pierogis for dinner. Best. Ever.
Anyway, Santa is probably getting his sleigh all packed up for tonight and I hope that the following books are on that sleigh with my name on them!
Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead: Yeah, I know. I still haven't read this. But at least I'm asking for it, right?
Graceling Realm series by Kristin Cashore: So I got the first one from my Secret Santa, yay! But I still need the second two! I love fantasy and am dying to read this series! How have I not started this series yet???
Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo: Another I should have read right now. I have the first one, but need the second one and if Santa wanted to bring me Ruin and Rising early, I probably wouldn't mind. ;)
Mara Dyer Series by Michelle Hodkin: Another series I've heard amazing things about and need to read.
The Covenant series by Jennifer L. Armentrout: Uh, I heard there's hot boys in her books... does that put me on the naughty list?
The Lux series by Jennifer L. Armentrout: More hot boys. Sorry, Santa.
This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales: This book wasn't very high up on my priorities, but then Jamie posted this post about publicists favorite books of 2013 and it was on almost every single one of their lists. I must be missing out on something and now I need this book.
Tandem by Anna Jarzab: Parallel universes? Yes, please. I need to read this one!
Frozen by Melissa de la Cruz and Michael Johnston: I had this book from the library, but then moved before I could read it. *sniff* Plus it's called Frozen so that means it's a good winter read, right?
Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein: My amazing friend Meghan got me Code Name Verity for Christmas. I haven't read it yet, but I'm anticipating loving it so I need the companion novel. WWII era historical fiction. *sigh* My favorite era in history to read about.
And yes, I totally cheated by putting series instead of individual books. But who can seriously only pick ten books for their Christmas wishlist??? I can't. This is a very condensed version. You should see the list that I sent my family. They were so thrilled (translation: overwhelmed).
What's on your Christmas wishlist? Have you bought yourself any presents this year? I do every year because I'm bad! I mean....I'm good. I'm definitely on the nice list, Santa!
Ah, yes, This Song Will Save Your Life is fabulous! I was so excited to see it on so many of the publicists' lists. I hope you read it soon and enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI know! That's why I was all...um...apparently I need this book. I hope that Santa brings it to me!
DeleteHoly crap, you've got some good reading ahead of you!!! VAMPIRE ACADEMY!! LUX!! COVENANT!! --- these are hardcore series THAT I'M OBSESSED WITH! I can't wait for you to meet Dimitri, Aiden, Seth, and freaking DAEMON BLACK! Geeze, girl.... 2014 is going to be one HOT year for reading. ;)
ReplyDeletehahaha I hope so. I knew you would be excited by my list. I'm going to have some great book bangin' material next year. :)
DeleteThe Vampire Academy, Mara Dyer Series, and Covenant series aren't on my list but have been on my TBR for a while now. Must check that out.
ReplyDeleteThe Lux series is something I do LOVE! Daemon is one of my favorite heroes. I can't wait for the next book! I hope you get to read that. I'd definitely recommend it.
I've heard that Daemon is pretty freaking swoony. Can't wait to meet him! Hopefully Santa brings me a bunch of sexy book boyfriends all tied up with a shiny red bow. ;)
DeleteI love the Mara Dyer series! There's a totally smoking hot guy in it too! I've read Vampire Academy, and would really LOVE to read This Song Will Save Your Life. Great list!
ReplyDeleteOoooh this is the first I'm hearing about the smoking hot guy... now I'm even more interested!
DeleteI'm so excited you're going to read the Lux series and the Covenant series, I can't wait to hear what you think! And Mara Dyer series...messes with your head. In a good way. And Vampire Academy, the first book didn't wow me, to be honest, but I fell in love with the series. And I actually really liked Frozen and Tandem. So many great books to read!!! Merry Christmas! ~Pam
ReplyDeleteI know!! I'm so excited!! Lots of swoony boys in my future I hear. :) Merry Christmas to you too!
