Top Ten Tuesday – Top Ten Books On My Summer TBR list
Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week is posted a new Top Ten list idea that all bloggers are welcome to discuss.
Picking the top ten books I want to read this summer turned out to be more difficult than I expected! I already know I want July to be YA Contemporary Month, but summer is more than a month long (fortunately!) and there are so many books I want to get to! I did manage to find some books I really am looking forward to reading – but knowing how flaky I can be with my reading, this might really well change along with the weather! What I do know, is that I want my reading to be great; if I’m not into a book, I’m dropping it for the next!
Here we go!
1 – We Were Liars by E. Lockhart – 2 – The Universe Versus Alex Woods by Gavin Extence – 3 – To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before by Jenny Han – 4 – Everything Leads to You by Nina Lacour – 5 – What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick
6 – Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira – 7 – The Storied Life of A. J. Firky by Gabrielle Zevin – 8 – The Ocean at the End of the Lake by Neil Gaiman – 9 – Instructions for a Heatwave by Maggie O’Farrell – 10 – Burial Rites by Hannah Kent
What will you be reading this summer?
I’ve been meaning to read some Neil Gaiman since forever, and The Ocean At The End of the Lane has one of the most gorgeous covers I’ve seen. LOVE. I’d want to read all the other books on your list as well ahh THIS SUMMER WE ARE SPOILED FOR CHOICE. Happy reading =)
I recommend Burial Rites. Suspenseful!
Here’s my Summer TBR list!
I’ve quit making lists like that because I never stick to them but I really want to read We Were Liars as well.
I adored both WE WERE LIARS and THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE. Great choices!
Nice list, Kay! I’ll be watching for your thoughts on Contemporary YA July! I’m reading Jenny Han’s book now and it’s very cute. I adored Everything Leads to You, Love Letters and A.J. Fikry and can’t wait to hear what you think.
Good idea to DNF if you’re not feeling a book…there are too many other good books to read!
Happy summer reading!
Ooooo I love the covers for Universe Versus Alex Woods and Storied Life.
OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE is one that’s been on my radar for forever but still haven’t gotten around to. Hope you like it!
TO ALL THE BOYS I LOVED BEFORE is sweet. I really enjoyed that one, and can’t wait to see what Han’s next book will be like!
