Top Five Tuesday- Books I predict will be Five Star reads!

Hello! This is a meme I have seen a few bloggers do and it looks like so much fun! I will posting these when I find that the discussion fits something I can talk about. The meme is hosted by Shanah at Bionicbookworm. Covers come from Goodreads.

Today, we are on the topic of books we predict will be a  five star read.

1- To Kill A Kingdom  by Alexandra Christo

 34499221
You all know me and know how much I love a retelling. The Little Mermaid is one of my favorite movies and I love Ariel so much. I have heard about this book from others, and I really feel like  this book will be my jam. I  have a copy of this and will probably read it over the summer, as I feel this will be the perfect novel for summer!

2- Sea Witch by Sarah Henning

 36502054
A retelling from Ursula's point of view? Sign me up! I read the first five chapters of this book for the First Look hosted by Epic Reads a few months back. From the first chapter it swept me into the world and these characters. I have the Ebook of this, and I plan on reading both this and To Kill A Kingdom  at the same time this summer. Back when I read the first few chapters I loved Evie and her friends and I can't wait to read this.

3-  Romanov by Nadine Brandes
40590407

Can we take a moment to appreciate the cover of this book? I love it so much!!!! Anyway, you all know me and Anastasia so  this is not news to anyone who reads my blog. This is such a unique take on Anastasia and her story. I can't wait see where this story goes. I have seen little buzz from bloggers, but I think the buzz will come closer to when the book is released next month.
This book is on a pre order  so  my package will get here on May 7th.

4-  The Bear and the Nightingale (Winternight Trilogy # 1) by Katherine Arden

 25489134

I am not a reader of paranormal books but something about this novel says this could be a book I enjoy. The fact that this story is set in Russia and other bloggers have enjoyed this I feel it may take me into the world, and I am so ready to swept up into the book.  The book seems like a fantasy so that is why it is on my list as well.  Over the next few months, I will grab this book and I want to read it in December or Late November because of the Winter Vibes.

5- Lilac Girls (Lilac Girls #1) by Martha Hall Kelly

25893693

This is a historical fiction inspired by a real woman who lived during World War 2. I love the fact that the women in this book are in three different countries and have three different occupations. This book floating around the Book Blogging community and gaining high praise. I can't wait to get a copy of this and then read the second one about Caroline's mother!

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
