Top Ten Tuesdays!

Hello! Top Ten Tuesdays are hosted by thatartsyreadergirl. Today's topic is Books I Meant to Read in 2018. I will add a link to the Goodreads for the books. I pick these books from going through the first 10 pages of my 16 page Goodreads TBR

1- Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7896527-throne-of-glass?ac=1&from_search=true

Last year was the year that I got into the A Court of Thorns and Roses series. I would love to get to these books in 2019. I love Sarah J. Maas and I love her worlds she creates.

2- Bygone Badass Broads- 52 Forgotten Women Who Changed the World by Mackenzi Lee

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35888416-bygone-badass-broads

I have read Lee's  The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue and the sequel. I own this book, and I will save it for a challenge prompt in 2019. I can't wait to read this.

3-  Catwoman- Soul Stealer by Sarah J. Maas

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29749098-catwoman

Going hand in hand with Throne of Glass, I should have read this book last year. It is on the TBR for 2019 once I get a copy! I love Selina Kyle, and I can't wait to see what Sarah J. Maas does.

4- A Date with Mr. Darcy (Bookish Boyfriends #1)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35888335-a-date-with-darcy

This book is right up my alley and I don't know why I have not read the book yet. The plot seems so fun and from the Goodreads summary; the character seems relatable.

5- Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33275690-foolish-hearts

I am not sure why a theater kid like me has not read this book yet. I so much want to read this book because a plot point is A Mid Summer Night's Dream. In 2019 I will find and read this novel!!!

6- The Hazelwood (The Hazelwood #1) by Melissa Albert

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34275232-the-hazel-wood

I don't know why I have not read this book yet. I like the plot and I think that I would like this novel. I know the second book comes out soon, so I want to read this before that comes out.

7- Life Is Like a Musical: How Broadway Can Help You Live Your Best Life by Tim Federle 

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34220087-life-is-like-a-musical

I met Tim at a signing at Broadwaycon a few years ago, but I have read none of the books he has written. This book seems like so much fun and I can't wait to read this book in 2019.

8- Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy: The Story of Little Women and Why It Still Matters by Annie Boyd Rioux

 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40584180-meg-jo-beth-amy

 I love Little Women so much and I can't believe that I have not read this book yet. This book seems like so much fun and a break from the fictional worlds that I read a lot of. 

 9- My Plain Jane (The Janies # 2) by  Cynthia Hand  Jodi Meadows  Brodi Ashton 

 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36301023-my-plain-jane

 I love Jane Eyre and I would love to read this book in 2019. I have not read the first one, but I think I might read the second one first. 

 10- The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux 

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2769150-the-phantom-of-the-opera

I wanted to put on a classic on this list. The Phantom of the Opera is four on the list of my Top Five favorite musicals. I have wanted to read the source material for years, but I have never gotten around to it. In 2019, I will get a copy of this book and read it.

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
