Top Ten Tuesday + 1 from 2019- Favorite Books of the last ten years (one book per year)


Welcome back! I am in a time crunch today but I still wanted to put this up. As always, Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana at  @thatartsyreadergirl. Every Tuesday, book bloggers gather and make a list of books based on a prompt. Today's topic is Top Ten Favorite Books of the last ten years, one book per year. I know that I discuss most of these books a lot, so I'll be brief with most of these. 

1- 2009 Catch Fire by Suzanne Collins

This is the second book in The Hunger Games Trilogy. The Hunger Games was my introduction to Dystopian  YA, and I am so thankful for this series. I enjoy both the book and the movie.

2- 2010 Mockingjay by Suzanne collins

The final book in The Hunger Games Trilogy also needed to make this list for the reasons I started above. I thought this book was the perfect way to end the series. 

3- 2011 The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

I loved this fantasy novel about a circus. This was a book that I read a few years after it came out.  I hadn't really read fantasy before this book, so in a way this was my introduction to the genre. I want to reread this book at some point before the authors new book comes out this year.

4-  2012 Eleanor & Park  by Rainbow Rowell

Are you surprised? I've only read three Rainbow Rowell books and this is my second favorite. I love this YA novel with  romance. I didn't like Eleanor's family all that much, and I was rooting for her.

5-  2013 Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

Rather than banging into the ground how much I love this book, I will just say that Cath is one of my favorite character, and I wish that she were real so we could be friends.

6-  2014 To All The boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han

I love both the book and the movie! This is such a cute YA story about a teen named Lara Jean who gets her letters sent out by her sister. This leads to her dating one of the boys Peter.

7-  2015 Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli  (Honorable mention- A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas)

I couldn't pick just one book for this. I loved Simon because I loved the story and I loved the characters. The other book is the first in a series that I loved.

8- 2016 A court Of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses # 2) by Sarah J. Maas

The second book in the A Court of Thorns  and Roses series. This was one of my favorite books in the series as we know more about the characters. I just love the inner circle so much.

9-  2017 The  Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

A Historical Fiction that I adore. This is about two siblings, Monty and Felicity, who are on a European Tour with Monty's friend Percy. Shenanigans ensue and they must find a way out. 

10-  2018 The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

I probably have another book that came out last year that I loved last year, but this came up pretty high on the Good Reads List I used. I loved this book when I read it earlier this year. I love Jude and I can't wait for November!

Honorable Mention- Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston

This was one of my favorite reads of last year as well! It's an Anastasia Retelling set in space, and it was so good. I loved both Ana and Di.

Bonus!

11- 2019 Romanov by Nadine Brandes

A bonus! My favorite read of 2019 has been Romanov. If you follow me on Good Reads, you saw my glowing review, and updates as I was reading this book. This is a Historical Fiction with a dash of fantasy so the author can tell a different story.

The Sunday Post!

Welcome back! Today I am taking part in the weekly memes  The Sunday Post hosted by caffeinatedbookreviewer and Stacking The Shelves hosted by .tyngasreviews . I have had a great time coming up with the updates for these posts in the last few weeks and so I will keep doing them. Life This week was crazy for me because I had a a work blog due. While I enjoyed doing the post, it was more research than I had allotted for, so I just needed to spend more time on the blog than normal. Other than that it was an easy week. I got some read in and I got a new chapter up for my fanfic. Yesterday, we spent a lot of time in the backyard and shoveling stone for the yard. Read I just finished China Rich Girlfriend earlier today! All For One Alex &Eliza #3 is still so much fun and I think it is my favorite book of the trilogy still. Currently, I am on page 184/391 I read some The Princess and the Fangirl and I am 50% done. Rather than pushing it for the next few days, I deci...

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.  ...

The Sunday Post!

Welcome back! Today I will link up to  The Sunday Post  hosted by  /caffeinatedbookreviewer  and Stacking the Shelves hosted by  tyngasreviews . Life This week was busier than usual because I ended up going to Peter Pan Jr rehearsals in the afternoon so I could  work with the music cues. The show opens this coming Friday, and this week is Tech Week, which is a four days where the cast will be able to work with lights, sound, mics, costumes, makeup, and basically run the show and get notes. The cast is 3rd-8th graders. I've been helping for years and I love it, although because I love Peter Pan, I have a soft spot for this show in particular. Other than that it was a relaxing week. Read I started Rich People Problems by  Kevin Kwan on Monday. I am 21% done, and I already love this book. I might not love it as much as I loved China Rich Girlfriend, but it's still early.  All For One was the plan to finish last week, but I still have ...
