Top Ten Tuesdays - Books I Never get rid of

Welcome back! Top Ten Tuesday is one of my favorite memes , so I enjoy doing this every week. Our host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl. The topic of books you've read that you don't own but want to add them to your library was submitted by  Annemieke @ A Dance with Books, I don't get a ton of arcs yet, I'm trying to build up my brand as a blogger. My NetGalley rating is really low. Some of that is due to that fact I don't know how to read them, I think I need the app. Anyway, this is books and series I will never get rid of because I love them too much. 

1- Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell 

Please tell you were expecting this book. I love this story way too much to part with the novel. If I got rid of this, I would have withdraw I'm sure, so I just need to keep this book forever. 

2- A Court Of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas

This series was my first fantasy that I truly loved. I passed on fantasy for years because I didn't think it was for me. I didn't I could get into a big fantasy world or enjoy the writing. This was a series that I devoured  last year when A Court of Frost and Starlight came out.  These characters are gems and I adore them so much. If I parted with these, I would be sad. 

3- The Folk of Air Series (all three) by Holly Black

I'm aware that this series has a third book coming out this year. This is another fantasy series I flew through this year. I love Jude and her world, I don't love Taryn, but I have not read the novella yet I need to find a copy. I'm never departing with this series even though I might have three different versions of the books. 

4- Heart of Iron duology by Ashley Poston 

My other Ashley Poston books are Ebooks these two are my only hard covers I have by her. This is a Sci-Fi Anastasia retelling in a way. The first book was one of my favorite reads last year, and I am loving the second one right now. This duology turned me onto Sci-Fi and I've since read a few more. These books will always be my favorite Sci-Fi books. 

5- After Anatevka by Alexandra Silber 

I talk about this Historical Fiction a ton on my blog. This book is both nostalgic and new at the same time and I love it for that. I love Hodel and the other characters in this novel.  The story is fantastic and the characters are so well crafted. If I got rid of this, I would lose one of my favorite books and Historical Fiction's. 

6- The Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan 


 Listen, I read these as an adult in fact I read them like two years ago or maybe last year.  I love a good mythology and this is fantastic for teach kids, or even adults mythology. I need to reread The Lost Hero and get the rest of that series because I miss this world. The characters are quirky and the story is is a lot of fun. 

7- Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee

I read this the year it came out and to this day I talk about it. This is much needed for a reread before the end of the year because I loved it so much. Not many people have read this I find, or if they have, they don't talk about it all that much. I had a connection with Tash which made me love this novel even more. I would never get rid of one of my favorite contemporary's. 

8- Jane Austen Seven Novels by Jane Austen

I have a thick book of Jane Austen novels. I would never get rid of it because Jane Austen is one of my favorite authors. 

9- All I Know Now by Carrie Hope Fletcher 

Carrie Hope Fletcher is a favorite author of mine and this was the first book I read from her. This is memoir and advice book. I would like to keep this book because I would like to reread it when I need the advice. Also, the cover is purple and very cute. 

10- The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue and The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy. I will add the novella to this as well. 

The three main characters  and their friends are gems and I love them all so much. This Historical Fiction is action packed and I was so along for the ride. The European tour aspect in the first book drew me in and I knew that I was along for where this book would take me. The second book was a pirate adventure for a section and wow I was here for it.

  1. You can read NetGalley books through the Kindle app or on a Kindle, if you have one. :) It goes through your Amazon account.

    I like your twist on the prompt! I've got a copy of TGGtVaV with a signed bookplate, and I love it. I don't have The Lady's Guide, though, but I'll need to remedy that soon! I love The Folk of Air series, too! So looking forward to the third book.

  3. OOoh nice picks! I love the ACOTAR trilogy too! And the Folk of the Air trilogy! Cannot wait for Queen of Nothing! And oh dear me, I've ordered 3 copies of the books and I'm ordering all the book boxes of it too because of the later release editions of the first two books to match! It's a deadly obsession being a reader! Lol!

    Thanks for visiting my TTT post!

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
