Top Ten Tuesday Spring TBR part 1 April


 


Hi! Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday. Each week, Jana @thatartsyreadergirl posts a prompt, and we all make a list based on that prompt, a similar prompt, or pick a topic of our own for the list. This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. This week, we’re doing a spring cleaning freebie, and because I want to read over 10 books this spring, I decided to do this post this week, and talk about books I want to read in May and June before the summer next week. I’ll put them in sections because that’s easier to navigate.

 

April

Pre Orders (Physical)

1- Rule of Wolves by Leigh Bardugo (King of Scars # 2)

 

This is my first of four pre-orders I plan on starting when they get here. I’m so looking forward to this book after enjoying King of Scars last month. I’m also sad because this is the last book in the Grisha Verse.

2- Fearless (Fearless # 1) by Mandy Gonzalez

I pre-ordered this book because it looked like a fun book. I enjoy Middle Grade, and I think I’ll enjoy this mystery. All I needed to hear was theatre ghost, and that the kids wanted their show to go up, and I was sold. Mandy Gonzalez is a Broadway star and I love her work on the In the Heights Cast recording. Early reviews rate this book 3-4 stars and say that it is perfect for any fan of theatre. This makes me thrilled. 

3- The Chance to Fly by Ali Stroker and Stacy Davidowitz

This is another Middle-Grade theatre story by another Broadway Actress. I’ve enjoyed her for years and I’m so hyped for her book. Early reviews say this is 3-5 stars, and I am so excited to read this.

4- Kate in Waiting by Becky Albertalli

You all know I love Becky Albertalli. I am so excited to read this story which also happens to be about theatre.

Reread

5- Love & War (Alex & Eliza #2) by Melissa de la Cruz

I’m rereading this trilogy and Hamilton and Peggy for a ranking post of all the Hamilton Historical Fiction I’ve read.

 

Ebooks

6- The Hate you Give by Angie Thomas

 

Yes, I will finally read THUG next month!!! I’m so hyped to read it.

7- Pride by Ibo Zobi

A P&P retelling?! I’m so hyped. The reviews of this are really positive and I’m very excited to read it. I read the first five chapters when it came out, and I loved it so much.

8- In the Neighborhood of True by Susan Kaplan Carlton

 

This is Historical Fiction to mix in with the hard-hitting contemporaries I have for next month. I’ve been anticipating this book for years, and I’m so hyped to read it. I’m half Jewish, and I love seeing Jewish rep in books. I think I will love this novel.  

9- That Way Madness Lies (out 3/15)

I put this here, but I might put another novel here if I finish this. This is a YA Contemporary Shakespeare anthology, and it has my name all over it. My hype for this is so real.

      I know right?! It's another theatre story, or theatre seems to be a part of it, and that makes me so happy.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

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.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
