Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish where people share their top ten things according to the topic of that week.
I can't think of ten books that all fit in one genre so I decided to do two genres with five books each. These books are ones that I have really enjoyed and couldn't put down when I was reading them :) Some really surprised me. So here they are in no particular order!
FANTASY:
1. Graceling (Graceling Realm series) by Kristin Cashore
2. Grave Mercy (His Fair Assassin trilogy) by Robin LaFevers
3. Poison Study (Study series) by Maria V. Snyder
4. The Assassin's Curse (The Assassin's Curse duology) by Cassandra Rose Clarke
5. Stolen Songbird (The Malediction trilogy) by Danielle L. Jensen
NEW ADULT:
5. The Hazards of Skinny Dipping (Hazards series) by Alyssa Rose Ivy
What books would you recommend from any genre?
I love your fantasy list! I've been wanting to read Grave Mercy but somehow keep forgetting about it when I go book shopping =/

Thanks! I picked up Grave Mercy last year cause it was on sale at my local bookstore. I devoured it and loved it! I hope you get a chance to get it soon :)
DeleteWhat a fabulous question! I love seeing some of my most favorite reads and authors listed! Some of these I still need to read. ;)
ReplyDeleteHave you read any of the ones I listed and did you enjoy them? :)
DeleteYES! Poison Study!! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE that series! Soooooo very excited for the new Study trilogy next year!
ReplyDeleteStill have to read Stolen Songbird but it's in my TBR mountain!
Here's my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
I'm super excited to see Yelena and Valek again!!
DeleteI hope you enjoy Stolen Songbird! I'm really looking forward to Hidden Huntress ;)
I've got Grave Mercy in my TBR pile. Haven't read it yet!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT is here.
I hope you read it soon! I really loved it :)
DeleteI've read all of your fantasy books and loved every one. Of the five, I think I love Grave Mercy the most. I'm dying to get my hands on the third book in the series. Great list.
ReplyDeleteMe too, I can't wait for the third one! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteNice combination of genres! I am seeing this Left Drowning book on all kinds of lists today, it must be a good one. I'll have to check it out. Great list!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Definitely go check it out :)
DeleteYou put Stolen Songbird on your list!!!! I was literally about to do that one instead of Cruel Beauty, because it's somewhat of a Beauty and the Beast retelling!! Love your list! I would also think about adding Throne of Glass to the fantasy category and Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover to the new adult! Phenomenal books if you haven't read them!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Throne of Glass was actually the first book on my mind but it's been getting a lot of attention so I thought I'd go with something else :) I'm a little scared to read a Colleen Hoover book because I've heard they can be quite intense and emotional. Though, I've been seeing a lot of great reviews on Ugly Love so I think I just might check it out :)
DeleteI will be checking out some of these New Adult titles :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll enjoy them and thanks for visiting!
DeleteLOVE Grave Mercy but still need to get to Graceling. I love new adult and Something Like Normal is one of my favs. great list :)
ReplyDeleteJanhvi @ The Readdicts
Thank you! I hope you let me know your thoughts on Graceling after you've picked it up :)
DeleteGrave Mercy was just amazing, and I really liked Stolen Songbird. And I The Assassin's Curse is pretty high on my TBR, so I'm glad you liked it. :) Awesome list, and thanks for stopping by my TTT earlier. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for coming by too :) I hope you read The Assassin's Curse soon! We can discuss!!
DeleteOoo, I loved GRACELING and GRAVE MERCY--those are such good picks for people who don't normally read fantasy! I'm a sometime-fantasy reader myself, and those definitely worked for me. :)

Thank you!! I hope you try the other ones too :)
