Top Ten Tuesday – Books On Hold and On My TBR

Hi friends, and welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Today’s topic is: Books on My Spring 2019 TBR. I’m going to be honest, I don’t exactly have books on my TBR that I wanted to read in spring. I just add books and read them whenever I can possibly get to them. So, here are the books that I have on hold right now from the library, and the five newest additions to my TBR!

*Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. Another fantasy book that is on my TBR. The main reason why I got a hold on it was because of the insane amount of hype surrounding King of Scars. However, fantasy has been disappointing me lately, so I’m going to push this back.

*Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. I don’t remember what this was about, but I’ve had a hold on it for about forever! I really hope it comes in soon so that I can see why Previous Me decided to add it to my TBR.

*Watching You by Lisa Jewell. Some of you may remember that this book was on my Winter TBR (I think?) and on my most anticipated releases for December list. It’s March, and my hold still hasn’t come through. I might just have to buy this one or wait for a very longtime.

*I Found You by Lisa Jewell. The premise of this sounds interesting and I’m hoping that I’ll enjoy Watching You. If I do, I’ll definitely be reading this.

*In the Woods by Tara Woods. I want to read this after I finish Vicious and I can’t wait to do so! It has a lot of great reviews.

*Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone. I loved the summary and the reviews assure me that I’m probably going to love this.

*Before She Was Found by Heather Gudenkauf. I saw a great review of this and the premise sounds very interesting.

*Four Dead Queens by Astrid Scholte. Another fantasy book that I’m going to push back into my-not-important-TBR.

*It Ends With Her by Brianna Labuskes. This has FBI Agents, serial killers, and murders? Sign me right up!

*One Word Kill by Mark Lawrence. As you all know, I am not a Sci-fi person. However a good friend of mine on Goodreads has been recommending this to me for a while, so I’ve finally given in and added it to my TBR.

That’s it for this Tuesday! What books are on your Spring TBR? Do you like the new theme? Let’s chat in the comments below! (Be sure to link to your TTT’s so I can check them out!)

Top Ten Tuesday – Upcoming Releases I’m on the Fence About

Hi friends and welcome to Top Ten Tuesday! Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme originally created by The Broke and The Bookish, and is now hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.

Today’s topic is: Upcoming Releases I’m on the Fence About

The books listed are a mix of upcoming releases and books that have already been released.

Let’s get started!

*King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo. So this is already released, and everyone, (I mean everyone) is reading it, or wants to read it, or is singing its praises after reading it. But I’m kind of like a rebel, so a super hyped book isn’t something I’m jumping to read, but I might eventually…

*On the Come Up by Angie Thomas. There was a lot of hype surrounding The Hate U Give and well, I didn’t read it. I’m not sure if I want to read OTCU either.

*You Owe Me a Murder by Eileen Cook. Ehh, sounds OK, but I’m not jumping up and down to get it.

*We Told Six Lies by Victoria Scott. It doesn’t have lots of four/five star reviews, so… I guess I’ll wait for more positive reviews 😆

*Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. Okay, I know – this was published four years ago, but still! I’m not sure if I want to read this or not and if you think I’d love it, let me know. (And based on what people are saying on GR, the characters in this book are also in King of Scars, so I guess reading this first would be better.)


*The Lost Girls of Paris by Pam Jenoff. This sounds amazing, and I really want to know about female spies during World Ward II. It’s not really mystery, so I’m a little hesitant.

*An Anonymous Girl by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. This was released last month, and it sounds like a twisted psychological thriller that I might enjoy. However, I keep passing it without adding it to my TBR. (Maybe my brain is trying to tell me that I might not like it?) If you’ve read it, and it’s amazing, let me know!

*Call Me Evie by J.P. Pomare. It is described as: “In this propulsive, twist-filled, and haunting psychological suspense debut perfect for fans of Sharp Objects and Room, a seventeen-year-old girl struggles to remember the role she played on the night her life changed forever. ” Anything compared to a book by Gillian Flynn is something I do NOT want to read. (Why? Well, let’s say that Gone Girl was the most catastrophic thriller I’ve ever read and I’m not about to read anything else by the author.) But the story seems promising, so I might.

*The Night Olivia Fell by Christina McDonald. This originally was on my most anticipated reads list, but I’ve pushed it down to the end of my TBR. Too many other books that seem so much better and I’m not interested in this one that much anymore…

*Beautiful Bad by Annie Ward. First of all, this was hyped by Goodreads and as mentioned previously, I’m a rebel. Second of all, Kendall mentioned that there was huge amount of unnecessary information and a not-so-satisfying ending, so…I’m on the fence with this one.
