Hello
everyone! Top Ten Tuesday is just how it
sounds, a topic is picked and we put our Top Ten for that in a post and share
and check out everyone’s answers. Top
Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
The top ten today is: Longest sitting TBR books (before blogging)
Okay this is kind of depressing how many books are
sitting on my shelf unread. More so now
as I contemplate the issue of packing them up and moving them. Still as I look at my shelves I know some
have been sitting much longer than others.
Here are 10 of the ones sitting for the longest time.
Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters
#1) by Michelle Zink- I was new to buying books and found Sam’s Club had some
pretty good choices (then at least) and they were cheaper than the book store
(before discovering Amazon) so I picked up this one with a pretty creepy cover.
Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan- I only
finally bought this series two years ago but I’ve been meaning to read them
since well before when the first movie came out and I knew they were
books. Planned to read them this year
and finally catch up…not going so hot.
Infinity (Chronicles of Nick #1) by Sherrilyn
Kenyon- I saw them around and was new to the book world and heard a couple of
good things and bought them…still haven’t started
Tiger’s Curse (The Tiger Saga #1) by Colleen
Houck- Okay so I wanted to read these because I LOVE white tigers they are my
favorite animal and one of the covers has one on the cover that’s how I found
them. Then I heard some friends talking
about how awesome they were…just haven’t read them yet.
White Cat (Curse Workers #1) by Holly Black- Okay
so another Sam’s Club buy that looked interesting and I know lots of people
enjoy this series I just haven’t started it.
I have read another book by her though that made me even more interested
in this one.
Need (Need #1) by Carrie Jones- Pretty cover and
it sounded interesting at the time though I don’t remember what it was supposed
to be about.
Incarceron (Incarceron #1) by Catherine Fisher-
Okay so this sounds old but the cover was what drew me in. I love old school keys they look so
cool. Also I hadn’t really read many YA
books at the time so figured futuristic prison sounded new and exciting.
Tumble & Fall by Alexandra Coutts- An end of
the world story where they aren’t trying to fix things or save the world just
make the most of what’s left. Sounded
different. It was even a group read for
my group at one point but things got crazy and I never started it.
Thirteen Days to Midnight by Patrick Carman-
Pretty sure I was browsing the books in Walmart with a friend one day and just
decided I needed this one because of a blurb or something.
Partials (Partials #1) by Dan Wells- This one was
everywhere and I wanted to be on board with everyone but never got there.
Some
of these I still plan to trying to read others I’m on the fence about
currently. If you’ve read any let me
know what you think. Tell me what you
think of my list in the comments below.
Also please link back to your Top Ten as well so I can check out your
list and see what I missed!
I read Partials a long time ago and then decided not to continue with the series. I remember it annoyed me for some reason, but it's been so long, I don't know why now. I also have never started the Percy Jackson series which is a shame because I think I would like it.
