Today I’m participating in Top Ten Tuesday, which was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each week there is a new theme/topic, and participants choose ten books that fit it.
This week’s theme is Top Ten Unread Books on My Shelves I Want to Read Soon. This topic was easy. lol. I have so many books on my shelves that I need to read. I’m always chasing after the new best things, which means many books get pushed off for months and years even though I really want to read them. I got back into reading as a hobby a little over three years ago, and many of these books go back to that time period. I hope to read them all soon(ish), but there are so many great books coming out this year, too. So, we’ll see what happens… The length of time the book has been on my shelves is in parentheses next to the title/author, and the covers link to Goodreads in case any of them catch your eye!
A New Dawn by John Jackson Miller (8 years 😲), The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee (3 years), The Invisible Life of Addie Larue by V. E. Schwab (3 years), Solitaire by Alice Oseman (3 years), Infinity Son by Adam Silvera (3 years)
The Kingdoms by Natasha Pulley (2.5 years), The Coward by Stephen Aryan (2.5 years), Red Rising by Pierce Brown (2.5 years), Dark Rise by C. S. Pacat (2.5 years), Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales (2.5 years)
There you have it! Ten unread books on my shelves I want to read soon. I hope it is okay to use a very liberal definition of the word ‘soon.’ lol. Have you read any of these? Let me know down in the comments!
Chris! Do you want to buddy read Addie LaRue? I think that could be a fun one 🙂 I’ve got Red Rising, Only Mostly Devastated and Infinity Son on my TBR too. This list was too easy to make, lol. 😂
Yes! Let’s buddy read Addie LaRue. Do you want to start in May?
Let’s do it! 😃
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is SO good!!!
I’ve been wanting to read it for so long because I’ve heard nothing but great things about it.
How do you even know how long you’ve had them?! lol! It would take some digging for me to figure out that info for my books…ok maybe it too hard, but it would take an annoying amount of time.
Lol. Almost all of these are from my early days of blogging or right before I started. I was religious about adding my purchased books to Goodreads back then. So, the date they were added to my TBR there is also the date I purchased them (or really close to it).
