Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and has been moved to That Artsy Reader Girl since January 16, 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
This week’s topic for Top Ten Tuesday is – Books That Have Been On My TBR the Longest and I Still Haven’t Read (but I still plan to…someday). I’m sure we can all agree that our TBRs will never end. Personally, mines has been out of control for a very long time and just grows and grows every single day. There are TOO MANY BOOKS that I want to read…so without further ado, here are 10 books/series that I still plan on reading someday, but have been on my TBR forever….
I’ll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios
After I read the premise for this book, I knew I had to have it. I bought the book from Bookoutlet, it arrived, added it on my TBR, and somehow I forgot about it. I went to Yallwest, met the author, and told her how excited I was to read it, but then weeks and months later, I still haven’t. It’s been years now and it’s still on my TBR waiting to be read. I do plan on reading it…just don’t know when.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
by J.K. Rowling
I really need to just finish this series. I have the book set. I read the first book years ago and loved it. I also really love the movies. Oh and I’m quite obsessed with all things Harry Potter, so I don’t know what spell I’m under because I can’t seem to bring myself to marathon these books.
Crewel World Series by Gennifer Albin
So this was a bit of an impulse buy when I first discovered Bookoutlet. I can never resist books with gorgeous covers. I did briefly read the premise and was quite intrigued, but years later and I still have not even started.
The Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
I really enjoyed The Red Queen and was incredibly excited when this book came out. But as usual, I was reading something else at the time. I planned on rereading before starting this so I can get a refresher, but decided I would just wait it out until the other books came out.
The Red Rising Saga by Pierce Brown
I’ve heard so many amazing things about this series, so I really don’t know why I haven’t started it… I mean other than the fact that I like to binge series cause I’m not that very good at waiting. I do have 2 of the books though.
Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
I’ve had the book set for like 5 years now and I tell myself all the time that I’m going to start this series on so and so month… but still hasn’t happened.
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
Here’s another series that I’ve been wanting to read in forever, but for some reason I haven’t…If I only have enough time I think most of these books would have been read already… but Oh My Damn … there are just way too many awesome books that I add more than I can read.
The Program Series by Suzanne Young
I had this book on my Amazon wishlist for quite a while… then I discovered Bookoutlet and bam… I bought the books and planned on finally reading them. But I get reading mood swings and I wasn’t feeling the dystopian theme or reading about suicides. I guess I’m still not in the mood to read anything heavy or depressing.
Enders (Starters #2) by Lissa Price
I saw the first book while shopping at Costco and thought whoa that cover is absolutely mesmerizing. I immediately grabbed the book, read the premise and bought it. I remember reading and being incredibly intrigued by the storyline. It was interesting, thrilling, a bit creepy, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I saw the book on sale… wait for it… at BOOKOUTLET. This online bookstore is without a doubt the best and the worst. I could spend hours just browsing books there and the prices are so great that I end up buying so many. I love it when I finally get my order and opening the box is just so exciting. But then I end up with all these books… It shouldn’t really surprise me that I haven’t read most of them.
Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
When I first got obsessed with Bookoutlet, this was one of the books/series that I wanted to read. I tried to buy all of them with every intention of doing a reading marathon…but… yeah I really don’t have an excuse. I did read the Wait for You series by JLA and absolutely loved it so maybe this year I’ll finally get to this… hopefully.
Bookoutlet was definitely one of the main reasons why I have so many books on my shelves. Seriously…do not get addicted to Bookoutlet. Not that I regret buying from there, but it’s a love/hate thing.

Haha I know… my wallet does not like Bookoutlet.
Mannn I really need to finish HP. I keep saying every year I’m going to marathon it and I really want to, but I always find shorter series or other standalones to read. I also buy the illustrated version hoping it’ll make me want to read, but instead I just look at the pretty pics. I’m definitely one of those fans who LOVE HP but haven’t finished reading.

I know! I placed my very first order with them during Black Friday — because somehow that site had remained a mystery to me until then — and now there’s no turning back!
I wish you luck with HP! It’s worth diving into in my extremely biased opinion, but it is a commitment, so I understand.

Yes to finishing Harry Potter!! I just finished Chamber of Secrets and can’t wait to continue with the series. So far it’s been really good though, and I’ve heard it gets better! Also, BookOutlet is the best/worst! I have to pry myself away from that website all the time!
