Top Ten Tuesday – Books That Have Been On My TBR the Longest and I Still Haven’t Read

toptentuesdays

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.

What are some books you’ve had on your TBR for a VERY LONG TIME? Are you still planning on reading them? Comment down below and don’t forget to leave a link to your TTT post so I can check it out.  sincerelykarenjo2

 

Cover Reveal – Slippers And Thieves by Christina Bauer

Slippers And Thieves
Christina Bauer
(Fairy Tales of the Magicorum #3)
Published by: Monster House Books
Publication date: TBA
Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult

Years ago, Elle—never call her Cinderella—escaped her evil step family in order to build a new life for herself in Manhattan. Today, Elle’s awful past is a distant memory. In fact, Elle even attends West Lake Prep, an exclusive high school where regular humans mix with members of the Magicorum, such as fairies, shifters and witches. Although she still must live in hiding from her evil stepfamily, Elle has always found ways to get whatever her heart desires.

That is, until Alec Le Charme.

Alec is the heir to the Le Charme dynasty of high-end jewelers. He’s also kind, charismatic, has a knee-melting smile. Elle has fallen for him, hard. Unfortunately, thanks to Elle’s evil step family, Alec is absolutely off limits. In fact, if Elle and Alec so much as kiss, it will start a magical chain reaction that would end in powerful factions of witches and wizards going to war. As a result, Elle and Alec vow to stay friends, no matter what. Then West Lake Prep holds a masquerade ball. Identities get mixed up and forbidden kisses are finally shared.

Time for the Magicorum to go to war, and for Elle to confront her hidden past in ways she never thought possible.
