Top Ten Tuesday – Books I’d Slay a Lion to Get Early

toptentuesday

Hello wonderful bookish friends. Time for another fun Top Ten Tuesday post!!!

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 is Books I’d Slay a Lion to Get Early! While I do get approved for ARCs, there are still plenty of books that I don’t. I really don’t mind it though since I’m currently really behind my Netgalley TBR. However, that has never stopped me from requesting or wishing I had some books early.  So… these are just several books I would LOVE to have right now. I might not even read them right away, but I definitely want them!

Preorder Swag – From Twinkle with Love by Sandhya Menon

Hey loves. I wanted to quickly share this awesome Pre-order Opportunity for From Twinkle, With Love, which is expected to be released June 5, 2018. This novel is one of my anticipated reads in 2018 and I absolutely cannot wait! I loved Sandhya Menon’s debut novel, When Dimple Met Rishi, and I’m so excited to read more of her amazing books! And that cover is soooo stinkin’ cute!!! If you want to check out my review for When Dimple Met Rishi, click HERE.

synopsispic

ASPIRING FILMMAKER AND WALLFLOWER TWINKLE MEHRA HAS STORIES SHE WANTS TO TELL AND UNIVERSES SHE WANTS TO EXPLORE, IF ONLY THE WORLD WOULD LISTEN. SO WHEN FELLOW FILM GEEK SAHIL ROY APPROACHES HER TO DIRECT A MOVIE FOR THE UPCOMING SUMMER FESTIVAL, TWINKLE IS ALL OVER IT. THE CHANCE TO PUBLICLY SHOWCASE HER VOICE AS A DIRECTOR? DREAM COME TRUE. THE FACT THAT IT GETS HER CLOSER TO HER LONGTIME CRUSH, NEIL ROY—A.K.A. SAHIL’S TWIN BROTHER? DREAM COME TRUE X 2.
When mystery man “N” begins emailing her, Twinkle is sure it’s Neil, finally ready to begin their happily-ever-after. The only slightly inconvenient problem is that, in the course of movie-making, she’s fallen madly in love with the irresistibly adorkable Sahil.
Twinkle soon realizes that resistance is futile: The romance she’s got is not the one she’s scripted. But will it be enough?
Told through the letters Twinkle writes to her favorite female filmmakers, From Twinkle, with Love navigates big truths about friendship, family, and the unexpected places love can find you

Doesn’t the premise sounds so swoony and adorable!?!? Ahhh I’m sooo stoked for this book to come out!
