Ten Books On My Spring TBR

It's time for another Top Ten Tuesday post! I feel as if I haven't done one of these in forever, but here we are now.
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the ladies over at Broke and Bookish blog. Each Tuesday, there's a new topic, and you make a list of your top ten things that fit this topic. Pretty straight forward, yes?
This week's topic is...
 
Ten Books On My Spring TBR
 
I'm excited for this one. I have Spring Break starting after school tomorrow, so lots to look forward to! Specifically, lots of reading to look forward to.
 
  1. Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff - I just checked this one out from the library this past weekend, and I am so looking forward to it! Japanese Steampunk with griffins? Sign me up. It's the first in an epic fantasy trilogy, and I have been in such a fantasy mood lately. Hopefully this book will settle my little book dragon needs!
  2. Twice Upon A Time by James Riley - Currently reading this one, which was recommended to me by a brother who never reads. He really liked it. I'm about halfway through and thoroughly enjoying it as well! Lots of humor, with a good healthy dose of pirates, and magic, and princes. Yes, please! I think it would have helped if I had read the first book before diving into the sequel, but maybe the first book can also be on my Spring TBR.
  3. The Bane Chronicles by Cassandra Clare, Sarah Rees Brennan, and Maureen Johnson - Just checked this out on Saturday as well. Magnus Bane was my favorite character from the Shadowhunters Chronicles, so I'm hoping that I will really like him in these stories as well. Only read one story so far and felt 'meh' about it, but I have faith it will improve!
  4. The Death Cure by James Dashner - I read The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials this month, and I hope to read the concluding novel to this YA Dystopian trilogy this month as well! Or, at least this Spring. The first two were super quick, action-packed, fast-paced reads, so if the conclusion is as heart-pounding as the other books, I'll fly through it.
  5. The Alchemyst by Michael Scott - I have been telling myself I will read this before my birthday (late May) and so I  shall! Maybe I can read the other five books in the series as well? We'll see! Very much looking forward to giving this a reread, as I loved it back in Middle School. It's super unique and I can't really think of anything to compare it to. Honestly still one of my favorite series, so I hope a reread holds up!
  6. Lost Stars by Claudia Gray - A book that is part of the Star Wars extended universe. I love Star Wars, and was so happy when they came out with a Young/New Adult novel about different characters during the events of the movie. I've only read half of a different extended universe novel, so I hope this will be great...!
  7. Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare - People have been saying to wait until I read Tales from Shadowhunters Academy, but honestly, I'm too anxious to read this one! If you saw my February Wrap-Up, you saw that all I read in February was Shadowhunters books. Still feeling the withdrawal, guys. Need to read this as soon as possible! If only the library didn't have 25 holds on this book... augh.
  8. Flamecaster by Cinda Williams Chima - SCREAMING LITERAL MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2016. COMING OUT IN LESS THAN A MONTH. AHHHH WHAT IS LIFE. I am so excited to read this ahhh! Cinda is my favorite author (only after Tolkien) and this new series is set in the same world as my favorite series! And follows the children of my favorite characters! I cannot wait for this one and as soon as it comes out, I'm doing my best to read it!
  9. Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling - Rather specific, but I want to reread this before my birthday as well. I try to reread at least one Harry Potter book every year, and I haven't read any Harry Potter this year?? Gasp?? This cannot stand. I must reread. I must.
  10. Winter by Marissa Meyer - Shame on me for not reading this yet, honestly. I love The Lunar Chronicles and I've even read the Prequel (which I almost never do for series.) I got this from the library yesterday, however, so hopefully I'm ready and all the precious babies stay safe !!


    There it is! My top ten books I'll be reading this Spring! As long as my most anticipated release of this Spring. What do you have on your spring reading list?

  1. I also really want to read Alchemyst, and I MUST read some Cinda Williams Chima and Stormdancer for that matter! Oh and I'm waaayyy overdue for a HP reread. I used to read the entire series every year but I haven't done in a while and I really miss it :) Also, I hope you love Winter as much as I did^^ x

    1. It makes me so sad that so many people don't like The Alchemyst series, as I greatly enjoyed it! Hopefully, you like it too! I love rereading Harry Potter, it just gives me that nice cozy feeling! And the fifth book is one of my favorites. Happy reading!

  2. Great picks! Winter is one I am eager to read soon. I have read up through Cress and just got Fairest from the library. The Death Cure was alright, but I think the first book was, by far, the best. And you can never go wrong with any Harry Potter! I hope your spring is filled with amazing reads!
