Top Ten 2016 Releases I Didn't Read

Top 10 Tuesday is a post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish and this week's topic is Top Ten 2016 Releases I Didn't Read.

  1. Built (Saints of Denver, # 1) by Jay Crownover
  2. Never Never Pt 3 (Never Never, # 1) by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher - I have in my possession and it's even short, but I've heard that it was kind of a let down so I've been putting it off.
  3. Riders (Riders, # 1) by Veronica Rossi
  4. Lady Midnight (The Dark Artifices, # 1) by Cassandra Clare - Also in my possession. I think it's the length of this one that's had me waiting to start it.
  5. The Great Hunt (Eurona Duology, # 1) by Wendy Higgins - I actually got this one as a review book LAST YEAR! I started it, but it wasn't hooking my attention. Holly enjoyed it so I know I want to come back to it.
  6. The Raven King (The Raven Cycle, # 4) by Maggie Stiefvater - I really have no excuse on this one. I own it, but I've just been trying to catch up on review books.
  7. The Season of You and Me by Robin Constantine - I got approved for this one for review, but there was issues downloading it. I was so bummed.
  8. The Last Star (The 5th Wave, # 3) by Rick Yancey - Also in my possession, but again I'm putting it off because I've heard it wasn't the best ending to the series that I've enjoyed so much.
  9. PS I Like You by Kasie West - No excuses. I hope my library gets this one soon.
  10. The Beauty of Darkness (The Remnant Chronicles, # 3) by Mary E Pearson - Also one I own. I just got it for Christmas so hopefully I'll pick it up soon.
  11. Harry Potter & the Cursed Child (Harry Potter, # 8) by JK Rowling & Jack Thorne - Sheesh, I think I own almost all of these books on my list. I own this one too, but only in hardcopy and those aren't as easy to read these days running around chasing my one year old.
  12. Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, # 1) by Kendare Blake - I've got this one for review, but I saw the ratings start coming in for it and since it wasn't getting high marks I keep putting it off.
  13. Heartless by Marissa Meyer - Yep...no specific reason for not picking this one up yet either.

Are there any of these that I need to move up to the top of my TBR list immediately? Which books did you not get around to in 2016? Let me know!

Ten Books I'd Buy Immediately If I Had the Money

Top 10 Tuesday is a post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish and this week's topic is Top Ten Books I'd Buy If I Had the Money.

Ok so the truth is that I'm a cheapskate. I'm a hoarder of gift cards. I probably have enough money in gift cards to actually buy all of these books (especially because several are only $2.99), but I just can't bring myself to buy them just yet. However, if I had unlimited money and time then I'd buy these immediately.

  1. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (Harry Potter, # 8) by JK Rowling, John Tiffany, & Jack Thorne
  2. Chaos (Mayhem, # 3) by Jamie Shaw
  3. Never Never Pt 3 by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher
  4. Bathsheba (A Dangerous Beauty, # 2) by Angela Elwell Hunt
  5. Built (Saints of Denver, # 1) by Jay Crownover
  6. The Beauty of Darkness (The Remnant Chronicles, # 3) by Mary E Pearson
  7. The Anatomical Shape of a Heart by Jenn Bennett
  8. Lady Midnight (The Dark Artifices, # 1) by Cassandra Clare
  9. Inspiring You (Unraveling You, # 4) by Jessica Sorensen
  10. The Heart of Betrayal (The Remnant Chronicles, # 2) by Mary E Pearson (already read but don't own)

Which books would you buy immediately if you had the money? And which ones here should I go ahead and snatch up? Let me know!

Goodreads description--From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Marked Men books comes an electrifying new spin-off series,Saints of Denver, featuring all the characters fans have been dying to read about.

Sayer Cole and Zeb Fuller couldn’t be more different. She’s country club and fine-dining, he’s cell-block and sawdust. Sayer spends her days in litigation, while Zeb spends his working with his hands. She’s French silk, he’s all denim and flannel.

Zeb’s wanted the stunning blonde since the moment he laid eyes on her. It doesn't matter how many smooth moves he makes, the reserved lawyer seems determinedly oblivious to his interest—either that or she doesn't return it. Sayer is certain the rough, hard, hot-as-hell Zeb could never want someone as closed off and restrained as she is, which is a shame because something tells her he might be the guy to finally melt her icy exterior.

But just as things start to heat up, Zeb is blindsided by a life altering moment from his past. He needs Sayer’s professional help to right a wrong and to save more than himself. He can’t risk what’s at stake just because his attraction to Sayer feels all consuming. But as these opposites dig in for the fight of their lives, battling together to save a family, the steam created when fire and ice collide can no longer be ignored.

I really enjoyed the Marked Men series. I can't wait to pick back up with some of the background characters that intrigued me. What are you waiting on this week? Let me know!
