Top Ten Tuesday by Alex: Throne of Glass Edition (62)

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
Gaby has given me the opportunity to do this week’s top ten, and since I’m guest blogging on behalf of the Throne of Glass series, guess what this week is going to be about! Yes, my fangirling and how/why you should fangirl with me! YAAAAAAYYY

Actually, Gaby gave me a couple of suggestions on what to do and I’m stealing them. Instead of a traditional 10, today I am going to split it up and do TWO Top 5s!

First of all, a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Sarah for the Throne of Glass series landing at #4 on the New York Times Best Seller List!

Which is a perfect segue into...

Top Ten Books On My Fall 2013 TBR List (33)

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
Even though I RARELY stick to these Top Ten Tuesday TBRs, I still make them. And I generally add books I already have to them, not the awesome books that are about to come out. Those will pop up and make my reading schedule more and more difficult as the months get colder and colder. So here are Ten Books I already have and intend to fit into my busy fall TBR. Many of these may not get read, as happened with my summer TBR Top Ten Tuesday, but still. I took the books off the shelves and took pictures. I'm hoping for brownie points.

1. CURTSIES AND CONSPIRACIES by Gail Carriger
2. SIEGE & STORM by Leigh Bardugo
3. THE DARKEST MINDS by Alexandra Bracken
4. THE ART OF WISHING by Lindsay Ribar
5. THE BOOK OF BROKEN HEARTS by Sarah Ockler 

6. FORGIVE ME, LEONARD PEACOCK by Matthew Quick
7. AMY & ROGER'S EPIC DETOUR by Morgan Matson
8. SECOND CHANCE SUMMER by Morgan Matson
9. LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR by Stephanie Perkins
10. THE BOY ON THE WOODEN BOX by Leon Leyson

What's on your Fall TBR? A bunch of books you already have? Maybe some highly anticipated fall releases? Let me know what's on your radar in the comments below!

Stacking the Shelves (6)

"Stacking the Shelves" is a weekly feature hosted by Tynga's Reviews
This week I went out of my way to try and not buy too many books. And yet somehow I ended up with 4 of them. I blame new releases and 30% off coupons. At least I borrowed more books than I bought. That's progress, right?

BORROWED


1. Ditched by Robin Mellom
This looks SO ADORABLE and I can't wait to eat it all up.

2. 13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson
This one's been on my list for A WHILE. I've never read a Maureen Johnson book before and I feel like my life is lacking for it. MUST READ NOW.

3. Graceling by Kristin Cashore
Ev-er-y-one LOVES this series. Everyone. I would very much love to be apart of this everyone.

4. Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry
I just like the summary of this one. And so I will read it.

5. The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
This one sounds exciiiiiiting, no? Yet another one I just HAVE to read.

BOUGHT


6-8. Leviathan, Behemoth & Goliath by Scott Westerfeld
What's that you say? Steampunk YA? By Scott Westerfeld? YES PLEASE.

9. Just One Day by Gayle Forman
Speaking of "YES PLEASE" moments: NEW GAYLE FORMAN. I was busy all Tuesday but I managed to make it to BN 15 minutes before close to snag a copy. I haven't even read it yet but I just NEEDED to have it in my possession. Now I do. WOOHOO.

What books did you guys accumulate this week? Leave me some comment love and let me know!
