Top Ten Books I Read In One Day

Top Ten Books I Read In One Day

March 21, 2017 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 18 Comments

TTT - One Day

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone join as you please. This week’s topic is: Top Ten Books I Read in One Day 

This weeks theme is all about reading in one sitting or along those lines. And to tell you the truth, I do this a lot. I am a relatively fast reader and I can knock out books in a couple of hours. Sometimes I do take a break, but it’s pretty normal for me to start and finish a book in a day. If it’s a contemporary and I have nothing else to do, it’s going to be read in a day.

One Day 1

Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare: Now I wouldn’t normally read a 600+ page book in a day, however, I was at home recovering from my wisdom teeth operation and before I knew it. I had finished the book. Cassandra Clare brings the magic of the shadow world into a new light, in a gripping first novel of a new series, Lady Midnight is dark, fun and full of ups and down, it is going to rip your heart apart | Full Review

This Beats Perfect by Rebecca Denton: Earlier this year I went on a cruise, and for one of those days, I just sat by the pool and just read it all day. It’s the perfect book to sit and enjoy. This Beats Perfect is fun, addicting and put a smile on my face. It explores the notions of finding yourself, loving what you do and finding those who will stand by you. It’s about family, friendship and those you love | Full Review

A Thousand Letters by Staci Hart: When I get immersed in a novel, it’s hard for me to get out, and this is what happened with A Thousand Letters. Overall, It’s a heartbreaking read and will leave you an emotional wreck. It’s about family, friends and second chances. It’s about forgiveness, letting go and falling in love | Full Review

One day 2

The Deal Series by Elle Kennedy: If it’s new adult and contemporary – a one day read is high in odds. I loved reading these books. Ice hockey, fun and a little heartbreaking at times.

Vigilante by Kady Cross: I started this on the way to uni and by that night I had finished it. Vigilante explores the notion of rape culture, grief, family, friend, and love. It’s honest, heartbreaking, empowering and confronting, but a must-read | Full Review Coming Soon

The Secret Science of Magic by Melissa Keil: So I was lucky enough to read this while at my internship and I spent the whole day reading it and falling in love. It’s fun, crazy and put a smile on my face. But, it’s also heartbreaking.

One Day 3

The Winner’s Kiss by Marie Rutkoski: I couldn’t help myself. I needed to know how it was going to end. What was going to happen? The Winner’s Kiss takes you on a journey like no other, it captures your heart but wreaks your emotions, and it will break you and put you together over and over again until the last page | Full Review

Ruined by Amy Tintera: This book was addicting. I didn’t want it to end, but I wanted to know how it would end. Ruined explores what people would do for revenge, how our thoughts are created by our surroundings and how our feelings can change for people you think that you hate. It was a brilliant, high fantasy and I am ecstatic to read more | Full Review

Disruption by Jessica Shirvington: I don’t know why I put off reading this for so long. Because it was so good. With enthralling characters, an engrossing world and a plot that just keeps you right there in the action Disruption is a must read for everyone that loves YA and beyond | Full Review.

One Day 4

This Is What Goodbye Looks Like by Oliva Rivers: Another contemporary that I couldn’t stop reading. It’s a beautiful story about grief, family, love, forgiveness and doing what is right.

And that is it for this week! Do you read books in a sitting or in one day? Nevertheless, have you read any of these books in one day? However, have you never read a book in a day? Let’s Chat!

I love talking so talk to me over on my twitter @angel_reads, Facebook, instagram, tumblr and Goodreads. You can also follow Angel Reads on Bloglovin and via email (in the sidebar).

    I’m jealous that you read so fast!! I wish I could read a book in a day often– but for me it’s only every once in a while. I’m reading Vigilante right now and I’m almost finished… and I’m really liking it!

    I wish I could read as fast as you angel, despite reading a lot I’m relatively slow and have to really put in the time for my reading which isn’t really a chore because I love it haha. I’ll be getting into The Secret Science of Magic soon and look forward to seeing what it has to offer, I also need to FINALLY read The Winner Kiss. Great list 🙂

    I’m a fast reader as well. If I have a completely free day, I can easily finish a book or two in that amount of time (depending on how long they are).

    The Secret Science of Magic sounds really good.

    Great list! I’m hoping to read This Beats Perfect, Ruined and Disruption soon so I’m happy to hear they are unputdownable books 🙂 I didn’t read Lady Midnight in a day, but I still sped through it as well! And The Winner’s Kiss was indeed also unputdownable!

    I’m such a slow reader that it is next to impossible for me to finish a book in one day. lol Though there are definitely ones that have slipped through the cracks and I did finish quickly. Lady Midnight I definitely read as fast as I could. I love that world so much! A lot of NA I can read pretty quickly too. I probably finished The Deal after about a day too. 🙂

    I haven’t gotten a chance to read any of these yet, but I’ve heard really good things about a lot of them. I’m a pretty fast reader too. If I don’t have anything going on that day I can get a whole book read in a few hours, but it usually takes me two days because I have a crazy 4 year old daughter. lol!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
