Top Ten Books on my Spring TBR

Top Ten Books on my Spring TBR

March 14, 2017 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 21 Comments

Spring TBR

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 on my Spring TBR. 

Well Autumn for us here in Australia, but it’s still around the same months. There is quite a lot of books coming out in the coming months. There are lots that I cannot even remember, but here are the top ten that I cannot wait to read. These are in month release order. So here is my Spring TBR;

Spring TBR 1

The Ship Beyond Time by Heidi Heilig: Last year I read The Girl From Everywhere (Full Review) and adored it! So I cannot wait to get my hands on book 2. I don’t know when it’s getting published in Australia yet, but I am keeping my eye out for it. There were questions left unanswered and more places to travel| Released March

Begin, End, Begin: A #LoveOzYA Anthology: Now if this wasn’t on my list, I don’t know what would be. I am so excited to read this anthology. It’s from so many amazing Aussie authors that shine in the YA world. I need it in my hands. | Coming April

Alex, Approximately by Jenn Bennet: This book just sounds so damn cute! I cannot wait to read it and devour it, all I’ve heard is such great things. Geeks, hidden love, and romance | Coming April

Lord of Shadows by Cassandra Clare: If you know me well enough, then seeing Lord of Shadows on my list won’t be a surprise. I don’t know how much longer I can wait. I need it now! Especially with Shadowhunters on break, I don’t have any of the shadowhunter world in my life. I think a re-read might be in order. | Coming May

Avenged by Amy Tintera: If you have read Ruined, then you know that the ending was one hell of a cliffhanger and it’s begging to be read. It’s everything that I love in a book and I am expecting great things from book 2 | Coming May

The Love Interest by Cale Dietrich: This just sounds epic and I want this book in my hands! 2 boys from different sides attempt to make a girl fall for them, but instead fall for each other. Umm yes, please. Oh, and there is spy school involved!  | Coming May

When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon: This has been getting so much love and I am so ready to read it. It sounds like a beautiful, fun and gripping read.  | Coming May

Cold Summer by Gwen Cole: Kale can time travel. One day he is a high school drop out, the other a soldier in World War II. Haunted by PTSD and his life falling apart, all Kale needs to find out that he will die in WWII – but now he must survive | Coming May

Girl out of Water by Laura Silverman: This sounds heartbreaking, heartwarming and uplifting. It’s a book that I’ve already heard so many good things about and I cannot wait to read it myself. Plus it features a disability and I am so in | Coming May

Brave New Girl by Rachel Vincent: I just found this book recently and I am intrigued. I haven’t read a dystopian in some time, but this one caught my eye. A girl who is unique when the rest of the world is the same | Coming May 

And that is it for this week! Are you looking forward to any of these books? Have you read any of these books? What else are you looking forward coming out in Spring? 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)

    Your list is the only one today that I’ve known more than two books off. I feel like that speaks volumes for our friendship. But seriously, I can’t wait for all the chats we’re going to have about Lord of Shadows.

    I have some of these on my TBR (although not on my top ten, because you know the struggle), including The Love Interest and When Dimple Met Rishi. I might have to get my hands on Begin, End, Begin, because I love short stories! Happy Autumn!!

    Cold Summer sounds excellent. Imagine going through life knowing when you would die. Wow! I don’t think I’d want to know at all.

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?

January was a really solid reading month. I read s January was a really solid reading month. I read some books that had been on my tbr for some time, reread a few things that peaked my interest. I also started a few new series. And just had a good time!

I just had a really good start to the year. While February is a little slow so far I’m looking forward to what I can pick up.
