Books I Love That I Want Something Similar To | TTT

Books I Love That I Want Something Similar To | TTT

June 8, 2021 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 7 Comments

This week I’m sharing the books that I want more of that are similar to books I love. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

This was such a hard topic to frame, but what I’m sharing are the books that I adore and love that I want something similar to. I don’t want something exactly the same. Sometimes it is just the feel the book has given me. Or I want characters that are similar. But there is something about the book that makes me want more. It’s a mix of romance and fantasy and everything in between here. 

Anyway enough of this chatter, here are the books that I love that I want something similar to. Like always these are in no order. 

Six of Crows (Six of Crows #1) by Leigh Bardugo | The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune | With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo | This is How We Change the Ending by Vikki Wakefield 

Check, Please! Book 1: #Hockey (Check, Please! #1-2) by Ngozi Ukazu | Romanov by Nadine Brandes | And I Darken (The Conqueror’s Saga #1) by Kiersten White | Life on the Edge (Edge #1) by Jennifer Comeaux 

Nowhere But Here (Thunder Road #1) by Katie McGarry | Trial by Fire (Worldwalker #1) by Josephine Angelini

And there we go, those are the books that I love and adore and want something similar to. Do you have any suggestions for any of these books? Have you read any of these? Let’s Chat!

    Oh I do need to read the house at the cerulean sea. I’ve heard some great things. And with the fire on high too. I’ve read and loved other Alcevedo books and I am not a contemporary reader at all <3

    Good news… T J Klune has another book coming out soon, which is equally fabulous – ‘Under the Whispering Door’. There’s a review of it on my blog if you want to pop over: wordywitterings.com

    I enjoyed With the Fire on High, too, and I keep meaning to read other books by Elizabeth Acevedo. I’ve heard wonderful things about her other books.

    Yes to Nowhere But Here!!! I still wish we had gotten one more book from that series. The only other motorcycle gang series I’ve read that was as good is Nine Minutes by Beth Flynn. It’s more disturbing and dark, though.

    I had Six of Crows on my list this week too. I also really liked Romanov, I need to look out for if Nadine Brandes has any new stuff out.

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?
