Special Edition Books I Would Love To Own – TTT

Special Edition Books I Would Love To Own – TTT

April 19, 2022 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 13 Comments

This week I changed it up a little. I don’t buy a lot of merch, so I thought I would share some special edition books I would love to own. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I don’t normally buy many special editions of books. I only really liked to buy one copy of a book. However, there are some exceptions. I have quite a few editions of Cassandra Clare books which I adore, and I love getting new ones. But today I’m sharing the ones that I would love to own. In saying that shipping to Australia is insane sometimes and it’s not worth it sadly.

But let’s get into it. As always these are in no order. I just want to make a quick note. Sorry about the quality of the images in this post. For some reason, we don’t get any good quality images of the covers, so it’s what I could find. Nevertheless, let’s go.  

covers of mentioned books

Fairyloot From Blood and Ash (Blood and Ash #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout | Illumicrate The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. | Illumicrate Circe by Madeline Miller | Bookish Box The Bargainer series by Laura Thalassa.

covers of mentioned books

The Bookish Box Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout | The Bookish Box A Touch of Darkness (Hades & Persephone #1) by Scarlett St. Clair. | Illumicrate Chain of Gold (The Last Hours #1). by Cassandra Clare | 10th Anniversary EditionDaughter of Smoke & Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone #1) by Laini Taylor.
 
And there we go. Those are the special and exclusive editions that I would love to own. Some of these are going for crazy amounts at the moment that I cannot afford, but maybe one day. Do you own any special editions? What’s your favourite? So, let’s Chat!

    Love the new covers. I often wonder why they don’t create these beautiful covers in the beginning. My TTT list

    I don’t buy book merch often so had to do a bit of internet research. I love a signed book though and have started collecting them – when a new book comes out I order a signed copy. Some books go for crazy amounts don’t they?!

    Happy TTT

    Oh, I absolutely love this cover for DoSaB! I ended up going for the other newer cover editions which I thought were cool as well but I think these would be better as paperbacks (I regret that I didn’t get them instead lol)! I also really love this SoA/Circe SE from Illumicrate. Stunning!

    Some of these special edition covers are so beautiful, but they can also be so expensive!! I agree with Anne’s comment above. I wish they would just create books with these covers from the beginning!

    I hope you get all of the special edition covers you’d like though 🙂 Thank you for sharing!

    I have different versions of Harry Potter but that’s about it. I love the new Daughter of Smoke and Bone covers though!

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.
