Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week, we’re sharing the series we’ve been meaning to start, but haven’t. My real list would probably go on forever, and my list of series I’ve been meaning to continue but haven’t is even longer. But here are some that are a little higher up the list than others:
- Ash & Bramble (Sarah Prineas)
- Charlotte Holmes (Brittany Cavallaro)
- Graceling (Kristin Cashore)
- Passenger (Alexandra Bracken)
- Rebel of the Sands (Alwyn Hamilton)
- Remembrance of Earth’s Past (Cixin Liu)
- Sea of Ink and Gold (Traci Chee)
- The Star-Touched Queen (Roshani Chokshi)
- Wayfarers (Becky Chambers)
- Wayward Children (Seanan McGuire)
As for why I haven’t read these books, well. I don’t really know. There are a lot of reasons, but as always, they will eventually boil down to (1) time and/or (2) money. Since I do a lot of work-related reading, sometimes I just don’t get around to books that I want to read just because – at least, not ALL of them. I do hope that I’d get around to them eventually.
What are books that you’ve been meaning to read but haven’t – and why?
A few overlap and some I have never heard of! Amazing! My TTT: http://bit.ly/2sKxhFx

The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet is really fun. You should start it!! I have some hardbacks I haven’t started because I’ve been traveling, and took only paperbacks.

I’m pushing it higher up my list! One of my colleagues recently started on it and she’s been raving about it to me, so I can’t wait 🙂

I loved The Star-Touched Queen, I really hope you like it. I’ve been meaning to read the sequel. Every Heart a Doorway is a great story too.

I need to get a copy soon! Strangely enough, I own A Crown of Wishes but not The Star-Touched Queen… and while I haven’t read it, I’m looking forward to Every Heart a Doorway, because I love Seanan McGuire!

I’ve read Graceling (all the trilogy) and Passenger (still need to read book #2) – both excellent reads! Hope you get around to them soon. 🙂 I’m also intrigued by A Study in Scarlet and Rebel of the Sands, they both sound so interesting and unique! Great picks.

Oh boy, there are so many series I have to start including Passenger and The Star-Touched Queen. I’ve heard great things about both so I don’t know why I haven’t gotten around to them yet. 😫
You definitely need to read Graceling! It’s so good!

Rebel of The Sands is great! I also need to read The Star Touched Queen and The Reader but haven’t managed to get copies yet. I liked A Study In Charlotte but it’s not the greatest Sherlock story in the world.
