Top Ten Tuesday #58 - Books On My Summer TBR List

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the lovely people at The Broke and the Bookish. This week's topic is -

Top Ten Books On My Summer TBR List

I don't know why I make TBR lists because I never end up reading anything on them! Hopefully this time will be different as I really want to read lots of books this summer but these books most of all. I need to re-read Bone Season, I loved it the first time but never wrote a review, the second book is out in mere months and I think it's time to refresh my memory of Paige's world. The rest are all review books or books I own that I want to make time for, hopefully two weeks away from home will include plenty of reading :)

The Bone Season | Take Back the Skies | The Girl Who Never Was

The Islands of Chaldea | Smiler's Fair

Heir of Fire | Falling Into Place | Winterspell

Dorothy Must Die | Anna & the French Kiss

Book Haul #81

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga's Reviews where we can share what new books we've picked up this past week be they bought, borrowed or downloaded. There are also lots of other 'book haul' memes out there for you to choose from!

Earlier this week I was sitting at my desk going through all my pre-orders & wishlists and it suddenly dawned on me how close YALC & LonCon are. I seriously need to start saving some money so I canceled the majority of my pre-orders and I removed all my quick links to various book shopping sites in the vain hope that I might stop buying books if only for a few weeks! So far, so good... The books I got were pre-orders that were already on their way and Hexed which I forgot to cancel on my Kindle so it better be good!

By the way, if you're in the UK and/or going to either YALC or LonCon let me know!

Book Haul #76

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga's Reviews where we can share what new books we've picked up this past week be they bought, borrowed or downloaded. There are also lots of other 'book haul' memes out there for you to choose from!

I really didn't mean to buy anything this week but I had a few 'slip-ups', I'm meant to be saving all my money for the fun I'm going to have at LFCC/YALC in July where I know there's going to be so much I want and I'll be mad with myself if I don't have the money! It's not too bad though, I had a gift certificate which covered the cost of two books (one of which, Fly By Night by Frances Hardinge, I had to buy, she's going to be at LFCC and I would love her to sign my books!) and the books I bought on my Kindle were cheap (as in 36p/21 cents for Among the Thorns, I know I could read it for free on Tor's website but I love that cover so had to buy it!) or free - the prequel for Skylar Dorset's faery novel, The Girl Who Never Was, out in June. And eeek! I got approved for The Girls At The Kingfisher Club, which is a retelling of The Twelve Dancing Princesses, set in the Roaring Twenties, and they're flappers!
