Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Books I Read Before I Was a Blogger

Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Books I Read BEFORE I Was a Blogger

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Be sure to pop over to their blog to see what upcoming topics.

What a fun and interesting challenge it is to come up with this list. Let's see what I can come up with:

1) Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally

Hands down, one my sure bets and automatic buys is anything written by Miranda Kenneally. I just love her books! Catching Jordan is the first title I read by her and I just love it. Is it bad to say I have it as an e-book but I am contemplating buying a physically copy of it as well? My justification is I want to pass it down to my daughter to read when the time is right. 

2) The Cynster Family series by Stephanie Laurens

I like these titles and I have never written a review for any of them. There is the newest one, And Then She Fell on my e-reader to read soon so perhaps I will write a review about it. 

3) The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

I love this series (Percy Jackson and the Olympians) and I will openly admit I have not read either of the other two exclusively written by him series yet (Heroes of Olympus or The Kane Chronicles). I actually own them and would like to get them read this year. I have read all of the first 39 Clues series and the first one of the Cahills vs. Vespers second 39 Clues series.

4) Fool's Gold series by Susan Mallery

I really like this series. It is a great, lighthearted contemporary romance series. The next three are coming out beginning in May with the first one being Just One Kiss. While I have not read the newest title yet, I bet I will like it as much as the others. 

5) Lucky Harbor series by Jill Shalvis

Another lighthearted contemporary romance series, I enjoy long series. Like Fool's Gold, this series as another set of three books slated to be published starting in May. It Had to Be You is the next one up. Since I am referencing the series, I thought I would highlight the upcoming title. 

6) DUFF: Designated Ugly Fat Friend by Kody Keplinger

I really, really liked this title. I first came across it when I was doing my independent study on young adult contemporary fiction in grad school. I think there is something in this book that almost everyone can relate to at some point during their teen years. 

7) Shut Out by Kody Keplinger

Another book by Ms. Keplinger--I liked her sophomore title quite a lot too. I know it got mixed reactions but I appreciated it nonetheless. I have read it as well as listened to it. Is this cheating? I don't think so. ;-)

8) Divergent by Veronica Roth

I ALMOST did not put this on my list then I realized it was one of those titles I LOVE that I have never done a review for and read before I started this. I mentioned before that I am a contemporary fiction girl usually but this is one of favorites. 

9) Delirium by Lauren Oliver

Again, one I did not initially think to put on this list but I loved reading it prior to starting this blog. I actually have Requiem ready to read here at home too but it is currently in a box. 

10) The Season by Sarah MacLean

I love this book and have read it several times since the first time shortly after it came out. I am sad that the other two girls stories will not be written as I think they would be equally as good. If you have not read it it is a regency era mystery-love story without laugh out loud moments. 





Whew, my list of ten that I love but have not reviewed. It was harder than I thought it would be to come up with that list.
