Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Every week is a different theme for bloggers to post their Top Ten.
This week’s theme is: Books I Meant to Read In 2018 but Didn’t Get To.
These are all books I currently OWN (a lot of them were ARCS. EEEK 😬) but kept getting booted down the line when something shiny & new caught my attention. Maybe February should be my Back-List Month?
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
*this is actually a high priority for me but I accidentally put it in storage with a lot of my books and haven’t been able to get it out!!!
I meant to read the first book in the Red Rising series but forgot to list it. So many books…. My TTT Books I meant to read last year
I hope you get to it! The first three in the series are so great, IDK why but I just couldn’t get hyped enough for Iron Gold.
I’ve seen so much hype about ‘Seven Husbands’ but don’t think it’d be a great fit for my style of reading. But I too did want to read “Heart of Iron.” It sounds so unique! Hope we both get to it in this next year, and enjoy. Happy 2019 reading. 🙂
Hopefully they’ll make Seven Husbands into a movie and then you can just watch that! At this point that’s probably what will happen to me too since IDK when I can get my book back! 😂 😂Happy reading!!
Great list! I highly recommend Becky Albertalli. She’s such a great writer.
I really enjoyed ‘Simon vs’ and meant to read Upside right after but I got distracted! I also read an excerpt from Leah on the Offbeat and really enjoyed it, so hopefully I can read both this year!
The Upside of Unrequited was on my list of books I should have read in 2017, and I still haven’t picked it up! Oops. I also put Iron Gold on my list this week, because I read the first 100 pages and then got scared and abandoned it. Should definitely get around to it sooner rather than later, though, because I want to be caught up when Dark Age is eventually released.
I def NEED to read Iron Gold before Dark Age comes out but I also realized I might not REMEMBER exactly what had happened in the previous book?? And I’m definitely going to need like a “Previously On Red Rising…” segment to catch up before I can read it 😂
I haven’t read any of these books yet either, but they do sound good.
This is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
😂😂😂then we’re in the same boat!!
I loved The Upside of Unrequited! Hopefully you’ll feel the same when you get around to it

Yay!!! I feel like most people either talk about ‘Leah on the Offbeat’ or ‘Simon Vs’ so I hadn’t heard a LOT of praise for ‘The Upside’ when I bought it. Glad to hear you loved it!
Grace and Fury was on my list this week too!
My TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2019/01/22/top-ten-tuesday-195/
TWINS! I got it in an Owlcrate and sadly like most of my Owlcrate reads I haven’t gotten to it yet. So many books, so little time!
The Upside of Unrequited has been on my list for a long time now. The Black Witch looks really good, too.
HTML: Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
I got The Black Witch at BookCon because the author was there signing and it sounded so interesting but it just got lost in the shuffle. I MIIIIGHT wait until more of the books in the series are out before I read it though.
I read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo last year and it was… definitely an experience. It was definitely a well-crafted book!
I can’t wait to read it!!! People seem so crazy about it I”m surprised it’s not already picked up by a movie studio!
Oh you have some great ones. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is absolutely fab. One of the best books I ever read. Happy reading
Thank you!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on it – I might break down and just get the kindle version if I can’t get back my physical copy.
Upside of Unrequited is on my TTT too! Heart of Iron is really great, I definitely recommend the audiobook for that one! It was really great!
I LOOOVE audiobooks! I got Heart of Iron in an Owlcrate box and it has these beautiful purple edges but audiobook might be the way for me to go on that one.
I haven’t read any of these yet but I think they’re making Empire of Sand into a Netflix movie! Either that or a TV show… I can’t remember. I haven’t read any of these yet, but that and a couple others look good.
Oh shoot really?! That would be awesome! I am very much into Netflix adaptations! They’ve been so good recently.
The upside of un-required is on my list too! It’s a book from my early-blogging where I wanted to read it and yet couldnt as I don’t think it was translated.. now I can !! Mayybe i’d buy this too with my bookstore giftcard ive got for christmas 😏
Bookstore giftcards are honestly the BEST! Tell me if you read it, I wanna know what you think!
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is pure perfection! I hope you get to it, and all of these books, soon and enjoy them!
Yay thank you!!!! I am thiiiiiiis close to just buying a new copy of Evelyn Hugo because it’s been like six months since I put everything in storage and I NEED IT!
