Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish.
Books in my beach bag are any books that I think I'll absolutely love because everything's better at the beach!
Don't Look Back - I know this plot well - girl get amnesia and becomes a better person - unfortunately the book I read with the same plot was horrible. Everyone loves this on Goodreads so I'm looking for redemption.
Unbreakable - Secret societies, ghosts, and demons all by Kami Garcia.
Darkness Becomes Her - I love looking through the eyes of a character who is different, but being someone who is feared without knowing who you are - that's the interesting part.
The Sea of Tranquility - This is sure to hit me hard. A girl who doesn't speak and a boy who has lost everyone.
The Selection - I need to read this book already. It's sure to be amazing.
Faking Normal -Another one that is sure to hit me hard.
I Was Here - I just like sad books don't I?
Something Real - Completely unique concept or at least one I've never explored.
The Heist Society - I need a thief book in my life again.
The Meaning of Maggie - There is a lot of struggle I can see Maggie going through in accepting her father's disability.
What will you be taking to the beach this Summer?
I've read The Selection and I Was Here and really enjoyed both books, even though they are really different!
ReplyDeleteWell I like different in my books so that's good to know (:
DeleteOoooh! The Selection was such a great series! I hope you get to read it!
ReplyDeleteHere are my Top Ten!
I want to read them so BADLY! The same with the Raven Boys series. I'm sure I'll enjoy reading about all those boys heh heh...
DeleteYou have some books on your list you will need tissues for. Don't forget to bring them to the beach!
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Yeah, I'm going to definitely need those tissues. Hopefully for everyone else they don't go flying off into the wind...
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI just finished The Selection two weeks ago! I feel in love with the world and dying to read the next one! Great list!
Here's my list - http://wonderstruck-kcks.blogspot.com/2015/05/top-ten-twelve-books-that-i-plan-to.html
Oh good! I'm always happy to hear that a book I'm planning to read is loved by another reader (:
DeleteI enjoyed Don't Look Back. It was the first Jennifer L Armentrout book I read though. I hope you enjoy your beach bag books! My TTT
ReplyDeleteThat was unexpected. I've never heard of this book before browsing my library so it's nice to read that you enjoyed it Chrissi (:
DeleteI almost added The Heist Society on my list, but then I decided to go with a fantasy list instead. But yes, THS would probably make a great beach read because it just seems such a fun read :) Great choices in general too!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike (;
DeleteCool, a fantasy beach read list. Will check that out.
Hiya I'm a new follower :-) I REALLY want to read The Selection Series too, I've heard so many great things about it :-) I hope you enjoy all of these! Here's my TTT if you would like to check it out! Have a great day :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Emma! (Love your last name) If you want to read The Selection series and I want to read The Selection series I'm sure I'll love your blog (:
DeleteThanks for the suggestions!
ReplyDeleteHere's mine!
You're welcome Deb.
DeleteI've made a note or two. Love the list. :-)
ReplyDeleteAnna from Elements of Writing
Awesome!
DeleteThe Selection and the The Heist Society are both on my TBR. They both look like fun reads. I'm curious about Don't Look Back as well. I got it for my daughter for her birthday after some recommendations from some blogger friends and she loved it. I may steal her copy soon. Great list!
ReplyDeleteLove that you buy your daughter books. Not like my mom doesn't, but only the ones I ask because I read totally different books than she does. Steal away! I'm sure your daughter has great taste like you do (:
DeleteBeyonce also has a song i was here.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Summer!
My Top Ten Tuesday
Huh. Did not know that.
DeleteHeist Society is fantastic! I love that series, light, funny and fast paced and utterly brilliant. The Selection is definitely a light read but not particularly good. It's strange, kinda like crack in that you find yourself needing to read it even though it isn't that great. I love your choices, I hope you enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
WHAT!!!??? HAHAHA! I like you. When I get addicted to a book or series I usually completely gloss over the flaws so I kind of know what you are saying about The Selection.
DeleteThanks!
Love the variety! I hope to get to the beach sometime this summer. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope to LIVE at the beach this summer. I can't wait till this semester is over and just lie in the hot sun XD
DeleteI love the variety of your summer reading. I hope that you enjoy Heist Society as much as I did. I have a copy of Don't Look Back on my shelf from last years RT. I just checked and it never got officially added to my TBR. Happy summer of reading!
ReplyDeleteHeist Society looks like it will be very feel good - high school in a good way. I'm sure I'll enjoy it as much as you did. I'm happy I was able to help you out with Don't Look Back. If I end up loving it I might come back and whine for you to read it haha. We'll see.
DeleteThe Sea of Tranquility, I Was Here and Don't Look Back are also on my TBR.. They sound amazing!!
ReplyDeleteGreat list♥

Well I'm sure I'll enjoy your blog since we like the same books (:
DeleteThe Selection is so good! I definitely need to read the rest of that series. And Gayle Forman's books are always perfect beach reads. Great list :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my Top Ten!
I've only read two Gayle Foreman books (If I Stay and Where She Went). I feel like her books are more crying in a corner than beach reads, but according to my list I think sad books are beach reads haha (:
DeleteI love Ally Carter and with her Gallagher series, she made me want to be a spy and with her Heist Society books, I might consider being an art thief...
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to read that everybody likes Heist Society. I think I'll order it soon from the library to see for myself how great it is (:
DeleteI really enjoyed Unbreakable (if you like Supernatural it has that feel to it) The heist society was good also but I like spy/thief books
ReplyDeleteSupernatural the show or the genre??? I like both so I'm good either way (;
DeleteIt's rare that I read a thief book. Spy books - I've never read one that I remember. I need to explore more books!
How fun! I haven't read any of these- but many of them are already on my TBR list. I can't wait to hear your thoughts! I have a ton of books to read- so I should start lining up the ones for my beach bag. :)
ReplyDeleteYou and I are the same. There are so many books I've been waiting to read until now so my beach bag will be full this summer.
DeleteOoh you've got some great books on your list, Adriana! Something Real was AMAZING and I hope you love it too. I hope I Was Here works out for you too!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing I have Something Real on my bookshelf then isn't it. I'll make sure to keep it in mind more now that I know you loved it Melanie :D
DeleteI loved Heist Society, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2015/05/26/top-ten-tuesday-6/
Another vote for Heist Society! I'm going to have to read it very soon.
DeleteI hope you love The Selection! I really enjoyed it when I read it, and America and Maxon has such a cute romance!
ReplyDeleteThe Sea of Tranquility has been in my TBR as long as I can remember having a TBR shelf:) But I still haven't read it.I hope I will soon!
Cute romances always make me happy.
DeleteI haven't had The Sea of Tranquility on my tbr list that long, but I get what you mean. There are plenty of books that have been on my tbr list for years. I hope you read it soon too.
Those are fantastic choices! I loved Faking Normal, Something Real, Don't Look Back, and The Sea of Tranquility! Happy reading to you!
ReplyDeleteYay! I'm getting increasingly happy with the books I plan to read this summer.
