So, what do you think of my list? Have you read any of these and did you enjoy them as much as me by any chance (it's okay if you didn't)? Do you have any recommendations for me? What are some of the books that have made your list this week?
Interesting list, Lauren! I haven't read any of these books and am rather behind on Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles but yay for 5-star reads :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
Mine has quite a bit of variety, doesn't it. :) I'm always so pleased to find something I like as much as these!
DeleteThanks for sharing!
I adored Lady Helen too.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching the Walking Dead (mostly through my fingers as I keep covering my eyes!) so well done for keeping pace with the books as well :-)
Yay!
DeleteI'm so nervous about what's going to happen with Began!
Illuminae just keeps popping up! I think it's a sign that I need to read it... Great list!
ReplyDeleteIt was so awesome! I hope you like it!
DeleteIlluminae I agree with... quite the book. I like that there's some graphic novels on here also- I've been reading more of those lately.
ReplyDeleteI've read some pretty good graphic novels lately!
DeleteGah I really want to read The Dark Days Club, I read an excerpt and now I want more!
ReplyDeleteOh I loved Noelle Stevenson's Nimona I'll definitely have to check out Lumberjanes!
Happy Reading

I've read both by Stephenson, and I need more.
DeleteYou've got some great picks here Lauren! I absolutely love Winter and Illuminae! They're on my list as well. :) I've been wanting to read the Curse Workers Series for a while now, but haven't heard too much. Here is my TTT!
ReplyDeleteYou should really try The Curse Workers series - it's one of my all time favorites!
DeleteTHE SHADOW THRONE! That's one of my favorites. I love Jaron and I think this last book in the trilogy had me metaphorically biting my nails. It's so good!
ReplyDeleteThat first one looks really good. As does the Holly Black one. I hear a lot about her but haven't had the chance to read her yet.
The Curse Workers series is a great place to start with Holly Black. Thanks for visiting my blog!
DeleteI haven't read any of these books yet. Winter has been sitting on my shelf staring at me for months, I really need to read it soon.
ReplyDeleteThe cover for Magritte's Marvelous Hat made me chuckle a little. There are some other books on this list that I plan on reading as soon as I have time to.

I completely just stumbled upon Magritte's Marvelous Hat, such a unique and creative picture book. Thanks for sharing!
DeleteI haven't read any of the books on your TTT list this week. Time to add more book titles to my ever growing reading wishlist!! Happy reading to you!!

I need to read The Shadow Throne, it's been on my shelf for ages! Good to see Winter on your list, love that series!
ReplyDeleteThe Shadow Throne is such a great series ender! I hope you like it. :)
DeleteOooo I haven't read the Bill Nye but that looks really interesting! I love him
ReplyDeleteWhat a wide variety of books! :) So happy to see Winter; I'm currently reading it!
ReplyDeleteI am planning to read Illuminae soon, already own the copy. It's so different! And I still need to check out the Lunar chronicles. I have not read a single book on your list. Thanks for the list, I am adding all these on to my tbr list.
ReplyDeleteOh Winter made my list! I need to read Illuminae, the Dark Days Club, and the Holly Black series! Also I love TWD show and only hear good things about the comics!
ReplyDeleteWonderful mixture on your list :)
ReplyDeleteI hope to read Illuminae very soon :)

ReplyDeleteIlluminae and Winter were two of my favorite books of 2015, so I am so glad you enjoyed them as much as I did!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing and, as always, fabulous post! <3

I'm so curious about the Lunar Chronicles. I've never read any of the books but I keep hearing of how good they are.
ReplyDeleteI love Winter and Illuminae was great too! I still need to start The Walking Dead comics though. I have a huge volume, but I haven't read any yet.
ReplyDeleteYay Illuminae!! I bought Dark Days a few weeks back and I'm excited to get around to reading it. I'm also hoping to start The Lunar Chronicles series really soon. I wasn't a huge fan of Lumberjanes, but I'm thinking of re-reading it and seeing if I change my mind.
ReplyDeleteWinter was a really good book. And The Dark days club is on my TBR!
ReplyDeleteI have Winter and Illuminae and NEED to get to them. Great list!
ReplyDeleteYes to Illuminae! I really need to read the Dark Days Club and Winter since I've had them for some time, now!
ReplyDeleteI loved Illuminae! And I definitely need to read The Dark Days Club & Winter asap. Happy to hear you loved them. Great list. Thanks for sharing, and for stopping by my TTT earlier. :)
ReplyDeleteAhhh! There's Marissa Meyer's books again; that series continues to taunt me. ;) Also, I've heard great things about "Illuminae."
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for visiting Finding Wonderland, Lauren.
