Happy Tuesday everyone! Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is Books By My Favorite Authors That I Still Haven’t Read. Here we go without further ado, in order by title:
The Archived (The Archived #1) by Victoria Schwab - Somehow I haven't read any of Schwab's non-adult books - I'm going to have to change that starting with this novel.
Grave Sight (Harper Connelly #1) by Charlaine Harris - I've read all of the Sookie Stackhouse books and I'm working on the Midnight, Texas series. I definitely wan to to try this since I've heard Manfred appears in this series as well.
In A Handful of Dust (Not a Drop to Drink #2) by Mindy McGinnis - I've read quite a few of this talented Ohio author's books, but somehow I haven't gotten to this one yet (as well as her two most recent releases). I definitely have to get to this companion soon.
It by Stephen King - I've read a ton of King's books but somehow I never picked this one up although I have a copy on my shelf - probably because I was so traumatized by Tim Curry's Pennywise as a kid. I'd like to tackle it before the second part of the new movie is released though.
Lament (Books of Faerie #1) by Maggie Stiefvater - I have no clue how I've never started this older series from this author - considering how talented she is, I'd love to see how she handles the fae.
The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus #1) by Rick Riordan - I've read Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Kane Chronicles, and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard - now I just have to get caught up on Riordan's two other mythology based series that I've haven't gotten too yet beginning with this one.
The Orc King (Transitions #1) by R.A. Salvatore - I've read the first sixteen books in The Legend of Drizzt - and it's about time I catch up! There are currently thirty-one books featuring everyone's favorite drow, so I've got a lot of great reading coming my way.
Preludes & Nocturnes (The Sandman #1) by Neil Gaiman - Surprisingly I haven't read this graphic novel series from one of my all time favorites. Plus, this series features one of my favorite DC characters, John Constantine, and it's the inspiration for one of my favorite tv show's Lucifer!
Tithe (Modern Faerie Tales #1) by Holly Black - Holly Black is one of the best YA authors, especially when it comes to my some of my favorite stories featuring the fae, so I definitely need to get in gear and tackle this series soon.
Yesternight by Cat Winters - This author writes some of the best historical fantasy out there, and I need to get caught up on her work.
Have you ready any of these books? What are some of your favorite authors? As always, thanks very much for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
I haven't read Yesternight either and in fact, I have another of her books on my list this week. I must catch up before her next release!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed we'll both enjoy them!
DeleteHope you enjoy all of these, Lauren! I've heard amazing things about Victoria's books... but so far, I haven't. :D
ReplyDeleteHappy Top Ten Tuesday.
She is fantastic - and can't wait to try more from her!
DeleteI really need to read more from Holly Black! :-) Fab list. My TTT
ReplyDeleteThanks, Chrissi! She's so great isn't she. :)
DeleteI never went back and read Maggie Stiefavater's older series. I went off the board this week and listed my favorite banned books since it is banned books week. My TTT Favorite Banned Books
ReplyDeleteGood idea with the topic change! :)
DeleteI need to read Tithe too, in fact I've been wanting to for a while! Same with McGinnis. And oh my gosh 31 Drizzt books? I knew he had written quite a few but I didn't know there were that many! I think I only read the first trilogy.
ReplyDeleteI started in on the Drizzt books way back when I was in high school... I hope you like McGinnis!
DeleteI didn't know that Holly Black had all those other books. I have The Cruel Prince on hold at the library right now.
ReplyDeleteWow, 31 books is a lot! I can only hope my most favorite authors keep writing until they have 31 books out!
I know right! Thanks for visiting!
DeleteSandman made it to my list as well. But I really think you should read IT. I haven't read Dark Tower (forgive me!!) and according to a friend that's his magnum opus so I have no right to claim being a fan- but in my defense, IT was his true magnum opus. It's a brilliant book!!
ReplyDeleteI've read all but the last couple Dark Tower books myself... Soon I'll get there!
DeleteMy co-bloggers are such BIG Rick Riordan fans. I started Percy Jackson and need to pick up that series again.
ReplyDeleteRiordan is so fantastic!
DeleteIt was quite the scary story. If you like the rest of King's work, I think you'll enjoy that one, too.
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Fingers crossed!
DeleteThe Archived is one I need to read as well! I love V.E. Schwab. I am sad I didn't start her books any sooner.
ReplyDeleteHere is my TTT: https://thebookdutchesses.com/2018/09/25/ttt-46-books-by-my-favorite-authors-that-i-still-havent-read/
Thanks very much for coming over, Isabelle!
DeleteI still need to read The Archived too, and some others by Schwab, but I'm making my way through them. :)
ReplyDeleteI've read a couple of the Sandman graphic novels but I need to start from the beginning. So good!

I hope we'll enjoy them all!
DeleteI really loved Sandman - very dark and fascinating. Tithe has been on my list forever. Hope we both enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteDani @ The Restricted Section
Fingers crossed!
DeleteI've read The Archived (and enjoyed it) but haven't got to the sequel yet. I really enjoyed the Heroes of Olympus books, I hope you do too!

I can't wait to get there! :)
DeleteI’ve read IT. It’s not my favorite King book because it’s so long! No book needs to be that long. I need to read The Archived and In A Handful Of Dust, too.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
We'll see what happens and I hope we'll both like The Archived and In A Handful of Dust. :)
DeleteThe Archived and Lament are both on my list. I've read Maggie Stiefvater's Raven Cycle and Wolves of Mercy Falls, but somehow I haven't gotten around to her faerie books yet.
ReplyDeleteSame here - happy reading to the both of us!
DeleteThe Archived is the only Schwab book I have read. I really need to fix that, or at least finish the duology.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT https://wp.me/p3ftwe-XX
For sure! :)
DeleteThanks for sharing, Jazmin.
I'm really wanting to read the Harper Connelly series too. Awesome list! Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming over, Ashley - I'm hoping we'll both like it!
DeleteThe Archived is one I've been meaning to get to as well, I've heard nothing but awesome things about it. The Sandman graphic novels are my favorite work from Neil Gaiman and one of my favorite series in general! I don't think I've ever seen that Maggie Stiefvater one before, I'll have to check it out! I didn't love The Raven Boys, but I feel like I'd like other books from her. What a great list! I hope you have a chance to read all of these!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed! Thanks for coming over, Jordan. :)
DeleteWhat a great group of Authors! The Archived, Lament, and The Sandman are all books I've been wanting to read too. But I loved Tithe!! If you like Holly Black I think you'll love it, it's such a good one.
ReplyDeleteGood to know, Loretta!
DeleteOh, I love It (and want to find time for a reread at some point), so I hope you like It too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week. - Katie
Thanks, Katie!
DeleteSandman is a work of brilliance. I hope you check it out soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope I'll get to it soon. :)
DeleteI have to say, I'm in the minority on Sandman. I was not impressed at all. :/ I hope you enjoy it though!
ReplyDeleteThanks! We'll see what I happens, I guess. :)
DeleteI would love to read Sandman but my gosh they are so expensive. :(
ReplyDeleteDefinitely planning on using the library for that one. :)
DeleteI love that Holly Black is on this list! <3
ReplyDeleteI gotta catch up! :)
DeleteThe cover of Yesternight is so beautiful. I have only read one Cat Winters novel and really liked it. I definitely want to read more by the author. I haven't read Grave Sight by Charlaine Harris yet either. I like her books as well. I hope you get to all of these some day!
ReplyDeleteI hope I will. Maybe you'll read more Cat Winters. :)
DeleteOh Heroes of Olympus is amazing! The series just gets better with each book! It's probably tied as my favourite Rick Riordan series with Percy Jackson. Trials of Apollo is looking to be equally good, I like it far better than Magnus Chase and Kane Chronicles so hopefully you can get to both of them soon! :)
ReplyDeleteGood to know! :)
DeleteI'm behind on a lot of Riordan books, but I did read The Lost Hero and I really ended up loving that series!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it - I've heard a lot of great things. :)
DeleteOh I hope you get to these soon! Tithe is on my TBR.
