Top Ten Tuesday: 10 Most Recent Additions to my Book Collection

Happy Tuesday peeps!

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly post currently hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. It celebrates lovely lists, wonderful books and the bookish community. This week’s topic is Ten Most Recent Additions to My Book Collection or TBR List. I’m doing a mixture of these two prompts, but I want to note that there’s quite a bit of correlation with the new books and the stuff I’ve recently added to my To Be Read stuff.

It’s been awhile since I’ve participated in this post. I don’t have a particular reason why I stopped; I guess I just wasn’t feeling it for a while. Anyway, on with the post!

  1. The Wren in the Holly Library by K.A. Linde: Recent acquisition, but not so recently added to my TBR.
  2. A Crown of Ivy and Glass by Claire Legrand: A recent addition to my book collection, as well as recently officially added to my To Be Read pile.
  3. A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallero: Recently collected, but it’s been on my TBR for a bit.
  4. Kill the Farm Boy by Delilah S. Dawson & Kevin Hearne: A book I recently obtained, and it was on my immediate TBR for a bit, but now I’m not as sure. So it’s technically on the back burner.
  5. Shards of Earth by Adrian Tchaikovsky: I saw this and got it ’cause it looked interesting. Not quite in my immediate To Be Read stuff, though.
  6. Piranesi by Susanna Clarke: Recently acquired, but also already read. I just loved the book so much I wanted to own it.
  7. This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone: A book I finally obtained, but has been on my TBR for some time.
  8. The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab: Once again, a book I’ve already read, but one that I loved and wanted to own.
  9. The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie: Recent acquisition, and somewhat more recently added to my TBR as well.
  10. House of Sky and Breath by Sarah J. Maas: A book I finally recently collected. It’s in a weird position on my TBR, because I still need to read the first book in this series before this one.

What books have you recently added to your collection? Have they been on your TBR for a while, or are they new to that, too? What books are you looking to add to both in the future?

As always, thanks so much for reading, and I hope that you have an amazing day/night!

See ya ~Mar

WWW Wednesday: 11/13

It’s been a few weeks since I last participated, but I’m reading something on a Wednesday again, so… yeah.

WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme that used to be hosted at A Daily Rhythm, but has been taken over by Sam @ Taking on a World of Words. Now, without further ado, let’s get into the 3 Ws!

The 3 Ws of WWW Wednesday:

What are you currently reading?

What did you recently finish reading?

What do you think you’ll read next?

The Thing I’m Currently Reading

Skyshade by Alex Aster

CURRENT STATUS: 2%

CURRENT FEELS: 😈 (I’m so looking forward to this trainwreck – will it retroactively make the first two books even worse, I wonder?)

The Thing I Most Recently Finished Reading

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation (MDZS) by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

☆★ Star rating is for all the entire story as a whole, not each individual volume. Also, haven’t posted a review yet, lol (though to be fair I just finished it). It’s coming eventually though! ★☆

The Thing(s) I Might Read Next

  • The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie: I’ve wanted to read more Leckie ever since I read Lake of Souls a few months ago. I’ve already acquired this book, and am definitely planning on reading it before the end of the year at least.
  • House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas: I’ve had this book for several months now, and it’s been on my TBR for about the same amount of time. My cousins were also planning on reading Crescent City as of Christmas of last year and I kind of want to discuss it with them, so I’d like to read at least the first book before Christmas.
  • The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie: This series has been on my radar for years, but as with most popular high fantasy series, I’ve been wary about reading it (mostly because I’ve DNF-ed quite a few of them – I’m looking at you A Song of Ice and Fire (got to book two), The Name of the Wind and The Way of Kings). But I’m thinking of giving it a real shot, and am hoping to read it before the year ends.

What books has everyone been reading lately? What have you thought of them? What are you thinking of reading next?

Anyway, thank you to everyone for reading, and I hope that you have a great day/night!

See ya ~Mar
