We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is Books On My Spring 2019 TBR. I don’t usually make a TBR for myself as I can never hold myself to it. But I do have a couple of books I plan on reading in the next couple of months. Hopefully I can actually manage to get to all of these. Lets take a look at them!
1. Red, White & Royal Blue – Casey McQuiston
I got an eArc of this one through Netgalley and I can hardly stop myself from starting it right this second. After seeing a couple of raving reviews this was on my radar and I had to try and get a copy through Netgalley. Luckily the publisher was kind enough to grant me access. While I’m not the biggest romance fan, this one just sounds like the best one I could ever want. I plan on reading it in April and it will probably be the start of April haha.
2.The Devouring Gray – Christina Lynn Herman
I hardly ever preorder books but I’ve got this one preordered since the beginning of the year. After seeing an early review by SuperSpaceChick I knew this was one for me. The synopsis sounds intriguing enough and look at that cool cover! Hopefully this will live up to my expectations.
3&4.Legendary & Finale – Stephanie Garber
I haven’t read Legendary yet but I preordered Finale yesterday. All three of the books in this series have a really cool naked hardback in the UK edition. So I decided I had to get book 3 as soon as possible. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Caraval but almost everyone says Legendary is better. So I’m trusting all of you and hope I will enjoy Legendary better so I have an excuse for buying Finale haha.
5.A Curse So Dark and Lonely – Brigid Kemmerer
While this one sounded interesting I wasn’t really planning on buying it to be honest. However, I’d seen a couple of very positive reviews and my friend Melissa managed to convince me to get it. Candyce and I plan on reading it next month as the author will visit the facebook group TBR & Beyond.
6.LIFEL1K3 – Jay Kristoff
As you could see yesterday, I got LIFEL1K3 for my birthday last week. I would love to see what all the hype is about, as I haven’t read a Jay Kristoff book yet (Not including the Illuminae series as thats co-authored). The sequel is coming out relatively soon as well so it will be nice to be caught up by then. Candyce really enjoyed this one so I have high hopes.
7&8.Nevermoor & Wundersmith – Jessica Townsend
Nevermoor has been on my TBR for quite a while. And usually I don’t buy the sequel before reading at least the first book in a series. You never know, you might not like these books at all. But this series comes with a gorgeous naked hardback and Nevermoor was pretty hard to get in that edition. So I wanted to get Wundersmith before it wasn’t available anymore. I plan on reading both of these in May, Candyce and I have a little themed reading month planned which we will reveal soon!
9.The Hate U Give – Angie Thomas
I have been planning on reading this since it came out. But I kept pushing it off and off and now is really the time to pick it up. Candyce and I will probably be buddy reading this next month and I’m excited to finally read this important book. I plan on watching the movie pretty soon after!
10.Wintersong – S. Jae-Jones
A couple of Candyce and my friends are planning on doing a buddyread for this one in the next couple of weeks. We all had this one on our TBR and another friend just finished it and urged us to read it as well. I have seen some very mixed reviews so I’m excited to make up my own mind. It will also be fun to read it with so many friends!
So these are 10 books I have on my Spring TBR. This might actually be something I can achieve! But I won’t hold myself to it, as I like to read whatever I’m interested in at that moment. Have you read any of these? Or do you plan on reading them? Let me know in the comments!
THE HATE YOU GIVE SHOULD BE REQUIRED. IT IS AMAZING. My TTT Spring list

Haha okay okay you convinced me 😉
Red, White and Blue does look super cute!
I really like the cover! And the synopsis sounds like the most adorable thing ever <3
I pre-ordered Finale too, and I have an ARC of The Devouring Gray (I think that’s the next book I’m reading) so we’ll be reading some of the same things this spring!

YAY! I hope you’ll love The Devouring Gray, can’t wait to read your review.
I still need to read Legendary as well even though I pre ordered Finale haha. But those naked hardcovers. Can’t pass on those, to have a matching set. And Nevermoor is great. I just got wondersmith and as soon as I finish my current arc I am diving into that one.
Wintersong is a great read. 🙂

Haha yes there is no way I can pass up covers like that and I hate non-matching series so it was simply a must! Enjoy Wundersmith! Hope you’ll love it 🙂
I’m excited for Wintersong! It sounds like it will be different from most YA fantasy 🙂
Red, White, and Royal Blue is on my list too! I also really want to read Nevermoor. It looks like so much fun.

Yay, hope we’ll both love Red, White & Royal Blue and Nevermoor!
I personally wasn’t a massive fan of either A Curse So Dark and Lonely, or Wintersong but hopefully you will like them better. I did love Legendary though and am super excited for Finale. And I’m also very excited for The Devouring Gray!

I’m sorry to hear that! But unfortunately we can’t love all the books. Hopefully I’ll at least enjoy them 🙂
Good to hear you loved Legendary, I’m getting more and more excited to pick it up!
And yes, I’m super excited for The Devouring Gray 😀
I hope you enjoy The Hate You Give! I’ve also been meaning to read it for a long time but still haven’t gotten to it 🙂

Thank you! I just keep putting it off haha, my expectations are HIGH and I’m kinda scared for all the feels 😉
I hope you enjoy The Hate U Give. I haven’t seen the movie yet, but the book was great.

Thank you! I don’t think I’ve seen one negative review for it so hopefully I’ll love it!
The Devouring Gray sounds so good! I haven’t heard that much about it but the premise was enough for me to decide that I really need to get to it as soon as it comes out. And I can’t wait for Red, White and Royal Blue as well.
Great list!
Acqua recently posted…Review: A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine
Same! I think I’ve only heard about it from SuperSpaceChick but that combined with the synopsis was enough for me to preorder it haha. And Red, White & Royal Blue sounds so so cute!!
DEVOURING GRAY definitely sounds good. I don’t read a lot of Fantasy, but that is one that I think I’d like!! Great list!!
Michelle @ Pink Polka Dot Books recently posted…Top Ten Tuesday– 2019 Spring TBR
Thank you! I think it will be light on the fantasy from what I can gather from the synopsis so I hope you’ll enjoy it!
I hope you enjoy The Hate U Give! It’s definitely one of my favourites 🙂 And I really want to read Lifelike too. I’ve read Stormdancer and Kinslayer by Jay Kristoff, and I love how he writes his worlds.

Everyone seems to love The Hate U Give so even though I’m not big on contemporary I’m pretty sure I’ll end up really enjoying it 🙂 Hope we both enjoy LIFEL1K3!!
Ha, I’m really bad at sticking to TBRs, too, so you’re not alone!
I’m looking forward to The Devouring Gray, too. I managed to get an eARC, but I really want to order a physical copy, because it’s just such a gorgeous book! Dying to read A Curse So Dark and Lonely, too.
I read Wintersong and loved it (though, I enjoyed Shadowsong even more, too, so that’s something to look forward to if you enjoy the first one). Hope you like it!
Sammie @ The Writerly Way recently posted…Upcoming Releases I’d Sell My Soul To Read
Haha, happy to hear I’m not alone in this!
That’s so exciting you got that eARC, can’t wait to read your review. And I’n happy to hear you enjoyed Wintersong that much, definitely makes me more excited 😀
A Curse so Dark and Lovely as a beautiful cover, I’m such a sucker for good covers. I remember seeing Jay Krisoff’s new book a bit ago, I hope you enjoy it!
My Top Ten
Thank you! yes that cover is stunning! I’m for sure a sucker for pretty covers as well 😀
I’m not very good at sticking to lists either. I’m such a mood reader! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Agreed! I just want to pick up whatever I feel like haha
I bought THE HATE YOU GIVE when it came out, but I still haven’t read it. Shame on me! I hope we both love it when we get to it.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
Haha, I know how you feel! <3 fingers crossed we’ll love it!
The Hate U Give, absolutely! I’ve got a copy of that sitting on my shelf that I’m super eager to pick up this spring 🙂 Great list!
