Top Ten Tuesday: Spring Books



This week we are looking ahead to books we want to read this spring. Since so many great books are being published this spring that I have been waiting for, my list will come from those, so here we go:

Top Ten Books On My Spring To Read List

1.  Insurgent by Veronica Roth ~ Out May 1st, 2012
I've been waiting for this book since I read Divergent in one day last August! I can't wait to see what comes Tris and Four's way next. 

2. Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore ~ Out May 1st, 2012 (this will be a very good day book wise)
Ok, so technically I still need to read Fire (it's sitting on my shelf), but Graceling wowed me. I read the 1st chapter online for Bitterblue and my expectations are high!

3. Out of Sight, Out of Time by Ally Carter ~ March 13th, 2012 (yay!! It's being shipped to me now)
The last in the Gallagher Series (sniffle), I have loved everything about these books, the covers, the girls, the spying, the boys, just everything. I will be sad to see it end but I'm enjoying her new series, Heist Society. 

4. Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers ~ Out April 3rd, 2012
A first book in a new series by an author I have never read. The cover for this book and the descriptions on goodreads has me hooked. Go, check it out and join me in pre-ordering!

5. Fear by Michael Grant ~ Out April 3rd, 2012 
I have stuck with the poor kids of Perdido Beach through Gone, Hunger, Lies, and Plague. Bring it on Fear!

6. City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare ~ Out May 8th, 2012
Cassandra Clare just continues to get better and better with each book she writes. Clockwork Prince has been my favorite so far but we will see after this comes out. Poor Jace, no one deserves a vacation more than him...

7. The Serpent's Shadow by Rick Riordan ~ Out May 1st, 2012 (May 1st is going to kill my wallet!)
The end of the Kane Chronicles (I hear it's only supposed to be a trilogy) I have enjoyed learning more about the Egyptian Gods. I haven't connected quite as well with Sadie and Carter as I did with Percy, Annabelle and Grover, but I am excited to see how this one ends!

8. Revived by Cat Patrick ~ Out May 8th, 2012 
Another first book in a new series by an author I have never read before. The premise is new and exciting to me- the main character has died several times but is a test subject for a new drug that brings her back. Color me intrigued...

9. Croak by Giana Damico ~ March 20th, 2012
Another book on it's way to me that will be brand new. I had to get this when I read the preview and saw the cover. It looks on the darker side and I'm really hoping that Lex's voice will be slightly snarky and sarcastic.  

10.  The Girl in the Clockwork Collar ~ May 22nd, 2012
I'm in the middle of the Girl in the Steel Corset and really enjoying it, so I am going to have to go ahead and pre-order this one. Plus I love steampunk! A new obsession of mine...
