Happy Tuesday! Starting a new series can be daunting. I started the Game of Thrones books over a year ago and am still working my way (slowly) through book 5. It has taken up more than 100 (a lot more than 100 actually) hours of my life so far. Still, there is almost nothing better than getting into a new series. When I love a book, I am hugely excited to be able to keep engaging with the story in future books. Here are the top ten newish (I think they are all 2012 or later) series that have been catching my eye lately. Let me know yours in the comments!
Thank you to The Broke and the Bookish for hosting this weekly book meme.
THE RAVEN CYCLE. YES. READ IT. Now. What are you doing? Now, I said! 😉
I know. I’ve loved all of Stiefvater’s other books. I don’t know how I haven’t gotten to this one yet.
Really great choices! I definitely want to start The Fifth Wave too! I’ve read such great reviews. I hope we both love it!
Here are my Top Ten!
Yeah, it’s been on the bestseller list for so long I figure that it must be good.
Great list! I see a lot of series that have been on my radar – especially The Raven Cycle and the Once Upon a Crime Family series.
I don’t know if it is just the clever pun in the title, but I am getting super excited for the Once Upon a Crime Family series to come out.
The Raven Cycle is awesome. I will be impatiently waiting for the third book to arrive.
My TTT
I can’t believe I haven’t read that one yet. Must to get on that.
Shadow and Bone made my list, too. The Raven Boys was fairly good, but I was disappointed by the second book. That series is starting to feel really dragged out.
Yeah, I loved the Shiver series and then felt so so about The Scorpio Races, so I’m not sure how I will feel about Raven Boys.
My Life Next Door is amazing!! And The Raven Cycle made my list too!! I also really like Kieran Scott/Kate Brian. I would probably read Only Everything even though gods and goddess books haven’t worked out for me so far 😦
My TTT
Great picks. I highly recommend My Life Next Door! ❤ Such a wonderful book. I also really enjoyed These Broken Stars and Under the Never Sky. I can't wait to start The 5th Wave and Daughter of Smoke and Bone, I've heard so many amazing things about those. I hope you can get to some of these soon 🙂 TTT.
Shadow and Bone is one of my favorites. 🙂
These Broken Stars! And … omg The Raven Boys!! That’s my favourite series of ever, but I also have a very special place in my bookish soul for These Broken Stars. I’m ridiculously excited for the sequel coming out!! HUZZAH!!
Here’s my TTT!
I highly, highly suggest The Raven Boys. It was fantastic! Here’s my review of it.
