So I literally had NO answers for this week’s theme “Ten Books I Feel Differently About After Time Has Passed“. I think it’s incredibly interesting to see how people’s opinions change over time, but I am extremely stubborn and set in my ways (I blame it on being an Aries) and I honestly can not think of one single book I’ve changed my mind about. Well. For two months back in 2007 I was obsessed with Twilight, but that was over so quickly and I didn’t want to post a TTT with one book 😅. Instead I delved deep into past TTT topics (I scrolled down four or five topics) and found one!
Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created here at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We’d love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!
My Theme: Popular Books I Can’t Believe I Haven’t Read Yet
Covers = Goodreads
Honestly only choosing 10 was really hard because when you’ve been out of the reading scene for almost two years you tend to fall behind. I’ve only been reading regularly again for three months. I do plan on reading ALL of these eventually. Please go easy on me. On second thoughts if there’s a favourite of yours here just yell at me and I’ll probably get to it faster.
The Wrath & The Dawn by Renée Ahdieh – I’m always up for diverse books, but a lot of people I trust have posted negative-ish reviews for this and whilst I rarely let reviews influence my decision to read or not read a book it does make me wary. I definitely want to read it soon though.
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo – I want the hardback of this book with the black pages SO badly. It’s like $26AUD on Book Depository, but if I love the book (I have an ebook) then I think I’m definitely going to buy it. This book sounds so interesting and one of the only reasons why I haven’t read it yet is because I haven’t read The Grisha Trilogy. I actually have a question! Can I read this and still be able to understand everything? And more importantly will I spoil anything in The Grisha Trilogy if I read this first?
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins – Yeah. I haven’t finished The Hunger Games series. Why? Good question. I’ll get back to you. In all honestly though it’s a combination of being spoiled for the entire series (cheers, Tumblr 👍 this was before the movies were even a thing too so I don’t think it was wrong to have expected people to use spoiler warnings), reading slumps and distractions. I will finish it one day.
Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas – This is one I’ve talked about a lot. I am super intimidated by high fantasies and long series. I didn’t enjoy ACOTAR so I’m worried I won’t enjoy this either. That said I am still definitely going to read it and the second book before I make up my mind whether I want to continue or not.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer – This is another one I’ve mentioned a few times. I am excited to get to this. Cinderella retelling mixed with cyborgs? Sign me up. I hope I love this series! I recently found out the last book is 800-ish pages though, which is absolutely terrifying.
The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski – I didn’t even know this book was popular until the final one came out. I picked this up at Target like 2 years ago? It was half a cover buy, but it also sounded interesting. I never read it because of my reading slump and I actually forgot all about it until I started watching BookTube.
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz – You all don’t need to shame me for this one, I’m doing that enough to myself. I can not believe I haven’t read this yet. It sounds so incredibly wonderful and I can’t wait to dive in!
A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab – Another one I’m really excited to read. I saw the cover for A Conjuring of Light this morning and it looked so beautiful.This is definitely going to be a part of my June TBR.
An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir – I wasn’t actually planning on reading this until I started watching BookTube and Blogging. I honestly can’t resist a hyped book. I’m just too curious. I don’t even know too much about this book just that a lot of people love it and everyone is anticipating the sequel.
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak – Please. Judge away. Historical fictions have always intimidated me. I really want to read this though because I love that it’s narrated by death and from things I’ve seen the writing is really beautiful. My sister who never reads has even read this and loved it. If she can do it, so can I!
Bonus: Popular Books/Authors That I Don’t Plan on Reading
• Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon
• Anything written by Colleen Hoover
• Me Before You by Jojo Moyes (probably her other books too)
• Anna and the French Kiss series by Stephanie Perkins (I’m impatiently waiting for her proposed horror novel! I hope that’s still a thing that’s happening!)
• I also feel like I should mention that I’ve only read one Cassandra Clare book and I have no idea when/if I’ll read more.
wonderless reviews 
I love that you changed today’s topic, mainly because I have LOTS to say about the books you put there 😛
I recently read The Wrath and the Dawn, I was kind of scared because of the hype and bad reviews, yet I found it very good! I hope you’ll read it soon, I would love to know if you like this one or not 🙂 It was kind of the same situation for Cinder, yet I loved it, so, READ IT. But yeah, that last 800 something pages book just scares me. I’m not here yet though, so…we can be scared together 😛
Aristotle and Dante and ADSOM were both great books, definitely, so hm, READ THEM ? ❤
Okay so I realize this is bascially me saying : READ THE BOOKS, so, sorry, ahah. ONE more thing (and not me saying read the books, I promise) : I have read ONE Cassandra Clare book as well, ONE, yay! I feel like everyone read her books. It makes me feel less alone, thank you 😛

I’ve only read the first book in the Grisha Trilogy and just started Six of Crows. While having read Smoke & Bone helps with the terminology, so far it really hasn’t impacted my ability to understand what’s happening. It’s in a totally different part of the Grisha universe with different characters.
As for Throne of Glass, you may like it more. If Celaena was touched the way that Feyre was in ACOTAR, she’d either kill them (slowly) or torture them to the brink of death without killing them. FYI though, the first book in the series is a tad slower and focused more on the romance. Definitely not my favorite in the series. 😛 (isn’t that what you want to hear? Sorry!)
I also really want to read TWATD, buuuut I’ve been putting it off. I’m scared that all the hype around it will let me down.

Ooh okay, that’s good to know! I do want to read The Grisha trilogy, I just think I’ll prefer Six of Crows so I want to get to that first, haha.
Haha, I like her! It’s okay, I’ve heard from a lot of people that the first book is the worst of the series and it gets better so I’ll definitely be giving the second on (and maybe third) a chance. I try not to judge a series by the first book unless it’s something I really, really hate lmao.

I haven’t read Six of Crows even though I hear nothing but good things about it. I read The Wrath and the Dawn but didn’t like it… It was a bit too overhyped for me. I haven’t started Cinder even though I own that book and the last one, “Winter.” Throne of Glass is really good, too, and the transformation of the series is great, too. I own An Ember in the Ashes but haven’t started that yet either. I picked up AaDDtSotU but returned it to the library without reading it. I might pick it up again later.
I wasn’t impressed with A Darker Shade of Magic so I just haven’t even bothered picking up the sequel.

I have also read Cinder – I read this last year but I haven’t moved on to the other ones, I enjoyed it but I wasn’t as taken with it as everyone else. I think it got a little too hyped for me, but I should read the others to see 😀

Ahh, I know!

I was fortunate enough to avoid spoilers and then I read it on release day. I guess if you wanna look at the positives you saved yourself a ton of pain and heartache because I don’t think I’ve ever cried as hard in my life as i did when I read that book 😂

I’m so excited for TIS because the final book, The Last Star, is published and rumor has it was really good!
ANYWAYYY, u should definitely read The Winner’s Curse and The Wrath and the Dawn they’re GOOD! TWC is awesome and sooo heartbreaking and I like books that make me cry lol TWATD is also very good, enchanting story, lovable characters. The final books of both series are already published too so you don’t need to wait to finish the whole series 😀 I would recommend Throne of Glass, but I’m not sure if you’re not into ACOTAR… I like ACOTAR so much more than I do TOG. But TOG series indeed get better each book, the second book COM was definitely a winner! and why don’t u plan on reading Anna and the French Kiss??
