Top Ten Tuesday: 2015 Releases I Didn't Get To


hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.

Okay, so there are way more than just 10 books released in 2015 that I meant to read.  Some of these I'd even preordered and then didn't get to.  I'm going to try and pair it down to 10 that I really wanted to read.  Here we go.

1. The Cemetery Boys by Heather Brewer - This one sounded so interesting.  I've always been interested in cemeteries but had never read a book with one in it.  This book was high on my list.  I don't know what happened.

2. Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard - After a year of so many books, I just didn't get to it.  I got this book for Christmas though, so I've got no excuse anymore.

3. The Sin Eaters Daughter by Melinda Salisbury - This one was going to be so good and then I didn't read it.  There are so many books in the world!


4. Made You Up by Francesca Zappia - The concept of this book sounds so interesting and I really like the cover, but I didn't get to it.  I didn't use the library that much this year, so that greatly hinders the amount of new books I get to read.

5. Rook by Sharon Cameron - Okay, so I preordered this book, which means I had no excuse.  However, I somehow managed not to read it.  (Are you seeing the pattern?)

6. A Madness So Discreet by Mindy McGinnis - I didn't know this book existed until I received it in an OwlCrate box but it looks so good.  It's definitely going to be read in 2016.


7. Soundless by Richelle Mead - I also got this one in an OwlCrate box and didn't get around to it.  I love getting books every month, but they sure do pile up!

8. Illuminae by Amy Kaufman and Jay Kristoff - This just didn't pan out, but it's relatively new still and I'm working on it!


9. The Rose Society by Marie Lu - I had some issues with sequels this year, and I just didn't get to so many of them.  This unfortunately was one of them.

10. Ice Like Fire by Sarah Raasch - See above book.

11. A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab - V.E. Schwab has just been put on the back burner altogether in 2015.  I was going to read so many of her books, but never fear, 2016 will be her year.

  1. Illuminae made my list this week too - I thought I was like the only blogger left that hadn't read it yet - you've just made me feel better LOL! I could have added Soundless, Red Queen and Sin Eater's Daughter too but then I'd have had way more than 10 on my list XD I also still need to read Snow Like Ashes, Young Elites…gah! So many books, so little time. I can definitely recommend ADSoM though, which was a 5-star read for me! I hope you can get to all of these this year Alex xx

  3. I can definitely recommend ILLUMINAE, it was one of my favorite books in 2015!

    I also want to read A MADNESS SO DISCREET soon, I originally planned to read it during last year's Halloween season but unfortunately didn't find the time…
