I’ve just added these books to my TBR list within the past two weeks (or so) – after going on a Goodreads spree, stalking everyone else’s bookshelves. 🙂 And one of the (many) things I love about the online book blogging community is the recommendations. I really enjoy reading reviews, and they often influence my reading decisions. So many books, so little time, am I right? So it’s my pleasure to reference the reviews that encouraged me to add the following books to my TBR list.
1. Stitching Snow by R.C. Lewis – Oct. 14, 2014 – Read a great review by Shae Lit, AND it’s a fairy-tale retelling. *score*
2. Princess of Thorns by Stacey Jay – Dec. 9, 2014 – Has pretty high star ratings from my Goodreads friends, which means it definitely has promise.
3. Love, Lucy by April Lindner – Jan. 27, 2015 – I generally enjoy books about traveling – and falling in love. *winks*
4. The Conspiracy of Us (The Conspiracy of Us #1) by Maggie Hall – Jan. 13, 2015 – Stumbled across this book on Goodreads and realized I’d seen it at my local library. So obviously that’s a sign?
5. The Memory Key by Liana Liu – March 3, 2015
6. The Start of Me and You by Emery Lord – March 31, 2015 – I really enjoyed Open Road Summer, and I recently read a great review by Awkwordly Emma.
7. Lies I Told (Lies I Told #1) by Michelle Zink – April 7, 2015
8. Becoming Jinn (Becoming Jinn #1) by Lori Goldstein – April 21, 2015 – Received a 4-star review from Taylor Lynn, and I’m looking forward to her review for her thoughts.
9. The Game of Love and Death by Martha Brockenbrough – April 28, 2015
10. The Wrath and the Dawn (The Wrath and the Dawn #1) by Renee Ahdieh – May 12, 2015

My Top Ten Tuesday
Yes, it totally does! I love the purplish/red color scheme. It sounds like an interesting read and I’m excited it’s coming out in April. Thanks for commenting, Christine! 🙂
I have to check out Stitching Snow, since I love fairy tale retellings!
Great list!
Me too! I think retellings are becoming more and more popular, and I love it. Stitching Snow is a retelling of Snow White, which is something I haven’t seen before. Thanks for commenting, Amanda! 🙂
Oooh DEFINITELY read The Conspiracy of Us! IF you like traveling then this will give you a serious case of wanderlust. It sure as hell did for me! I’ll have to check out Love, Lucy asap. Traveling and falling in love is a magical combination 🙂

Oh, good, I’m glad you liked it! I just picked up a copy and I’m really excited – I love spy/conspiracy/political intrigue novels. Also, Goodreads promises it’s “perfect for fans of Ally Carter,” which I definitely am. And I DO love traveling! Love, Lucy is about finding love in Rome, and I think that’s probably the best kind of travel/romance combination there is. 😉 Thanks for commenting, Mariah!
Okay. I think fate delivered me to this post because I want every single one of these books. I hadn’t seen Love, Lucy before, but I love books set in other countries! Hopefully Italy plays a big part in it. I don’t think I’ve ever read one set there.

Ha, ha! I’m glad you’ve stumbled upon my corner of the blogosphere 🙂 I’ve had the same experience today, adding SO MANY new books to my Goodreads TBR shelf. I want to read them all. As for Love, Lucy, I hope Italy plays a big role, too, because I traveled there this past summer and it was such an incredible experience. And what better way to relive those memories than by reading?? (Also I didn’t find love in Rome, so I’m hoping to live vicariously through Lucy.) Thanks for commenting, Zoey!
Stitching Snow, Princess of Thrones, and The Conspiracy of Us all sound great!

I know I know!! I’ve just gotten my hands on a copy of The Conspiracy of Us but I haven’t started it yet. Looking forward to it, though! Thanks for commenting, Lizzie 🙂
