These are the books I’ve placed on my TBR list (but haven’t gotten around to reading yet!) due to multiple recommendations. You may recognize a few of these novels from last week’s TTT (books I’m not sure I want to read). In no particular order:
1. If I Stay by Gayle Forman – I’ve been told this book is on par with Fault in Our Stars (emotionally, at least). Also, I want to see the movie, and so I MUST read the book first.
2. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell – This book has been given so many great recommendations.
3. Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein – I’ve been told countless times I MUST read this book. (I promise, I promise!)
4. Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn – Another MUST-read, according to my writer’s group.
5. Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card – I think people either love this book or hate it. I’ve been told to read it, and I tried, once.
6 – 8. More John Green (An Abundance of Katherines, Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns) – MUST read more novels by John Green.
9. Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige – I’ve been told that if I enjoy retellings (I do) that I MUST read this book.
10. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi – I’ve heard good things!
Have you read these novels? Are they MUST-reads? Share your thoughts!
I’m kind of meh on If I Stay but I’ll agree that Eleanor and Park and Gone Girl are DEFINITE musts! They were both fantastic. Great list, enjoy your reads! 🙂

Hey Amanda! Thanks for the recommendations – I’ve just picked up Gone Girl, and will begin reading that shortly! And I’ll definitely add Eleanor & Park to my TBR list. I can’t ignore all the good things everyone’s said about it. Thanks for commenting, and for following on Twitter! 🙂
I highly recommend anything by Rainbow Rowell. I LOVE her stories! If I Stay was super good (so was the sequel!) I love An Abundance of Katherines and Shatter Me!! Gone Girl was good too 🙂 I need to read more John Green! Code Name Verity is on my TBR list!!
Happy Reading!
My TTT
