An ordinary man can... surround himself with two thousand books... and thenceforward have at least one place in the world in which it is possible to be happy. ~Augustine Birrell
Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Reads From the Past Three Years
I've decided to jump on board with Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week the topic is: top ten favorite books from the past three years.
Hmmm, as a mostly YA reader I can't say I'm interested in a majority of these but I do have White Space on my TBR! I'll have to move it up, there aren't a lot of YA books with dark concepts!
So can we say that you're definitely into the "dark" reads right now? LOL
I have not read any of these. I have heard of most of them. And a few are on my list. I'm not even going to try the Game of Thrones thing - well, I might listen to them. My hubby read them years ago and then got frustrated and stopped. This is what he said to me - everyone dies. And then you like some more characters and they die. And, and, and. He won't even watch the TV adaptation, so I haven't seen it. Ha!
Great list! I'm currently reading A Game of Thrones and White Space so I'm glad to see them BOTH on your list! That's super awesome. I can't wait to check out their sequels. :) I'm a new follower! Krystianna @ Downright Dystopian
Kaniesha, did you see she's giving away a copy as part of the Last List Blog Hop posts I have here: http://nomoregrumpybookseller.blogspot.com/2015/03/last-list-blog-hob-q-with-ilsa-j-bick.html
Kay - I read a lot of everything else, but I'm pretty much always into "dark" reads. They're just so fun! Re GoT, everyone does die. I think others might be taking their cue from GRRM now, too, 'cause I'm noticing a lot of "main" characters getting killed off in other shows and books I'm into right now.
