About the meme:
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish, but is now moved to That Artsy Reader Girl! The read more about this meme, look at this page!
This week’s meme is Books I want in my personal library! I don’t think a top 10 is enough haha, since I lived abroad for a year there are a lot of books that I read from the library (or listened on audio) that I want to own. But let’s narrow it down to the ones I want the most:
- The last magician – Lisa Maxwell (both of them).
- Do you dream of terra two – Temi Oh.
- The fever king – Victoria Lee.
- Dracula – Bram Stoker (Penguin Clothbound edition)
- With the fire on high – Elisabeth Acevedo
- Lady Midnight – Cassandra Clare (whole series).
- Crime and punishment – Fjodor Dostojevski (Russian penguin classic).
- Every heart a doorway – Seanan Mcguire (whole series).
- Binti complete collection – Nnedi Okorafor.
- Talon – Julie Kagawa (whole series).
Just to give a mention, I want all the classics I’ve read in the clothbound edition (I just choose to go with Dracula for this list). And there are also quite a bit of graphic novels that I’ve read on Scribd that I would love to own (like Lumberjanes and Giant days!).
I love the covers of The Fever King and With the Fire on High. I’m a sucker for all of the bright colours ❤ Which book did you enjoy the most from this list?
Ooh that’s a hard question haha.. I think I will have to go with the last magician!
I read CRIME AND PUNISHMENT a looonnnggg time ago and I’m pretty sure I have an old paperback edition around here somewhere … I hope you can snag a copy of your own sometime soon. Classics are usually pretty cheap to buy.Happy TTT!Susanwww.blogginboutbooks.com
Yeah generally they are! I do want to have this nice edition though! But I don’t think it is that expensive! I will check yours out!
I haven’t read many classics. I need to sometime but I always find new releases that end up taking priority I have seen some really beautiful editions of them though. I actually have a copy of Dracula – I brought it to flick through once whilst I was board on a trip – but I’m not a fan of the cover on my version.
Yeah I feel you on that! That’s why I made it a goal to read one classic a month, otherwise I probably wouldn’t read them!
The beautiful editions is definitely one of the reasons why I made this goal haha
With the Fire on High seems to be a popular choice this week, I might need to check it out! <a href=”https://faithfullybookish.com/spotlight/bookshelf-wants-top-ten-tuesdays/”>My TTT</a>
It is such a beautiful book though! I will check yours out!
Lady Midnight would have been on my list as well if I hadn’t caved it bought it as soon as the price went down a little on Amazon, lol! Great list :)Here’s my TTT https://thewordyhabitat.wordpress.com/2019/08/27/10-books-ive-read-that-i-want-on-my-physical-shelf/
Understandable haha, I would have done the same!
Do You Dream of Terra Two looks amazing. I just requested it from the library thanks to your recommendation. My TTT: https://lydiaschoch.com/top-ten-tuesday-books-ive-read-that-id-like-in-my-personal-library/
It is very good! I will check yours out!
Oh these are all great choices! I would like to get the Binti bind-up in a physical copy! It’s lovely.
Yes it is! i actually saw it in a story yesterday, and I was so tempted to buy it!
