Top Ten Tuesdays is a weekly feature created at The Broke and The Bookish.



1. The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater: Because obviously.

2. The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski: I've been waiting on that cliffhanger for a year!

3. The Star-Touched Queen by Roshani Chokshi: This debut has a pretty amazing premise.

4. The Forbidden Orchid by Sarah Biggs Waller: This has been on my list since I read A Mad, Wicked Folly.

5. The Great Hunt by Wendy Higgins: Because monsters. Also, I like the colour pallet of the cover



6. Passenger by Alexandra Bracken: Time travel and the high seas!

7. The Girl From Everywhere by Heidi Heilig: Also time travel and the high seas! (Seriously these two seem to have a lot of shared elements in their premises, and I'm looking forward to see how they differ/ are similar.)

8. Tell the Wind and Fire by Sarah Rees Brennan: After how much I enjoyed Unspoken, I'm looking forward to revisiting her writing.

9. A Tyranny of Petticoats edited by Jessica Spotswood: Featuring a lot of my favourite authors, I've had my eye on this collection since is was Petticoats and Pistols.

10.  Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton: Mostly because desert.

    The Great Hunt sounds (and looks!) fierce. Also "Petticoats" sounds really fun. :)

      The Great Hunt would be my first Wendy Higgins novel (her others just... don't interest me), so I'm hoping its great. I'm kind of weird about anthologies, but I know I have to give this one a try!

      I really do enjoy time and space travel books. I adored Magic Treehouse as a kid...

      It is a pretty great name. It makes me thing of a "murder of crows" or something.

    A lot of people seem to have Passenger. I think it's on my TBR list, but not my TTT. I also keep seeing Rebel of the Sands, but never heard of it before today. Gonna check it out. Thanks!

      Passenger has been really popular this week, I'm really hoping it lives up to the hype. I've been seeing Rebel of the Sands quite a bit this week, it is definitely one of the debuts I'm most looking forward to!
