Hi everyone! Geez, look at me posting 3 times in two day. You’re probably all done with me by now… yeah… sorry. Anyways, I was going to write a list of my favorite books that I’ve read in 2015, but honestly… I can’t really remember. I know, I know, I’m sorry! I haven’t been using Goodreads as much as I should be, so New Year’s Resolution #1: Use Goodreads more often. And also I was in the worst book slump when I started school this year and I feel like I’ve barely read. So I really don’t think that it’s going to be fair if I make a list of books that I don’t really remember and might not have even read. So instead I’m making a list of my Top 5 Must be read books in 2016. Carmel might kill me for this but shhhhhhh. Alright, let’s get started!
5. NEVER ALWAYS SOMETIMES
5. NEVER ALWAYS SOMETIMES
So this has been on my TBR list for so long now. I’m pretty sure if I don’t read it soon it’ll drown itself. It’s supposed to be this cute contemporary about two best friends doing things that they promised they would never do, which includes dating each other. I’m already giggling at how adorable this sounds. So I’m pretty excited to say the least.
4. TO ALL THE BOYS I’VE LOVED BEFORE
Carmel basically knows EVERYTHING. So she always knows which books are the ones that will make you cry of happiness and which ones will kill you. Which means, she’s the best at giving book recommendation. THE BEST. So when she recommended this book to me, I knew I had to read it, but it’s just been sitting on my TBR list slowly decaying away. So I’ve decided that since I didn’t read it in 2015, I MUST READ it in 2016. THe story is about a girl who never had the guts to tell her crushes how she felt about them, so instead she wrote everything down in letters. But one day, somehow, they were all mailed. I’m super excited to read it, and I hear she bakes a lot of cookies so I guess I’ll have start stashing food to eat while I’m reading the book.
3. ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS
3. ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS
So last year in school, I was my language arts class’ librarian, and I remember seeing this book and I thought “pshhh who would want to read this” because I am one of those horrible people that judges a book by it’s cover. I’m sorry! I know! I keep trying not to, but I can’t help it…Anyways, the cover of the book just looked so cheesy to me and I was just like “no”. But then Carmel and everyone else started telling me how good it was, how much their fangirl hearts were dying, how they cried for hours, and ect. And I really do trust and believe that it’s a really good series so here it is. The story is about a girl who’s used to living her regular life in the US but then gets shipped off to Paris for her senior year where she meets the guys of her dreams who just so happens to have a girlfriend. I honestly suck at summaries, so it’s probably a lot more interesting than I’m making it sound.
2. WINTER (Book #4 of the Lunar Chronicles)
2. WINTER (Book #4 of the Lunar Chronicles)
The Lunar Chronicles is definitely one of my favorite series’ of all time. I love how it’s just this huge twist with the old fairy tales and the sci-fi and futuristicness (I know that’s not a real word, but it feels right) of it all just makes it so cool! I know that Winter has been out for a while now, but I haven’t read it yet, because I have this book club enrichment at school and we’re going to be reading it, so I’m waiting for that… even though waiting is painful and the agony of it just makes me want to die.
1. TRIALS OF APOLLO
1. TRIALS OF APOLLO
I’m pretty sure a lot of you saw this coming. But I’m SO EXCITED!!! I can’t wait to see Percy, Annabeth, hopefully Leo and all the others again!! I love how Rick Riordan puts a twist and more contemporary edge to all of these greek myths and I can’t wait to see what else he has up his sleeves. AND DO YOU SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS COVER IS?!?!??!
So these are my Top 5 books that I absolutely MUST read in 2015 - I mean 2016 - GAHHHHHHH I’M NEVER GOING TO STOP MAKING THAT MISTAKEEEE
