This week's top ten Tuesday topic is the top ten most intimidating books.
1) Game of Thrones- George R.R. Martin.
The size of this book is intimidating
2) Dragonfly in Amber- Diana Gabaldon.
I am afraid it won't live up my expectations, the first book left me begging for more Jamie.
3) Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell- Susanna Clarke
Another big book i am excited/nervous to read
4) The Last Song- Nicholas Spark
Afraid it won't live up to the hype but it looks really good.
5) Fall of Giants- Ken Follett
Size and and anticipation. I consider Ken Follett to be one of my favorite authors and if I am afraid to be disappointed.
6) In The Shadow of Blackbirds- Cat Winters
The premise sounds super interesting but I am afraid I will be the odd one who does not love this book.
7) When You Were Here- Daisy Whitney
I loved The Mockingbirds so so much. I am afraid I will compare this book to The Mockingbirds.
8) The Demon King- Cinda Williams Chima
Scared of not loving this series.
9) Blood Red Road- Moira Young
Heard mixed things and I am afraid of not loving it after waiting to read it for so long.
10) Beautiful Creatures- Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
Big + hype= scared to read but curious.
Two books I was afraid to read but broke down and read and absolutely loved were;
1) Shadow and Bone- Leigh Bardugo (THE DARKLING. READ THIS NOW)
2) The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian - Sherman Alexie. (This is a book everyone needs to read, it is a banned book and it made me almost cry. I was seriously tearing up at some parts. I have so much love for this book and I am so sad I waited until this year to read it.
I got the second book in the Game of Thrones series in my list. I somehow managed to go through the first one and loved it but can't seem to read the second one.
