Top Ten Tuesday Forty Four

Top Ten Books I loved but haven't talked about enough

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature/ meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish.  This weeks topic was one I was excited for as I love talking about underrated books and I so I was happy to jump at the chance to talk about some of the books I haven't spoken about anywhere near enough.  And so, enjoy! 

1) The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey - This was one of my favourites from last year and the final book in the series is my most anticipated release for this year, and yet, I still feel as though I have barely spoken about my love for it, particularly online.  Not only do I love the series, but it also pushed me to read more sci-fi, something I am very grateful for.  

2) Half Bad by Sally Green - When I read this book some time last autumn, I really did enjoy it.  And yet, in the months since, I have barely ever spoken about this book to anyone or anywhere, for no reason at all.  It was gripping, unique and just such a good story - and I need to start talking about it an awful lot more.  

3) Just listen by Sarah Dessen - I actually read this one quite early on last year, and yet, I have yet to so much of mention it in anything or to anyone.  Why?!  I really enjoyed this one and ever since reading it I've been wanting to get into more Sarah Dessen, but it has somehow been left out of the limelight - until now.  

4) Wonder by R.J. Palacio - For a book I read in one day, this one strangely gets forgotten when I talk about some of my favourites, or even books I enjoyed.  I loved how heartbreaking yet touching this story was and I plan on rereading it sometime in the future just to relieve the beauty of it.  

5) The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare - Yes, I know that this is a hugely popular series and so clearly alot of people do talk about how much they love it, but personally I really don't think I do.  Despite only having the last two books left to read, I haven't spoken about this amazing series much at all, and so hopefully that will change by the time I make it to the final book so that I can give these books the love they deserve.

  

6) The Geography of You and Me by Jennifer E. Smith - Even after doing a review for this one, I still don't think I have fully shared the love, not only for this book, but for Jennifer E. Smith in general.  I've now read two of hers and I enjoyed them both immensely, with their cute, heartwarming romances and beautiful settings.

  

7) Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist by David Levithan - Despite speaking about how much I love David Levithan as an author, I don't believe I have talked about my most recent read of this all that much, even though I thoroughly enjoyed it.  It combined all the components I love in one of his novels with a brand new story that was funny and sarcastic whilst also being heartwarming and even cute at times.  

8) Ketchup Clouds by Annabel Pitcher - I adore this book to pieces, and, despite talking about it soon after I read it, since it has almost been forgotten.  Granted, I do think I gave it the love it deserved at first, but now it seems to have joined all of these other forgotten gems - and a book like this really shouldn't be forgotten. 

9) Ice Kissed by Amanda Hocking - Yes, I will admit I do talk about Amanda Hocking a fair bit, but this series has almost become lost amongst so many of my other favourites recently.  I loved this second installment in particular as it faster paced, gripping and just all round amazing, even if it isn't perfect.  This is definitely a series that deserves more love than it's getting.

10) It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini - Finally, this is one that I honestly can't remember saying much about to anyone - and yet I loved it.  I adored all the characters and the storyline and I am really annoyed at myself for not speaking up about it more!
