“Top Ten Tuesday” is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish!
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is the Top Ten Series I Would Like To Start.
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic was all too easy for me to complete. Seriously. Is there such a thing as too much choice? Because that’s precisely the problem I faced when I sat down to choose only ten series I’ve missed out on thus far. And I think – Okay, I know! – that some people might find a few of my final selections shocking. No, I have never read Stephanie Perkins’ universally beloved Anna and the French Kiss series (Please don’t kill me, Andi!), or J.R. Ward’s steamy Black Dagger Brotherhood series, despite hearing nothing but wonderful things about it from both Alexa and Kelly. I know, I know. I’m the worst. But that’s all about to change (Hopefully? Maybe?) because I’m tired of feeling like I’m missing out. Want to lend a hand? Let me know in the comments which of these ten series I just have to begin first!
As always, these choices are listed in no particular order.
1) Splintered by A.G. Howard (The Splintered series)
2) Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally (The Hundred Oaks series)
3) Not A Drop To Drink by Mindy McGinnis (The Not A Drop To Drink series)
4) Alice In Zombieland by Gena Showalter (The White Rabbit Chronicles series)
5) Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (The Vampire Academy series)
6) Dark Lover by J.R. Ward (The Black Dagger Brotherhood series)
7) Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo (The Grisha series)
8) Throne Of Glass by Sarah J. Maas (The Throne Of Glass series)
9) Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins (The Anna and the French Kiss series)
10) Burn For Burn by Jenny Han & Siobhan Vivian (The Burn For Burn series)

Alice in Zombieland sounds like a great pick for Halloween! And Throne of Glass … I still need to read that one :p

I really enjoyed Shadow and Bone and Not A Drop To Drink. I’m starting Throne of Glass today. I’m excited to see if it lives up to the hype!

I seriously gasped out loud when I saw THRONE OF GLASS. Oh my goodness. You must read that! Read it first, then go to the spectacularly fluffy ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS for even more feels. (Those are two of my favorites series and ahh, read them!)

I’m working through the Vampire Academy series right now and I just adore those books. They’re so much fun and they do have that bit of darkness, but Rose’s snarkiness and the humor of the books cut through it. They’re just so enjoyable.
Not a Drop to Drink is one very intense book. It’s so heavy and so bleak. And the ending will crush you. Because of how depressing it can get, I still haven’t read the companion novel, but I know I will some day.
I recently read Stephanie Perkins’ books over the summer and what a surprise! I’m not really a romance kind of girl, especially not the light and fluffy variety, but these books just sneaked up on me. I feel like they genuinely are universally appealing and loveable.
(PS, once again, your graphics are beautiful!)

You’ve actually got several series on here that I’ve started and not completed because THEY’RE not completed but I’ve enjoyed Burn For Burn and all of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books so far (SO MUCH). Pretty much everything else up here, I want to start too! I considered adding the Miranda Kinneally series but in order to narrow mine down I only put finished series up. I seriously need to start that one, though – everyone loves it. I love this list!

I haven’t read all of the series from you list but here are those I have read in recommended reading order: Throne of glass, BDB, VA, Alice in Zombieland. In the end, they were all very good.

Great list! Shadow and Bone also made it on to my list, I’m pretty keen to read that one – it’s just a bit tricky finding it in my little corner of Australia. Throne of Glass would’ve made my list had this topic been done a month ago, I’ve started it and I’m really enjoying it! As for Anna and the French Kiss, it’s definitely one of my favourites 🙂

I won’t kill you. I will just insist that you read Anna because my life goal is to get EVERYONE to read it. Plus I think you will LOVE it, so do it.
Also the Kenneally series and Maas series are must reads. And we should do Shadow and Bone together as I need to read it too.

Ooh great list! You are in for a treat with these series. I’ve read: VA, ANNA, and TOG and love them all to pieces. Get reading- I can’t wait to hear what you think!
PS. Adorable fall theme 🙂

Don’t worry, I’ve only read two of the series you mentioned. I’ve read all three Anna and the French Kiss books (so good!) and the first Alice in Zombieland book (but I do want to read the rest, I just haven’t gotten there).
The Grisha series also made it on my TTT this week, and I am curious about the Throne of Glass books. Or and Catching Jordan. And the Blackdagger Brotherhood.
There are JUST SO MANY BOOKS I want to read! I need more time. Well, I guess we all would love that.

Ohhhh Dark Lover…the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Prepare yourself for serious heat and elevated heart rates! 😉
Shadow and Bone, Throne of Glass and Anna are also my own personal MUST reads. SOOOO good!
Sarah recently posted…Top Ten…New Series I Really Need to Read
Great picks. There are quite a few of this series that I really want to read myself – Va, Grisha and Catching Jordan especially, they look so good. THRONE OF GLASS!!! I am obsessed with that series, it gets better with each new book. I hope you can get to some of these soon 🙂 TTT.

Great selection! You’ve included a lot of books I completely forgot to include in my own list. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Vampire Academy so I should really read it soon!
