Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Books on My Spring TBR

 

I am always adding new books to my TBR list so to keep this list simple, I am focusing on 2016 spring releases that I am excited to read. 

10) United States of Japan by Peter Tieryas

Release Date: March 1

I love the concept of this alternate history - Japan was victorious in World War II and now the United States is patrolled by giant robots.

9) The Paper Menagerie by Ken Liu

Release Date: March 8

A short story collection that is getting rave reviews, Ken Liu is definitely an author I'm excited to read for the first time. 

8) Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton

Release Date: March 8

This desert-based fantasy originally caught by eye because of the gorgeous cover. But after reading the intriguing synopsis about a girl desperate to escape from her small desert town, I'm excited to see what's between the covers.

7) Exit, Pursued by a Bear by E.K. Johnston

Release Date: March 15

I read Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale last year and loved how different and fantastical it was. I'm curious to see how this young adult contemporary novel retells the story.

6) The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski

Release Date: March 29

The final book in the Winner's trilogy. I am so sad to see the series end but I cannot wait to find out what happens to Kestrel and Arin! 

5) When We Collided by Emery Lord

Release Date: April 5

I read Lord's The Start of Me and You just last month and absolutely adored it. Now that she has become one of my auto-buy authors, I just have to check out her new book.

4) The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead

Release Date: April 5

It will be interesting to see how Richelle Mead, who penned the Vampire Academy series, handles writing a completely different genre of fantasy.

3) The Last Star by Rick Yancey

Release Date: May 24

The third and final book in The Fifth Wave series, I'm really excited to see how this epic series ends.

2) The Problem with Forever by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Release Date: May 17

I loved the Lux series that featured super-sexy aliens and am excited to read Jennifer L. Armentrout's new standalone contemporary romance. I'll miss Damon Black, though.

1) A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas

Release Date: May 3

My most anticipated read of the year, I am counting down the days to this sequel to A Court of Thorns and Roses.
