Top Ten Tuesday~ Had to Have You; Need to Read You
I’ll be joining Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl for Top Ten Tuesday again this year.
This week’s topic is: Books That You Had to Have, But Still Haven’t Read. This is almost every book on my shelves! But seriously, keeping this to just 10 was not easy!
Always Jane by Jenn Bennett
Built to Last by Erin Hahn
Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld
The Hating Game by Sally Thorne
Lily and the Octopus by Steven Rowley
My Not So Perfect Life by Sophie Kinsella
Rebel Bully Geek Pariah by Erin Jade Lange
Red Rising by Pierce Brown
Side Effects May Vary by Julie Murphy
The Wedding Date by Jasmine Guillory
HLily and the Octopus sounds really good.
I have Red Rising also buried in my TBR. Lily and the Octopus looks cute as well.
I wish you lovely reading when you eventually get to these 🙂

Built to Last was a fun read. The Wedding Date was a decent read. I hope you enjoy them all when you get the chance to read them.
Here’s my TTT for the week: https://readbakecreate.com/the-ten-holiday-reads-on-my-tbr-the-longest/
Ha ha. Same. As soon as I buy a book, I seem to completely forget about it!
Happy TTT!

I know everyone and their mother loved Red Rising but I thought it was just ok and didn’t read the rest of the series. Its probably still worth reading but don’t let the hype make you feel guilty!!!
I’ve read 4 of these. I enjoyed Lily and the Octopus. I was not a fan of The Wedding Date. I think we all have many, many books we could have included today.
I only read The Hating game and My Not So Perfect Life from your list.
