Top 5 Books I Don’t Talk About Enough

There are the books we talk about all the time, endlessly, to anyone who’ll listen (and even some who won’t.) And then there are books that we absolutely loved, but never seem to come up in conversation. They easily slip our minds when coming up with lists of top books, despite great they really are. And those are the books we’re talking about in this week’s edition of Shanah’s Top 5 Tuesday.

 

Foundryside
by Robert Jackson Bennett

The characters, the heist plot-line, and the magic system. THE MAGIC SYSTEM! Can’t wait for more from this series and this author.

 

Station Eleven
by Emily St. John Mandel

This book gives some incredible insights to our world and will have you asking yourself some questions about what’s truly important.

 

Grim Lovelies
by Megan Shepherd

There’s me and Meeghan and… that’s about it. We love this book, even though we’re two of the very few people on the planet shouting from the rooftops about it. It’s Cinderella meets Harry Potter and it’s incredible.

 

The Bear and the Nightingale
by Katherine Arden

This book gave me my very first glimpse into Russian folklore and I loved it. Nothing will stop me from returning to read the rest of this series.

 

They Both Die at the End
by Adam Silvera

This is another read that makes you question what’s important in life. Makes you think while feeling all the feels. Simply fantastic.

Fun fact about this post: I chose to write this post over going to bed early. We’ll see if it was the right decision.

  1. I really need to read foundryside, I think Ib would really love it!

  2. I am in love with your list! I haven’t read Foundryside yet though – waiting for the cheaper paperback to be released lol. But I haven’t heard a single person say a bad word about it. And I almost added They Both Die At The End to my list as well. I always forget to talk about it but every time I see the cover I remember how much I loved it!

  3. I really want to read Grim Lovelies. It sounds great, but I never seen it anywhere! I might have to get it online.

    I love Station Eleven and The Bear and the Nightingale.

  4. YES!! GRIM LOVELIES!! My copy of Midnight Beauties came in the mail this week and I WANT TO READ IT IMMEDIATELY… I just…need to finish some other books first?! (halp me!!) (also, thanks for the tag, Joe – I will continue to scream about this book with you, forever 💕)
