Rush (The Game #1) by Eve Silver

I have heard nothing but great things about this so I really want to pick up a copy and read it! It literally screams to me to pick it up because it has such a good synopsis and a high rating on Goodreads. Hard to pass it up.

Before I Die by Jenny Downham

This one was sold to me as being like a John Green novel and while I am hit or miss with his books, I like reading these types of contemporary novels.

The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle #1) by Maggie Stiefvater

Technicallyyyyy I already own this one since I have a copy on my Kobo, butttttt I like this series so much that I want to own them in physical book as well so here it is on my wishlist. I have been contemplating purchasing this one for a while but I think I may get it from my local bookstore (even though the prices are jacked) because I feel like I will be giving back to my little community.

The Here and Now by Ann Brashares

I know I'm not the only one, but I loved The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants series and have wanted to read more by Ann Brashares. This novel has such an intriguing premise so I really want to pick this one up!

DragonSpell (DragonKeeper Chronicles #1) by Donita K. Paul

I love dragons. Everything about them is so so so interesting to me. I love when people expand on dragon mythology or just generally have dragons in their book, so of course I want to read the DragonKeeper Chronicles. I have an entire bookshelf dedicated to books with dragons in them and this one would be a good one to add to it!

Cress (The Lunar Chronicles #3) by Marissa Meyer

This one has been on my wishlist for a while because I have hardcovers of all the rest but can't seem to find one of this one for some reason! Except for like a super expensive copy and as much as I like the series, I don't like it enough to spend $20 on this book when I spent $20 in total on all the other three that I own. If you have a strong desire, you can read my review of Scarlet.

The Queen of Tearling by Erika Johansen

This week's wishlist Wednesday title is one that has been on my wishlist for about a year now since it came out last June. It is said to be a mix of Philippa Gregory (The Tudor Court author) and A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin, so I was like eff yeah I want to read that. (But of course I have not gotten around to it yet). Check it out below!

The Queen of Tearling by Erika Johansen

Goodreads Synopsis
Her throne awaits . . . if she can live long enough to take it.

It was on her nineteenth birthday that the soldiers came for Kelsea Glynn. They’d come to escort her back to the place of her birth – and to ensure she survives long enough to be able to take possession of what is rightfully hers.

But like many nineteen-year-olds, Kelsea is unruly, has high principles and believes she knows better than her elders. Unlike many nineteen-year-olds, she is about to inherit a kingdom that is on its knees – corrupt, debauched and dangerous.

Kelsea will either become the most fearsome ruler the kingdom has ever known . . . or be dead within the week.

Combining thrilling adventure and action, dark magic, mystery and romance, The Queen of the Tearling is the debut of a born storyteller blessed with a startling imagination.

Wishlist Wednesday (3): Dragon Ball: The Complete Illustrations by Akira Toriyama

Dragon Ball: The Complete Illustrations by Akira Toriyama

Today's Wishlist Wednesday book is also one that has been on my wishlist for a while because I asked for it for my birthday this year so I am hoping I do get it. It is
the Complete Illustrations from the Dragon Ball manga by Akira Toriyama. If you don't know what Dragon Ball (or at least Dragon Ball Z) is, then you missed out on an integral part of a childhood and I highly suggest you take three days to binge watch the original series and the "Z" series, but definitely skip the "GT" series.

Wishlist Wednesdays (2) - May 20, 2015

Far From You by Tess Sharpe

Today's wishlist Wednesday book is also one that has been on my wishlist for a while, especially since I am on a buying freeze. It is called "Far From You" by Tess Sharpe and has it all: a recovering addict, murder, and a mystery surrounding that murder.

Goodreads Synopsis

Nine months. Two weeks. Six days.

That's how long recovering addict Sophie's been drug-free. Four months ago her best friend, Mina, died in what everyone believes was a drug deal gone wrong - a deal they think Sophie set up. Only Sophie knows the truth. She and Mina shared a secret, but there was no drug deal. Mina was deliberately murdered.

Forced into rehab for an addiction she'd already beaten, Sophie's finally out and on the trail of the killer—but can she track them down before they come for her?
