Top Ten Tuesday (7): Books for Non-readers
Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Who doesn’t like to make lists?!?!?! They make life easy! And fun!!!! And its always a never ending topic!!!!
Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists!
So this week’s top ten are: Top Ten Books I'd Recommend To Someone Who Doesn't Read X (for example, if you are a YA blogger you might pick 10 YA books for ppl who don't read YA or if you read classics maybe 10 classics that those who don't typically read classics might read! Or you could get more specific).
Well this all depends on the person. There are so many great books out there that I feel everyone should read, however some might not be for everyone. I have a comfort zone when it comes to reading, but lately I have been blasting through that. I think for this list that I will give you books to help with the comfort zone thing, ones that if you aren’t sure about a genre you might try this one. They are easy reads, WONDERFUL books and might get you out of your comfort zone and discover something new! These are all along the lines of YA.
Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling- This is such a wonderful book and
easy to read. It’s not to scary for someone who hasn’t read before and it has
already done a great job of getting more people to read!
Dystopian- Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi -This book is
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good!!!!!! I'm not one to always read dystopian but this
doesn’t really have a very heave dystopian feel to it. It’s a different read but it’s so beautiful!
And Adam, OH SWOON!
Something different- Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty ShadesDarker by E.L. James- Now if you are an older young adult (over 18) and felt that
some of your fave books never go there (always cute the pages of with juicy
stuff) this thy this book. But warming its explicit. But SOOO enjoyable!!!!
Check out my review for Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades Darker!
Aliens- Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout- Now a lot of people
do like aliens or think ooo it’s little green men with probing fingers! But let
me tell you, you will not be thinking that at the end of this book (actually
you wont by the time Katy opens the door and sees Daemon, actually thinking
back I think my brain went blank, RAWR!!!!!)
I love any book by Jennifer and this one is just so delicious!
Contemp- Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire and Cross My Heart
by Katie Klein- Now Beautiful Disaster sparked my LOVE for all things contemp
but it can be an intense read! It’s beautiful, crazy and a totally hot mess at
times but it’s soooooooo good! But if you want something sweeter, check out
Cross My heart, its tame, sweet and might give you a cavity. If your not sure about contemp, try them out!
Read my review for Cross My Heart!
Historical Paranormal- The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare-
I have not always been one to read historical works, but I do LOVE
history. Now if I could buy a copy of
Clare for everyone in the world I would.
Her books are just so delicious!!!! And old world London is just amazing
written by Clare. See my review for Clockwork Prince.
Wolves- Nightshade by Andrea Cremer- Now I have never been one to
like wolves (yes yea I'm a team Edward) but this book makes me want to be a
wolf girl (esp. because of Ren, OH SWOON!) It’s beautifully written, has some
great action and leaves you wanting more!
See my review for Nightshade.
Standalone- Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver- I really don’t know
how to categorize this book aside from AWESOME! But this is just a beautiful
novel from an amazing author! It makes you cry, makes you think and its just so
beautiful!
Angels- Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick- If you don’t know about
reading angels pick up this book! It’s just delightful and there is this super
SEXY mmmmmworthy guy named Patch (double swoon!) It’s different and fun and
just ohhhhh patch! Sorry that’s about all I can do when thinking about this
book.
That’s all I have for now. There are always more awesome books
and authors that I want to share with the world. Guess that’s one reason I started blogging!!!
The literary world is so vast and filled with wonder it’s a place that everyone
should visit once in their life!
Enjoy!
