Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature from The Broke and The Bookish.
Good morning!
70 books in for this year, and I must say — I read books that were outside my usual YA genre, and I am surprised that I love ’em. 😀 It pays to take the risk and read something new, yes? I have 3 dystopia, 2 fantasy, and 2 paranormal books in this list.
… Are you ready to fangirl? *winks*

10. The Catastrophic History of You and Me by Jess Rothenberg (sweetest fun.)
9. Boundless by Cynthia Hand (emotionally nerver-wracking.)
8. Arclight by Josin L. McQuein (suspensefully gripping.)
7. Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi (spine-tingling and gratifying.)
6. Eona by Allison Goodman (best sequel to date.)
5. Brother Odd by Dean Koontz (favorite Odd novel so far.)
4. You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me by Sarra Manning (swoon all over the place.)
3. Scarlet by Marissa Meyer (ten times the swoon I expected.)
2. Spark by Amy Kathleen Ryan (even darker and more morbid than Across the Universe IMO.)
1. The History of Love by Nicole Krauss (I am marrying this book. love lost had never been this hopeful, and powerful.)

you’re welcome, Ann! Thanks for dropping by 😉
no problem. and i just noticed, you have the link for the book #2 directed to your #5? or somethings wrong with my connection?
hahaha…im not sure :p
The Catastrophic History of You and Me looks adorable. It’s definitely one that I’m planning on reading.
Scarlet is amazing! And I’ve not read any others on your list but heard great things about most of them. Boundless is sitting on my shelf looking at me waiting for me to gt around to reading it!
Hope you have a great week and find many other fantastic reads during the rest of the year.
Oh Kate, you have to check that out, it’s really something. and Boundless.. better be ready for it before you pick it up and read. 🙂 Enjoy!
Great books, Maria! I’ve had my eye on the Sarra Manning book, and I really enjoyed Boundless too. I miss that series!
I really really loved the ‘Unearthly’ series, they are so amazing! And I’m excited to read ‘You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me’ soon.
Great list!
Are you Team Tucker or Christian? 😉
Great top ten! Boundless is on my list too:)

Yay! Boundless is more or less satisfying as a finale. Thanks 😀
Great list. I am dying to read EON and Cinder, good to know the sequels are pretty awesome too. 🙂
Hi! Yep, both series are really good. Hope you read them soon =) thanks!
Maria! *waves* I love your list! I really should be reading History of Love. And yay for Brother Odd! 🙂
I miss you, Lynai! *big hug*
I am book pushing for The History of Love! and oh yes, Dean Koontz fans unite!
Great top ten! Loved boundless too:)

So many books on here I haven’t read…
that’s fine. I have so many books I haven’t read in other’s lists, too. 🙂
I have yet to start these series except Lunar Chronicles that also made my list. I loved Scarlet, and Cinder was good too.
My TTT
Scarlet! Nice 😀 thanks for stopping by.
oh wow i’ve genuinely not read a single book on this list yet 😀 however, i am actually reading cinder so yeah, i guess scarlet will make it soon!
Move on to Scarlet right after Cinder! It’s very fast-paced. 😀
The C of you and M has been on my shelf for a while. Maybe I should pick it up.
My List
It’s a quick read Jen. often funny, but bittersweet in the end. 😉 thank you!
Great list! I’ve been meaning to check out Dean Koontz’s Odd books. Thanks for dropping by my TTT, happy Tuesday 🙂
Odd series is really good. Thank you for dropping back!
Loved The Catastrophic History of Me and You. First I must gush about the cover gorgeousness. But that is the shallow in me. Really the story itself was fantastic. Great list.
My TTT List
Yay! fantastic story, indeed. 😀 thank you!
I haven’t heard of any of these but definitely will be looking closer at some of them. Great picks!
My TTT: http://www.bookythoughtsandme.com/top-ten-books-ive-read-so-far-in-2013/
thanks for dropping by! pick one soon, alright? 😉
Ooooh, nice list. Lots I haven’t read but are on my TBR list. Good to know you like them! http://ashleighonline.wordpress.com/2013/06/25/top-ten-tuesday-top-ten-books-ive-read-so-far-in-2013/
Maybe it’s about time you check them out? 😉 thanks for dropping by!
Hello Maria! Intrigued about #1. If you want to marry it, then the book must be something else. Hihi. I am reading my first Koontz now, it’s called Lightning. It’s going great so far. Quite long but good. 🙂
Hi Tin, I just bought Lightning! will read that soon (as Lynai reco’d it). Try History of Love! So nice, that one.
I still have to read Scarlet! Not sure why I haven’t yet given I enjoyed Cinder so much. You’ve made me curious about The History of Love.
Scarlet is more entertaining, I assure you 😉 and I hope you get curious enough to read The History of Love. 🙂 thank you!
Reading outside your comfort zone definitely pays off 🙂 I really need to read the first 5 books you listed!
IKR? =) hope you get to read them soon! Thanks!
I’ve apparently had Eon sitting on my to-read list for so long that I forget ever discovering it in the first place. I hope I don’t forget it a second time — the summary on Goodreads makes it enticing, and I’d love to read it!
Happy reading!
Eon is good, but Eona is 5x better IMO. Hope you can read it soon!
Ann! You’re right. My link for that was messed up, haha! thanks for letting me know, I’ve updated it.
