This week’s Top 5 Wednesday is: Books You Didn’t Get to In 2017. These are books you didn’t end up getting to in 2017, but really want to prioritize in 2018.
1. Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo.
2. All the Crooked Saints by Maggie Stiefvater.
3. Best Day Ever by Kaira Rouda.
4. Lie to Me by J.T. Ellison
5. Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Caine.
Loved Best Day Ever so much and Stillhouse Lake I liked (even though it is serial killer themed)! Didn’t care for Lie To Me…hope you have better luck with it though.
I’ve seen lots of mixed reviews on Lie to Me and Best Day Ever, but I still want to give them a try. I’ve seen pretty much nothing but perfect reviews for Stillhouse Lake. I can’t believe I haven’t read it yet! I like serial killer books usually.
I really liked Stillhouse Lake, but have yet to pick up the sequel. Story of my life…
I’ve heard the sequel is supposed to be as good as the first. I hope you get to read it soon!
I loved Stillhouse Lake and it’s sequel. I think you will, too. I also need to pick up All Crooked Saints soon.
I’ve seen so many mixed reviews on All the Crooked Saints that I thought about skipping it, but it’s by Maggie Stiefvater, so I still want to give it a try. I hope that we both enjoy it!
That was my thought, too. My sister gave it to me for my birthday a while back, so now I don’t have to make the decision not to read it. 😉
Are those the first five of 2018?
No they weren’t, unfortunately. Though I did just finish my 5th book yesterday haha.
I am a few pages into my first. I’ve been sick since New Years and still not back to normal. You know you’re sick when you feel too bad to read.
Ugh that is the worst! I hope you start to feel better.
Thanks.
I really want to read Stillhouse Lake too!! I’ve seen many great reviews for it.
I have too! It looks so good, though I am a little nervous I’ve been overhyped on it haha.
That is always a possibility! Let’s hope not 🙂
Wonder Woman was so good! Read it – you won’t regret it! I also heard really good things about Stillhouse Lake, so adding it to my TBR list.
I’m looking forward to Wonder Woman. I’ve really liked the other Leigh Bardugo books I’ve read. And I hope that we both enjoy Stillhouse Lake!
I didn’t get into Best Day Ever either. I really liked Lie To Me though!
I’m looking forward to finally reading it!
“All the Crooked Saints” is my first read of 2018. It was confusing. The writing was excellent though.
I final a lot of Stiefvater’s books are kind of like that!
GAH I NEED TO READ WONDER WOMAN, TOO! I’ve been hearing the best things about it, and I absolutely adore Marissa Meyer! ❤

I love Marissa Meyer too. Though Wonder Woman is by Leigh Bardugo haha.
What a great selection of books!
Thanks!
I would love to read Wonder Woman too this year, along with A Language of Thorns!
I’m a little hesitant on Language of Thorns, just because I’m not really a fan of short stories. But it’s by Bardugo, so I’ll probably read it!
I need to pick up Warbringer as well. I’ve never been big on Wonder Woman, but everything else from Bardugo was excellent.
I feel exactly the same way!
Hope Wonder Woman will prove to be fantastic for you. I rarely read YA stuff, but when you got Leigh Bardugo on it, its bound to be GREAT, right?! 😀 I hope to read it in 2018 too!
That’s kind of what I was thinking. I hope we both enjoy it!
Oh I have a bunch!
And I’m sure we’ll have even more this year haha.
Wonder Woman is on my soon to read list!
I hope that we both enjoy it. I look forward to hearing what you think of it!
Same to you!
