Colour me purple. I could have gone the safe way by choosing blue or burgundy, which are my favourite colours. Nah. That just seems too boring. So for my choices for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, I pick a colour I’m starting to like. You can already guess which one. I wasn’t a huge fan of it, but I’ve grown to love it though.
Winter by Marissa Meyer
I recently bought this book since I’ve finally got into this series. Yes, I’m horrible with my TBR list. The first book I read by Marissa is Renegades. It’s a good read, but I must prefer Lunar Chronicles. She’s becoming one of my new favourite authors.
Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan
Can I fangirl more over this cover? Probably not. But I can certainly try. It sold me. This year, I hope to get more diverse books onto my reading list, and this tops the lists. I eagerly await its release!
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling
Ugh, this book. It broke me in two, and I still don’t know if I’ve healed from it. Honestly, I haven’t read all the books even though I have them all waiting on my shelf.
Honor among Thieves by Rachel Caine and Ann Aguirre
I’ve seen this book floating around the blogosphere lately. And this book was singing to me when I decided to go on a sci-fi haul. Give me a conflicted anti-hero female lead, sentient alien spaceships, and a great cover, and you’ve got me hooked. I can’t wait to read this.
Brightly Burning by Alexa Donne
Wait, you’re telling me I missed a Jane Eyre retelling set in space?! Yes, I regret everything right now. Well then, I’ve just found a new sci-fi read. 😉
Smoke in the Sun by Renée Ahdieh
Why must this be the last book? WHY?! I adore the characters, lush storyline, and culture. But I’m worried I have too high expectations for this sequel. I don’t want my babies to get hurt, but I just see heartache on the horizon. Are you looking forward to Smoke in the Sun?
Girls of Paper and Fire has such a stunning cover. I can’t wait to read that one!

ooh, I forgot about Girls of Paper and Fire when I was doing my purple covers! I had Smoke in the Sun, too! It was actually the first one I thought of even though I haven’t read those books yet, which is strange.

LOL I thought the same with Smoke. It doesn’t quite match the first book’s cover, but I like it. I had research some of the other ones though.

I like that you picked a variety of purple. It shows the different emotions it can evoke when utilized differently!!

I’m glad you mentioned this! I think that’s one of the main reasons why I like it now. I first believed it was plain, until I saw all the covers.

Purple is my second-favorite color. I haven’t read any of these except Harry Potter, but they’re very pretty!

Smoke in the Sun? YES PLEASE.
I think Flame in the Mist was my first ever FairyLoot-book [I can be mistaken] which makes this even more special. And even if I’m mistaken and it wasn’t the first one, I still really liked it, haha.
