Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted at the Broke and the Bookish blog. Each week a different topic is introduced and it is fun to see what everyone writes each week. Check out their blog for more information.
This week we talk about the 2015 releases I didn’t read. These were all on my list and are books I hoped to read at some point in 2015. Some of the books I already own; others I still have to get.
Golden Son by Pierce Brown
The Fold by Peter Clines
Time Salvager by Wesley Chu
Dark Orbit by Carolyn Ives Gilman
The Dinosaur Lords by Victor Milan
The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin
Hallow Point by Ari Marmell
Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson
Illuminae by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
Killing Trail by Margaret Mizushima
What 2015 books didn’t you read?
I’m so glad to see Peter Clines’ THE FOLD on your list because it was one of my absolute 2015 favorites but I know only one other person so far who has actually read it even though I keep recommending it like crazy π If you end up liking it you should also take a look at Peter Clines’ 14 because it’s set in the same universe and there are some connections to discover! π
Also yay for GOLDEN SON and ILLUMINAE, those were also AMAZING! π
I got TIME SALVAGER for my birthday but haven’t read it so far, I hope it can live up to my expectations!
I was also pretty excited about THE DINOSAUR LORDS but unfortunately this one was one of my biggest disappointments of 2015 and I’m saying this even though I’m a big dinosaur fanβ¦ But I’m not really that much into fantasy, so I hope you’re going to like it a lot more than I did! π

I’m glad you liked The Fold, Sebastian. I hope I can read that before long–and the others, too! The Dinosaur Lords is probably a little lower on my list since I’ve heard others who didn’t like it as much.

I’ve heard Illuminae is fantastic and I’m hoping to get to it this year as well. The Pierce Brown is on my radar but I haven’t quite made up my mind on it. I hope you’re able to get some of these read soon!

I hope I’ll read some of these soon, too. The first Pierce Brown book was very good, but also very intense.I think that has me hesitating about book 2. I already own it though so I should read it.

I think I’ve read all but two of these! All fantastic choices and I hope you get to them this year. Bump Golden Son up and time it so that you finish when the third book Morning Star comes out, trust me you’ll want to read it right away! π

I haven’t read any of these either π¦ Boy do I feel like I’m running behind. I have Golden Son, Time Salvager, and The Fifth Season long enough for me to be ashamed that I haven’t read them. “I will get to them eventually, there’s still time” I tell myself…until then, shame on me!

I know, Sharry. I’ve had some of these a long time, too. I need to get busy and read them!
