Top 10 boeken die ik nog wil kopen
Hoe groot je TBR-pile ook is, elke boekliefhebber kent dit probleem wel. Al die leuke boeken die je nog wilt kopen! En elke maand komen er weer leuke boeken uit en en en #struggles.Zo heb ik ook nog (een hoop) boeken die ik wil kopen, en vandaag zet ik deze 10 op een rij. Dit zijn boeken waar ik al dingen over gehoord heb en die me gewoon super leuk lijken! Ze staan dus ook zeker op mijn lijstje om gekocht te worden.
Cress – Marissa Meyer
In this third book in the Lunar Chronicles, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, now with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.Their best hope lies with Cress, a girl imprisoned on a satellite since childhood who’s only ever had her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker. Unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.
When a daring rescue of Cress goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing prevent her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only hope the world has.Ik wil natuurlijk van deze serie ook nog Fairest (deel 3.5) en Winter (deel 4) kopen, maar laten we beginnen met deel 3. Ik raad je deze serie erg aan om te gaan lezen, want het zijn gewoon leuke boeken.Fairytales with a twist beter gezegd. En de twist in dit geval is dat er sprake is van robots. Als je begint in Cinder, moet je wel eventjes wennen aan de schrijfstijl. Maar zodra je er aan gewend bent, lezen de boeken als een trein. Zowel Cinder als Scarlet had ik binnen een dag uit.
Survive the Night – Danielle Vega
We’re all gonna die down here. . . .Julie lies dead and disemboweled in a dank, black subway tunnel, red-eyed rats nibbling at her fingers. Her friends think she’s just off with some guy—no one could hear her getting torn apart over the sound of pulsing music.
In a tunnel nearby, Casey regrets coming to Survive the Night, the all-night underground rave in the New York City subway. Her best friend Shana talked her into it, even though Casey just got out of rehab. Alone and lost in the dark, creepy tunnels, Casey doesn’t think Survive the Night could get any worse . . .. . . until she comes across Julie’s body, and the party turns deadly.
Desperate for help, Casey and her friends find themselves running through the putrid subway system, searching for a way out. But every manhole is sealed shut, and every noise echoes eerily in the dark, reminding them they’re not alone.They’re being hunted.
Trapped underground with someone—or something—out to get them, Casey can’t help but listen to her friend’s terrified refrain: “We’re all gonna die down here. . . .”
Hoe gaaf klinkt dit boek wel niet? Alles is zo ontzettend mysterieus gehouden en je weet eigenlijk helemaal niks over het boek. En de cover spreekt natuurlijk ook ontzettend aan.
Daughter of Smoke and Bone – Laini Taylor
Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky.In a dark and dusty shop, a devil’s supply of human teeth grows dangerously low.And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war.Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real, she’s prone to disappearing on mysterious “errands”, she speaks many languages – not all of them human – and her bright blue hairactuallygrows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she’s about to find out.When beautiful, haunted Akiva fixes fiery eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?Ook over dit boek goede dingen gehoord, maar ook erg wisselvallige dingen. De romantiek in dit boek is voor sommigen niet geweldig en daardoor was het boek vrij slecht. Ik ben zelf dus ook wel benieuwd naar mijn mening over de romantiek, omdat ik dat vaak een slecht punt vind in een boek.
Not a drop to drink – Mindy McGinnis
Lynn knows every threat to her pond: drought, a snowless winter, coyotes, and, most importantly, people looking for a drink. She makes sure anyone who comes near the pond leaves thirsty, or doesn’t leave at all.Confident in her own abilities, Lynn has no use for the world beyond the nearby fields and forest. Having a life means dedicating it to survival, and the constant work of gathering wood and water. Having a pond requires the fortitude to protect it, something Mother taught her well during their quiet hours on the rooftop, rifles in hand.But wisps of smoke on the horizon mean one thing: strangers. The mysterious footprints by the pond, nighttime threats, and gunshots make it all too clear Lynn has exactly what they want, and they won’t stop until they get it….With evocative, spare language and incredible drama, danger, and romance, debut author Mindy McGinnis depicts one girl’s journey in a barren world not so different than our own.
Dit concept, sowieso ben ik al een mega fan van dystopian Maar het idee dat het gene wat je juist nodig hebt om te overleven, bijna niet verkrijgbaar is. Vaak gaan dystopian boeken over mensen die elkaar willen vinden, maar niet over de échte eerste levensbehoeften. En de cover is ook prachtig!
Slated – Terri Terry
Kyla’s memory has been erased,
her personality wiped blank,
her memories lost for ever.She’s been Slated.The government claims she was a terrorist and that they are giving her a second chance – as long as she plays by their rules. But echoes of the past whisper in Kyla’s mind. Someone is lying to her, and nothing is as it seems. Who can she trust in her search for the truth?Wie word nu niet enthousiast van zulke flaptekst? Ik in ieder geval wel! Dit zijn typisch mijn type genre. Verder weet ik eigenlijk ook niet verder over het boek, behalve dat het al super spannend klinkt!
(Dit boek heb ik afgelopen december gekocht, maar deze stond wel op de lijst)
The Accident Season – Moïre Fowley Doyle
It’s the accident season, the same time every year. Bones break, skin tears, bruises bloom.The accident season has been part of seventeen-year-old Cara’s life for as long as she can remember. Towards the end of October, foreshadowed by the deaths of many relatives before them, Cara’s family becomes inexplicably accident-prone. They banish knives to locked drawers, cover sharp table edges with padding, switch off electrical items – but injuries follow wherever they go, and the accident season becomes an ever-growing obsession and fear.But why are they so cursed? And how can they break free?Ten eerste, ik zou nooit in mijn hele leven in zo’n wereld willen leven. Maar stel het je voor, elk jaar, rond dezelfde periode, gebeuren er allemaal ongelukken in je leven. Van de meest verschrikkelijke ongelukken, maar je overleeft ze allemaal. Echter blijven de gebeurtenissen je wel bij…
I’m excited about the book! :D
To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before – Jenny Han
Lara Jean’s love life goes from imaginary to out of control in this heartfelt novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Summer I Turned Pretty series.What if all the crushes you ever had found out how you felt about them.. all at once?
Lara Jean Song keeps her love letters in a hatbox her mother gave her. They aren’t love letters that anyone else wrote for her; these are ones she’s written.

Until the day her secret letters are mailed, and suddenly, Lara Jean’s love life goes from imaginary to out of control.Worst nightmare ever? Zeker weten van wel! Ik ben heel nieuwsgierig hoe de hoofdpersoon, Lara Jean, deze gebeurtenis aanpakt. Dit is toch wel één verschrikkelijk iets om mee te maken, tenzij ze natuurlijk hetzelfde voelen. Alleen word het dan weer minder als ze alle vijf wat voor je voelen.
Asylum – Madeleine Roux
For sixteen-year-old Dan Crawford, New Hampshire College Prep is more than a summer program—it’s a lifeline. An outcast at his high school, Dan is excited to finally make some friends in his last summer before college.

Because the asylum holds the key to a terrifying past. And there are some secrets that refuse to stay buried. Asylum, is a horror story that treads the line between genius and insanity.Hoe awesome? Het doet me ook een beetje denken aan Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Hoewel ik dat boek wel oké vond, dus niet geweldig. Lijkt dit boek me erg spannend en leuk! Ik ben wel een fan van dit soort verhalen.
Me, Earl and the dying girl – Jesse Andrews
Greg Gaines is the last master of high school espionage, able to disappear at will into any social environment. He has only one friend, Earl, and together they spend their time making movies, their own incomprehensible versions of Coppola and Herzog cult classics.Until Greg’s mother forces him to rekindle his childhood friendship with Rachel.
Rachel has been diagnosed with leukemia—-cue extreme adolescent awkwardness—-but a parental mandate has been issued and must be obeyed. When Rachel stops treatment, Greg and Earl decide the thing to do is to make a film for her, which turns into the Worst Film Ever Made and becomes a turning point in each of their lives.
And all at once Greg must abandon invisibility and stand in the spotlight.Van wat ik gehoord heb, bevat dit boek zowel grappige elementen als verdrietige elementen. Maar het is wel een boek die ik zo ontzettend graag wil lezen. Ik heb hem wel in mijn bezit als e-book, maar ik ben van plan om de papieren versie aan te schaffen, ook omdat de cover zo ontzettend leuk is.

Existence – Abbi Glines
What happens when you’re stalked by Death? You fall in love with him, of course.Pagan Moore doesn’t cheat Death, but instead, falls in love with him.
Seventeen year old Pagan Moore has seen souls her entire life. Once she realized the strangers she often saw walking through walls were not visible to anyone else, she started ignoring them. If she didn’t let them know she could see them, then they left her alone. Until she stepped out of her car the first day of school and saw an incredibly sexy guy lounging on a picnic table, watching her with an amused smirk on his face. Problem is, she knows he’s dead.
Not only does he not go away when she ignores him, but he does something none of the others have ever done. He speaks. Pagan is fascinated by the soul. What she doesn’t realize is that her appointed time to die is drawing near and the wickedly beautiful soul she is falling in love with is not a soul at all.He is Death and he’s about to break all the rules. Dit boek doet me erg denken aan The Dark Elements van Jennifer L Armentrout. En geloof me, ik houd van de serie. Dus daarom staat dit boek sowieso op mijn TBR lijst.
Hoe de achterkant dingen beschrijft, lijkt wel op The Dark Elements. Zo kon Layla ook de zielen van mensen zien, en Roth zou in principe de dood kunnen zijn. Maar sinds ik het boek niet gelezen heb, kan ik er weinig over zeggen. Want de inhoud kan totaal anders zijn, maar ik hoop wel dat het even pakkend zal zijn!
Welke van deze boeken raden jullie mij het meeste aan?
