Hey Bookworms! It’s time for another Top Ten Tuesday post! These weekly posts are hosted by The Broke and The Bookish where they give us a weekly topic and we answer with books or book related answers! Today’s topic is my top 10 Books of 2015, so far. It is so odd and makes me feel so much better that 2015 hasn’t been the easiest year for me. My books are have what kept me going as well as this blog. So let’s get started and these books are in no particular order!
Top 10 Books That Stole My Heart in 2015
1.Stardust by Neil Gaiman
I’ve gushed about this book on the first day of my challenge, but seriously this is the perfect story if you feel like you need a fairy-tale in your life!
2. The Ruby Circle by Richelle Mead
This book was the perfect wrap-up for the series and some interesting reveals for the VA series that will leave you in shock! I love the strength and love in the book. There will be a special post involving this book ASAP, so be on the lookout. I do not want to see the VA world end and I’m hoping she will do some novellas I am yearning for!
3. Vampire Academy: The Graphic Novel by Richelle Mead (Author), Emma Vieceli (Illustrator), Leigh Dragoon (Adapter)
Seriously this was amazing and made me love the story and world even more! I love how the illustrator captured their personalities perfectly through their gestures! Just need my own copy asap!
4. Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods by Rick Riordan
I loved this book it provided me a laugh when I needed it. I love Percy’s sense of humor and I love the illustrations I want a paper copy of this too, so I can just show it off!
5. Pokemon Adventures Volume 1 by Hidenori Kusaka
Honestly I am obsessed with these graphic novels. I have always been a big Pokemon freak whether it has been the show or the games. I am learning more about the world from the graphic novels and adoring it!
6. Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge
I have gushed about this book a lot, but seriously it is my new favorite. I can’t help it! It’s good to have a not perfect all good herione
7. Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
This was an audiobook listen that I gifted myself. I loved the mythology and how it wove into it especially since I haven’t read much about Chimera. I am glad I waited till the hype died down to enjoy and form my own opinions of this book. Hope I love the next two books as well!
8. Everything Leads to You by Nina LaCour
I loved the sweetness of this story as well as the innocence. The ability to find and accept yourself. The peek into movie making. It definitely hit my craving for a sweet kiss and I definitely would pick up something else by this author!
9. The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern
Honestly when I first started this story Tamara got on my nerves a bit, and I almost stopped listening, but I am more than happy I continued. She had some growth and it was a good coming of age story! Plus the nuns!
10. If You Could See Me Now by Cecelia Ahern
Honestly it was the sweetest story. It had harsh and sad parts, but it was needed to appreciate the sweetness. It also had amazing magical realism. I definitely need to own my own copy in all formats. This is definitely my second favorite Ahern book! She does not disappoint! Her books also take me traveling each time.
Well bookworms those are my choices for this time around! What are your favorite books so far? Have you read any of these books? What about books with magical realism? What’s your favorite Cecelia Ahern book if you’ve read any. Let me know and link me your Top Ten Tuesday post down below!

The book is huge and beautiful, I have the hardcover, though I think there is or will be a paperback one? not 100% on that. I feel like it’d be impossible not to love anything that’s PJ based.

Could you get them online? I get my audio books from my library on OverDrive, so I can just listen to them on whatever device I want.

It’s through my mom’s so I am too lazy to set up and try. I’m worried I may have a big fine on mine because I kept it much too long when I was younger

oh no, that sucks 😦 I had some huge fines too from when I was a kid. But then I moved a couple times and was able to get stuff from the new libraries.
