Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I Haven't Read But Want To

.

 

It's been so long since I made a Top Ten Tuesday post, and I recently found a topic that really interests me, which is Authors I Haven't Read But Want To. These past few years, I discovered so many new authors and have accumulated plenty of books that I still haven't read yet. In this post, I will be sharing 10 of them as a way to remind myself as well to prioritize these authors on my to-read list. Maybe I'll start reading the standalone books first before tackling the trilogies/series—because series can sometimes be intimidating, especially when they're extremely long and take a long time to finish. So here are the authors, listed in alphabetical order 😉

Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Books Released In the Last Ten Years

.

Here we are again, back with another Top Ten Tuesday! I decided to do this week's topic because it seems interesting to look back to the past 10 years and see my favorite books that are released during those times. At first it was quite difficult for me to only rely on my memory (especially because I usually read something years after it was released); but thankfully, with the help of Goodreads, I was able to look through all the books that are released in 2009 until 2018. Some years are a bit more difficult to choose because there are several books that I absolutely love, but in the end, I managed to only choose one. So here they are, my favorites from the oldest to the most recently released books. (You can click on the book titles for my reviews)

Top Ten Tuesday: Things That Make Me Pick Up a Book

.

It's been so long since I last did one of these posts; the last Top Ten Tuesday that I wrote on this blog was in October 2018. Since the beginning of 2019, I don't really have much spare time because I went out a lot. So keeping up with my book reviews was the only thing that I focused on for this blog 😅. In this post, I'm going to discuss Things That Make Me Pick Up a Book, which is a topic for April 2nd, but I still want to do it anyway. I think I might have done a similar post in the past, but let's consider this an updated version of that. So here's the list in no particular order! ✨

Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I’d Love to Meet

.

 

Here we are again with another Top Ten Tuesday post after several months! I don't think I've ever done this topic on my blog ever before, so I thought this will be a good opportunity to share some of the Authors I'd Love to Meet. Of course I would love to meet all of my favorite authors, but on this list I picked my favorite authors who have impacted my life—one way or another. I'd really love to meet them and express my feelings and gratitude towards their works. So here they are, listed in no particular order.

Top Ten Tuesday: Popular Books that Lived Up to the Hype

.

 

Finally back again with another Top Ten Tuesday post! I rarely do this tag on my blog, because most of the time it's quite difficult for me to pick 10 books for certain topics 😂. But this week I decided to do it because the topic is Popular Books that Lived Up to the Hype. I've read a lot of hyped books in the past. I guess because I'm always intrigued whenever a book gets a lot of attention and positive reviews. At first I was quite confused where I should begin but I found this shelf on Goodreads called 'Popular Hyped Books' and decided to choose from the books on that list. I can probably list more than ten, but these are some that came to mind first. Here are the books in no particular order 😎.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books With My Favorite Color On the Cover

It's been a little more than 2 years since I last wrote a Top Ten Tuesday post—which is now handled by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is something that I'm really passionate about because it's related to book covers! In this post I will list my Top Ten Books with My Favorite Color on the Cover 😊. I actually have a lot of favorite colors. Most of the time I really like pastel colors that looks soft because I'm not really fond of vibrant colors. For this post, I decided to choose a bluish-green or greenish-blue colors 😂 (describing colors is so difficult). Here are the books that I have chosen!

Top Ten Book To Movie Adaptations I Still Need To Watch

If you know me, I absolutely love watching book to movie adaptations. That's whh this week's Top Ten Tuesday topic, Top Ten Book to Movie Adaptations I Still Need to Watch, is perfect for me. Even though I watch movie adaptations quite frequently, there are still tons of them that I need to watch. Mostly, I held myself back from watching them because I want to read the book first. Hopefully this list will remind me to watch these movies son :) Here's the list of movie adaptations I still need to watch in no particular order :))

Top Ten Wishes I'd Ask The Book Genie To Grant Me

It's been a very long time since I last made a Top Ten Tuesday post ! The last one that I did was back in June, that was like 4 months ago. So since I'm still not done with the book reviews that I'm supposed to publish (because life has been crazy busy lately), I guess I should just prepare a non-review post like this. And I kind of missed making it as well :) This week's topic is pretty exciting, which is Top Ten Wishes I'd Ask the Book Genie to Grant Me. So basically I can ask for anything bookish that I ever dreamed of and the book genie will grant me. Oh how I wish this was real. So here goes my wish, Genie.

Top Ten Books I'd Love To See As Movies

Here we are again with another Top Ten Tuesday post! This topic is actually scheduled for June 2nd, which is two weeks ago, but I couldn't publish the post on time so I decided to just do it any week I like. And the topic, as stated in the title above, is  Top Ten Books I'd Love To See As Movies/Tv Shows. I already made a Top 5 Wednesday list on books I'd want to see as TV shows, so for this one I'll go with the movies. Some of the books on this list are actually in the progress of being made into a movie, but I'll still include them because they're worth it. Okay, here's the list in no particular order.

Top Ten All Time Favorite Indonesian Authors

This week's Top 10 Tuesday is a freebie, so we're allowed to choose our own topic to list. A few weeks ago I posted my Top Ten All Time Favorite Authors, which included my favorite international authors. That's why this week, I'm going to list my Top Ten All Time Favorite Indonesian Authors; because I do read more Indonesian/local books than English books. Most of these authors I've read from several years ago, even since I was still in school. And even though I don't always rate their books 5/5, I've always loved their writing styles and will read anything they write :) So here's the list in no particular order!

Top Ten Books I Will Probably Never Read

.

It's time for another Top Ten Tuesday! This week's topic is actually quite interesting, because I never really think about books that I know I won't read. And now I have to choose Top Ten Books I Will Probably Never Read. I own some of the books on this list (which I will mention later) but I guess I just lost interest in them—so I'm probably going to give them out to friends or do a clearance sale on this blog. Some I don't own but I know I will probably never read them because of what it's about or because of other people's opinion. Alright, so here are the books in no particular order :)

Top Ten All Time Favorite Authors

We're back again in another Top Ten Tuesday—and this week's topic is to list our All-Time Favorite Authors. This is actually quite easy to do because I have SO many favorite authors—some I've read multiple books from, some I only read one book by them but instantly fell in love. I will start by listing my all-time favorite authors that I've read multiple books from; and at the end there will be some that I've only read one book from, but I already consider them as my favorite authors. Here's the list in no particular order ;)

Top Ten Inspiring Quotes from Books

I love quotes—especially those that are inspiring and could touch my heart. That's why I'm very excited for this week's Top Ten Tuesday, which is to list Top Ten Inspiring Quotes from Books. I'm excited but I'm also confused because I have SO many favorite quotes that inspired me. In the past, I think I've mentioned my favorite quotes several times on this blog; such as in my Top 5 Wednesday: Top Quotes post and Top Five Most Memorable Quotes from my 2013 Book Kaleidoscope. So I will try not to mention the quotes that I already listed in those posts. Okay, so here are my top inspiring quotes (from the books I've read) in no particular order ;)

Top Ten Books You Recently Added To Your To-Be-Read List

Hello! It's time for another Top Ten Tuesday post! And actually, this topic is scheduled for next week, but I decided to do it early because I don't know what to post for this week's topic. This time, I have to list Top Ten Books You Recently Added To Your To-Be-Read List. This one is quite easy because I don't have to think about it and I just need to open my to-read shelf on Goodreads. I think it's a good way to look back at the books I recently added and see what I need to read soon. Here's my list starting from the most recently added books :) (I'm making this post about a week earlier, on March 15th, so it's probably not my most updated list)

Top Ten All Time Favorite Books From the Past 3 Years

.

So this is actually a pretty late post, because I missed last week's Top 10 Tuesday topic when I went out of town. Last week's topic is to pick Top Ten All Time Favorite Books From the Past 3 Years. Even though it's late, I still want to make this post because I think it's a good way to look back at the books I've read in the past 3 years and pick the books that I've considered as my all time favorite. I gave a lot of 5 stars rating during those years, but not all of them I would categorize as my all-time favorites. Because all-time favorite is quite a big statement. Anyways, here are the books on my all-time favorite list from 2012 :) (You can click the book titles to go and see my full book reviews)

Top Ten Book Related Problems I Have

Here we are again in another Top 10 Tuesday post! And I'm really excited to do this post because the topic is to list Top Ten Book Related Problems I Have. Being a reader is a fun and happy thing for me, but there are times when it becomes a problem in my life. I hope I'm not the only reader with these problems. Or maybe if you've overcome some of these problems, you can share your tips with me in the comments below :D Without further ado, here's the list in no particular order :))

Top Ten Things I Like/Dislike When It Comes To Romances In Books

.

image source: here. edited by me.

I skipped almost all of Top 5 Wednesday last month, and it turns out I feel like all the topics this month are too difficult. So, in exchange, I'm trying my best to follow as much Top Ten Tuesday as possible! This week we're going to talk about romance in books; and I can say that I read quite a lot of books in that category—because I think almost every book has bits of romance mixed in it. Today the topic is to list Top Ten Things I Like/Dislike When It Comes To Romances In Books. Phew, isn't that a long title. I'm going to divide the like and dislike equally, so I will list 5 for each :)

Top Ten Popular Authors I've Never Read

.

image source: here. edited by me.

Hello! We're at the first Top Ten Tuesday of 2015! Since some of the earlier topics are quite difficult for me to make (or I'm just lazy), I decided to join this week because it's a freebie topic. So I decided to choose the older topics from Top Ten Tuesday that I haven't make yet; and my choice goes to Top Ten Popular Authors I've Never Read. The authors I'm going to list today are popular authors, but I haven't read a single book by them (even though I do have most of them on my bookshelf). I want this post to be a kind of reminder to myself, so I will make time to finally pick up these books. Here's the list in no particular order.

Top Ten Goals/Resolutions for 2015

.

image source: here. edited by me.

Hello again! As we're nearing the end of the year, I think this topic by Top 10 Tuesday is perfect to welcome 2015. The topic to finish off the year is to list Top Ten Goals/Resolutions For 2015, whether it's about bookish things, blogging, or otherwise. That's why I'm going to separate my goals/resolutions into 3 categories: the first one will be related with my reading goals, second will be my blogging resolutions, and lastly will be my daily life resolutions. Without further ado, here's my list of goals/resolutions for 2015.

Top Ten Books I Read In 2014

.

The time has finally come for me to decide the Top Ten Books I Read in 2014! I didn't read that many books this year, but I did read quite a lot of good books. Choosing the best ten books I read this year was quite difficult, but in the end I decided to go with the most memorable ones. Because I think those stories that stayed in my heart and mind are worthy enough to be listed here. Aside from the 10 books, I'll also have several honorable mentions: the books that also captured my heart, but I guess they didn't really make it into the top 10. And here's the list—in no particular order!
