Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
Top Ten Books When You Need Something Light and Fun
1. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins. (Such a cute read! AND, it's set in Paris! AND it's got a cute guy named Etienne.)
2. Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase. (A fun NA contemporary about a girl finding out she is royalty. It has a Princess Diaries feel, but I loved it SO MUCH MORE.)
3. Pretending He's Mine by Lauren Blakely. (Another NA contemporary. A fun read about a girl who hires an actor to portray her fianceé to help her score the job of a lifetime.)
4. Losing It by Cora Carmack. (Ok, apparently NA contemps are the main books I read that are light and fun. Anyways, this was a bit cheesy to me, but I still really liked it. Girl wants to lose her virginity, attempts a one-night stand, one night-stand turns out to be her new professor. Woops.)
5. The Collector by Victoria Scott. (Some of you may not think this is light and fun, but I thought it was HILARIOUS. Dante had me laughing out loud the whole book.)
6. Golden by Jessi Kirby. (I wasn't going to put this one on here, but then I think, why not? It's an incredible book and made me smile so many times. Just because it made me reflect doesn't mean it's not a light read, right?)
7. The Marriage Bargain by Jennifer Probst. (Adult romance about a woman and her best friend's older brother who marry each other for convenience and to keep their jobs, but of course end up falling for each other.)
8. Inhale, Exhale by Sarah M. Ross. (I just read this and I really liked it. A very cute NA love story.)
9. Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins. (A cute YA read about a girl who is sent to a boarding school of sorts for the supernatural. Sophie, the main character is fun, and Archer is just hotness personified.)
10. Slammed by Colleen Hoover. (Ok, I know alot of you don't think this is a light read because of some of the things that happen- but it's the sweetest of sweet love stories and I couldn't think of one more book, so it's going to have to work!)
Whew! That was a hard one! What made your Top Ten this week? Leave your link so I can go check it out!

Losing It was so awesome, and a little on the lighter side as far as the NA genre goes. I should've added it.
ReplyDeleteWasn't Inhale, Exhale amazing?! LOVED that book!

I LOVED Inhale, Exhale! I'm having another book hangover- I can't stop thinking about it!!! And I liked Losing It, I'm excited I got Faking It- can't wait to read about Cade!

Same here Teresa! So we should KILL next week's Top Ten!!
DeleteI heart your list very much, I put both Anna and Losing It (LOVE) on mine too and I ALMOST added The Collector but it was between that and Obsidian and Daemon won out over Dante. And let's face it...no one blog can handle the both of them at once!
ReplyDeleteVERY TRUE! This works out perfectly- I put Dante and you put Daemon, so they were both represented!! I'm so glad you liked Losing It! It was a fun one. I made my best friend read it and she doesn't typically do NA books.
DeleteI really need to read Anna and the French Kiss, it has made so many lists today! I put Hex Hall on my today too!

ReplyDeleteThanks CeCe!
DeleteGreat list! I still haven't read Golden but I want to soooo bad! Anna and Hex Hall made it to my list as well!

OMG, Nikki- I LOVED Golden. I worship the bookshelves it sits in. Ok, that was lame, but you get my point. I hope you get to read it very soon! And go Anna and Hex! LOVE those books!
DeleteAnna topped my list, too. I just finished Golden a couple of days ago and really enjoyed it. Great list!

Yay! Anna is a popular one this week. And I'm glad you liked Golden, I couldn't say enough great things about it!
DeleteOhmigosh I want to read Suddenly Royal soooo bad!!! Anna is just...yes.
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT: http://www.nobentspines.blogspot.com/
Suddenly Royal. SWOON! I cannot tell you how much I adore that book!!! I hope you get to read it soon!
DeleteI've heard a lot about both Losing It and Golden! :D
ReplyDeleteI have to read them both; I definitely agree with you that Anna and the French Kiss and Hex Hall are both fun and light books! I need to re-read them both again.
Thanks for stopping by my TTT Jessica! (:
Same here! I definitely need to re-read Hex Hall, since I finally bought the other two in the series. When you get around to Losing It and Golden, I hope you love them as much as I did!
DeleteGolden is an amazing book! And I was literally just thinking about adding The Collector to my tbr list! I haven't read any of the others besides Anna, which I'm pretty sure was on EVERYONE's list today.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I agree. I haven't seen a list without Anna, I don't think!! The Collector is SO funny. Dante made me laugh so so much!!
DeleteI just bought Suddenly Royal (late last week), so I'm glad to see it on your list!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I hope you like it!!! I loved it! But it might be the inner little girl in me, haha!
DeleteAnna and the French Kiss is on SO MANY lists this week! I haven't read it yet but I super want to after seeing everyone rave about it.
ReplyDeleteIt's SO good! And cute! I loved the writing style too.
DeleteI've only read #9 on your list and while the Hex Hall books aren't my favorite, they definitely qualify as light and fun!
ReplyDeleteAgreed- they're not my favorite either, but they're just cute enough to where I enjoyed reading them.
DeleteLeave me some comment love! And I will get around to commenting back!
My blog is an award-free blog, however, as I just do not have the time to follow-up.
