"'What is this, the 1950's?' Annabelle adds. 'Girls belong in the kitchen and crap?'

'You'll just distract us,' Kraven sneers.

'Bite me.'

Kraven bites the air at her, and Annabelle's face opens with surprise. Then she socks him the chest and storms in the opposite direction." p 17


"We spill into the library, a small smile touches Charlie's mouth. I'm not sure why. There's enough dust in here to make Oklahoma farmers extremely nervous. Books clutter the shelves, floor to ceiling, but they aren't organized in any fashion. Some spines face in and others out. Some books teeter in big stacks out of reach, while smaller stacks litter the floor." p 24

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list  that one of our bloggers here at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists! If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. Have fun with it! It's a fun way to get to know your fellow bloggers.


 This week's topic is: Top Ten 2015 Releases I Meant To Get To But Didn't


*in no particular order
**please don't shame me for these!


1. THE RETURN by Jennifer L. Armentrout--I am SO ashamed to say I haven't read it yet, I don't know what happened! I think when I finally got my copy, I was struggling to read through review books and then I was likely trying to read books for signings...but once I know I have The Power, I will so be binging these two!
2. WICKED EVER AFTER by Delilah S. Dawson--we can basically call this post my shame face post! I loooved Delilah's Blud series and was ecstatic to here we'd see Criminy again...and yet...it's still unread!
3. THE CHESS QUEEN ENIGMA by Colleen Gleason--I think what threw me off here was I finally did not get an ARC in this series! Sob! I really love this one though! It's sooo good!


4. A WICKED THING by Rhiannon Thomas--despite the mixed reviews, I was very excited for this one! A Sleeping Beauty sequel of sorts?! Hell yes! I love fairy tales and their retellings and imagined sequels! ;)
5. ASH & BRAMBLE by Sarah Prineas--another one of mixed reviews, but one I was excited for! This one had a mish-mash of fairy tales going on, so I was super excited for it as well!
6. CRIMSON BOUND by Rosamund Hodge--a sort of Red Riding Hood retelling and another fairy tale that is escaping me at the moment! But since I loved Cruel Beauty, I was eager for this one!

7. FROZEN TIDES by Morgan Rhodes--I am totally in LOVE with this series, but yet come release day and near my birthday, I did not get around to reading this one yet! It saddens me...though I know the cliffhanger that's likely there will kill me and if I can lessen my pain by a month or two I know I will be grateful in the long run! 
8. SIX OF CROWS by Leigh Bardugo--so many amazing reviews and I have yet to read it! I am really trying to get this one up in my queue, but at the moment I am trying to get caught up and finish a few series first!
9. TEN THOUSAND SKIES ABOVE YOU by Claudia Gray--I loooved ATPOY and was dying to read this one, but have I? Based on this post I think you have your answer. :(


10. VELVET by Temple West--I love me a good vampire romance! There just aren't enough of them if you ask me! LOL! This one screamed my name telling me to buy buy buy and read it! Well, I bought it...
11. THE MASKED TRUTH by Kelley Armstrong--having any Kelley Armstrong book in my TBR pile this long just isn't done! Not sure what happened to me this year!
