Top 5 Sunday!!
Posted on January 30, 2011 in Uncategorized with 8 Comments
I spotted this post over at Larissa’s Bookish Life, and I just couldn’t resist participating, so today you get Suspense Sunday AND Top 5 Sunday! It’s a Sunday Double Feature!
Today’s Top 5 is Books You Loved and Were Surprised By It!
My Top 5 in no particular order:
by Alexander Gordon Smith
This was YA boy fiction all the way,hardly a female in sight, yet I loved it!
by Marianne de Pierres
My intro to sci-fi punk noir, and it was awesome!
by Greg McDonald
My first Fletch novel. Loved it!
by Scott Smith
This novel made my skin crawl and left me vaguely sad for days, yet I couldn’t put it down.
by Stacia Kane
Who knew I would fall in love with a drug addicted, emotionally damaged moll, and a big, ugly gang enforcer? But I did…

Unholy Ghosts has a great cover.
Brandi from Blkosiner’s Book Blog
Unholy Ghosts sounds really good! I haven't heard of the others, but they don't seem like my style. Though sometimes it's good to give something new a try
I want to read Nylon Angel.
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I've been super busy lately and had to take a break form computer this weekend. Sometimes too much tech gets to me. Back in action now! These books look awesome.
Well… I have to admit that I haven't read any of these books yet, but they seem pretty good. Stacia Kane's series has been on my TBR list for a while and I'll try to get to it ASAP! And maybe some sci-fi would be good for a change…
Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier and for following me!
See you around!
xoxo
I've only heard of one of these 5 books, so I need to start shopping around! They look fantastic, and they're all the moe awesome for coming as surprises.
Tiger-I'm glad I can give you some good recs! Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by!
Lockdown looks amazing!
