Nice 🙂 and thank you for the directory link!

I’m glad to see that “Waking Gods” made it onto your list! Would you say it was better than “Sleeping Giants”? I still need to read the second book since I liked the first one but didn’t love it, that’s why I’m still a bit reluctant to get the sequel 😀

I’ve heard great things about “Six Wakes” and the blurb sounds really interesting, I definitely need to read that one!

Looks like you’ve read some spectacular books so far this year!!

Here’s a link to my TTT post for this week:

Great list, Lisa! I’m glad to see you enjoyed the Finishing School series; I’m currently making my way through the Parasol Protectorate books and they’re a lot of fun, so I’ll definitely be giving that series a try one I finish this one. =)

Ohh I must get waking gods soon, I have just finished sleeping giants, so good

Thanks for sharing your favorites of the year, so far, and thank you also for building a book meme list. I look forward to seeing your complete list.

I loved Waking Gods A LOT – I read Sleeping Giants and Waking Gods back to back (reviews of which are on my blog) and thoroughly enjoyed them. The book on your list that I really want to check out however is The Bear and the Nightingale, it has been on my radar but I haven’t come across any reviews of it yet.

Great list! I had The Bear and the Nightingale on my list as well! Such a beautiful book.

I haven’t read any of the books on your list, and I’m feeling very unaccomplished right now? Isn’t my TBR big enough? (silently cries)

Here’s my TTT 🙂

I love the book covers for Sylvain Neuvel’s books…also a reminder that I still have yet to read these books xD Great list! Yay for Leviathan Wakes 😀

My TTT

Binti was such an amazing book. It’s nice to meet another fan of it.

I must say that the cover for Down Among the Sticks catches my eye as well. I might just have to read that one. 🙂

Here is my TTT.

Great list! A bunch of these are actually on my TBR – especially Down Among the Sticks and Bones. 🙂 Here’s my T10T for this week!

Some great books listed here. I added a couple to my TBR list!

Don’t you love TTT posts? the only one I’ve heard of on this list was the Finishing School series – and I have the first book of that, and I’m hoping to read it soon. Otherwise, glad you enjoyed so many books this year 😀
