We sit for hours looking through our TBR lists wondering when we will ever get to that one book we were dying to read when we added it 3 months ago or maybe even a year. As our piles get bigger we realize there is just not enough time in a day to read all the books that we wanted to read. So I had a great idea, pick 3 books from my TBR Pile and have you all pick which one I should read next. This is a month MEME and you are more than welcome to join be my posting your voting post in the linky below. Need the rules? No problem you can find them all right HERE.

Stray (Four Sisters #1)
by Elissa Sussman
Hardcover, 384 pages
Published October 7th 2014 by Greenwillow
I am grateful for my father, who keeps me good and sweet. I am grateful for my mother, who keeps her own heart guarded and safe. I am grateful for my adviser, who keeps me protected. I am grateful for the Path, which keeps me pure. Ever after.
Princess Aislynn has long dreamed about attending her Introduction Ball, about dancing with the handsome suitors her adviser has chosen for her, about meeting her true love and starting her happily ever after.
When the night of the ball finally arrives and Nerine Academy is awash with roses and royalty, Aislynn wants nothing more than to dance the night away, dutifully following the Path that has been laid out for her. She does not intend to stray.
But try as she might, Aislynn has never quite managed to control the magic that burns within her-magic brought on by wicked, terrible desires that threaten the Path she has vowed to take.
After all, it is wrong to want what you do not need. Isn’t it?
Snow Like Ashes (Snow Like Ashes #1)
by Sara Raasch
Hardcover, 422 pages
Published October 14th 2014 by Balzer + Bray (first published January 1st 2014)
A heartbroken girl. A fierce warrior. A hero in the making.
Sixteen years ago the Kingdom of Winter was conquered and its citizens enslaved, leaving them without magic or a monarch. Now, the Winterians’ only hope for freedom is the eight survivors who managed to escape, and who have been waiting for the opportunity to steal back Winter’s magic and rebuild the kingdom ever since.
Orphaned as an infant during Winter’s defeat, Meira has lived her whole life as a refugee, raised by the Winterians’ general, Sir. Training to be a warrior—and desperately in love with her best friend, and future king, Mather — she would do anything to help her kingdom rise to power again.
So when scouts discover the location of the ancient locket that can restore Winter’s magic, Meira decides to go after it herself. Finally, she’s scaling towers, fighting enemy soldiers, and serving her kingdom just as she’s always dreamed she would. But the mission doesn’t go as planned, and Meira soon finds herself thrust into a world of evil magic and dangerous politics – and ultimately comes to realize that her destiny is not, never has been, her own.
Beware the Wild
by Natalie C. Parker
Hardcover, 336 pages
Published October 21st 2014 by HarperTeen
It’s an oppressively hot and sticky morning in June when Sterling and her brother, Phin, have an argument that compels him to run into the town swamp — the one that strikes fear in all the residents of Sticks, Louisiana. Phin doesn’t return. Instead, a girl named Lenora May climbs out, and now Sterling is the only person in Sticks who remembers her brother ever existed.
Sterling needs to figure out what the swamp’s done with her beloved brother and how Lenora May is connected to his disappearance — and loner boy Heath Durham might be the only one who can help her.
This debut novel is full of atmosphere, twists and turns, and a swoon-worthy romance.

They all look good but I’m most intrigued by Stray. Enjoy your reading!
Love the cover of that one 🙂 thanks for voting Katherine!
I voted for Snow Like Ashes because it had the longest page count and I’m sadistic like that. Hehehe
I almost went to random.org to let it choose for me! That’s how good they all sound, Michelle. Twisty and action-y…I hope you like whichever one is chosen. And I think they’re all going on my tbr. I voted for Snow Like Ashes though. 🙂
LOL That is too funny! That is why I am glad you are all picking for me and I didn’t have to pick 🙂 Thanks for voting Brandee !
I voted for Snow Like Ashes even though I think Stray sounds really good also. I am excited to hear your thoughts.
Thanks for voting Rachael, It seems I really picked some good choices this week. Everyone seems so torn lol
I voted for Stray, even though I already know I really want to read Snow Like Ashes. I’ve heard so much about it, that I don’t need another review. But I do need a review for Stray, since I’ve never heard of that before and it sounds good!
LOL i totally love how you reasoned that out. Sounds good to me 🙂
I voted for Stray. That synopsis just absolutely grabbed me so I would love to see how it turns out!
Thanks for voting Hannah! I am hoping over to your post so I can vote on yours if I haven’t already 🙂
This was tough! It came down to Snow Like Ashes and Beware the Wild. I went with the latter, since it’s on my wishlist but I haven’t seen too many reviews for it yet. 🙂
Thanks for voting Angie. It was a tough choice this week even for me since I want to read them all!
I’ve looked at all of those recently and I’m most curious about Snow Like Ashes, so I picked that one.
Thank you for voting Karsyn 🙂 I am looking forward to reading all of them but I heard good things about Snow like Ashes
So I voted for Stray because I have a paperback ARC of it and I am curious to see what you think of it..but I also have a paperback ARC of Snow Like Ashes and so I was conflicted..lol. That last one I had never heard of but it sounds good too! 🙂
Lol you have the same problem I had. I just wasn’t sure what to pick so either way I will be happy…I hope!
That was a difficult one to choose Michelle! They all sound so good! But I went with Stray, love the cover for it!
I love the cover too 🙂 It pretty much was the main reason I got it. I am a sucker for a pretty cover!
I voted for Snow Like Ashes as I really like the cover and heard a lot of good things about it. I plan on eventualy reading it myself, but would love to read a few more reviews of it first.
This is a popular pick 🙂 I try not to read reviews until I am a good portion into the book but with this one I have heard some good things
I voted for Snow Like Ashes because that’s the one everyone’s read/reading and I want to read too, but I should have voted for Beware the Wild to learn about a book I hadn’t heard of before.
I have seen a lot of people reading Snow Like Ashes and they love it so I hope I feel the same why if it gets picked this week I am loving all the books so I will be happy with what ever is picked
I voted for Snow Like Ashes, because that’s one I really want to read myself 😀
Have a great weekend, Michelle. Happy reading.
Thanks for voting Lexxie. I have heard awesome things about the book 🙂
I voted on Stray as I like the dark fairytale feel that I get from the synopsis. But all 3 sound good really.
It is a very hard pick this week, which is why I am glad I am not picking lol
