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 monthly MEME and you are more than welcome to join me. Just create a blog post with your three books and link the post below. Need the full rules? No problem, you can find them all right HERE. Don’t forget to stop by the blogs on the linky below to help the other bloggers by voting on their next read!
I thought we can keep up with each list with the hashtag #MyTBRL so add that to the end of your post so if you can’t get to the linky we can still find you 🙂
So this month I picked
Time to get those books on my shelf read. I think this might be a hard choice, I know I couldn’t decided what to read first…so good luck! 😉
Daughter of the Burning City
by Amanda Foody
Hardcover, 384 pages
Published July 25th 2017 by Harlequin Teen
Sixteen-year-old Sorina has spent most of her life within the smoldering borders of the Gomorrah Festival. Yet even among the many unusual members of the traveling circus-city, Sorina stands apart as the only illusion-worker born in hundreds of years. This rare talent allows her to create illusions that others can see, feel and touch, with personalities all their own. Her creations are her family, and together they make up the cast of the Festival’s Freak Show.
But no matter how lifelike they may seem, her illusions are still just that—illusions, and not truly real. Or so she always believed…until one of them is murdered.
Desperate to protect her family, Sorina must track down the culprit and determine how they killed a person who doesn’t actually exist. Her search for answers leads her to the self-proclaimed gossip-worker Luca, and their investigation sends them through a haze of political turmoil and forbidden romance, and into the most sinister corners of the Festival. But as the killer continues murdering Sorina’s illusions one by one, she must unravel the horrifying truth before all of her loved ones disappear.
Caraval (Caraval #1)
by Stephanie Garber
Hardcover, 407 pages
Published January 31st 2017 by Flatiron Books
Remember, it’s only a game…
Scarlett Dragna has never left the tiny island where she and her sister, Tella, live with their powerful, and cruel, father. Now Scarlett’s father has arranged a marriage for her, and Scarlett thinks her dreams of seeing Caraval—the faraway, once-a-year performance where the audience participates in the show—are over.
But this year, Scarlett’s long-dreamt-of invitation finally arrives. With the help of a mysterious sailor, Tella whisks Scarlett away to the show. Only, as soon as they arrive, Tella is kidnapped by Caraval’s mastermind organizer, Legend. It turns out that this season’s Caraval revolves around Tella, and whoever finds her first is the winner.
Scarlett has been told that everything that happens during Caraval is only an elaborate performance. Nevertheless she becomes enmeshed in a game of love, heartbreak, and magic. And whether Caraval is real or not, Scarlett must find Tella before the five nights of the game are over or a dangerous domino effect of consequences will be set off, and her beloved sister will disappear forever.
Welcome, welcome to Caraval…beware of getting swept too far away.
Daughter of Smoke & Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone #1)
by Laini Taylor
Hardcover, US, 422 pages
Published September 27th 2011 by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Around the world, black hand prints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky.
In a dark and dusty shop, a devil’s supply of human teeth grows dangerously low.
And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherworldly war.
Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real, she’s prone to disappearing on mysterious “errands”, she speaks many languages – not all of them human – and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she’s about to find out.
When beautiful, haunted Akiva fixes fiery eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?

Check back next week to see which one I will be reading!
Have a great day and Happy Reading!
I loved Daughter of Smoke and Bone, but Caraval is one of my favorite reads from this year so I voted for that one. I hope you enjoy whatever book wins. I haven’t read Daughter of the Burning City, but it’s on my TBR list for one of these days 😉
That was a tough one! I have read Daughter of Smoke and Bone and liked it, Caravel I started listening to and didn’t like the narrator or the way the story was going, but still it is popular, so I might try again just reading. And Daughter of the Burning city looks interesting! I went with Smoke and Bone because I know that one is good.
I’m still reading my August book, so no poll for me this time, but I love voting for everyone else!
Great set of books you got there! I voted for Caraval!
I voted for Caraval because I started it and was loving it but my audiobook expired so I didn’t get to finish it.
I picked Caraval as it sound cool and I am curious to see your thoughts. 🙂
I like the sound of all of these, but Daughter of Smoke and Bone is the only one on my TBR pile, so I went with that one. Maybe if you like it, I will be motivated to finally read it! I hope you enjoy whichever wins, Michelle! Have a great weekend!
Lol Thanks for voting, I am excited to see which one wins. I do that the whole series for Smoke and Bones so I can keep going if the first one wins.
I went with Daughter of Smoke and Bone because I have heard great things!
Thanks for voting Grace, I have the series so if it wins, I might continue.
I voted for Daughter of Smoke & Bone because it’s the only one I’ve read. I really enjoyed it!
I have the entire series, so if I like the first I will continue (if it wins)
