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. Don’t forget to stop by the blogs on the linky below to help them vote on there next read!
I want to try and squeeze so much at the end of this year and being the last My TBR List of 2015 I wanted to make the entries a mix of different book. These have all been on my kindle for some time now so I am excited to see which one you all will pick for me!
So this month I picked

The Bagman (The Abigail Cobble Trilogy #1)
by Rachael Rippon
312 pages
In the midst of the Second World War, Abigail is deposited at St Winifred’s Orphanage for Willful, Wayward and Wicked Children. As soon as she arrives, Abigail is warned of the Bagman and what will happen if she misbehaves. But Abigail is too busy trying to escape to listen. Her estranged twin, Tabitha, is close by and Abigail has to find her before their 16th birthdays. Besides, she doesn’t believe in the Bagman.
He believes in her though. Appearing when she least expects it; he asks her to play his Game. He will give her seven wishes to be used in seven days. But the Game is not as easy as Abigail supposes, and the wishes not as nice…
Soon, Abigail is getting exactly what she wished for. And the effects are catastrophic.
Chasing the Star Garden (The Airship Racing Chronicles #1)
by Melanie Karsak
325 pages
An opium-addicted beauty.
An infamous poet living in self-imposed exile.
An ancient treasure about to fall into the wrong hands.
Melanie Karsak’s Chasing the Star Garden takes readers on a thrilling adventure from the gritty opium dens of gaslamp London to the gem-colored waters of the ancient world. Lily Stargazer, a loveable but reckless airship racer with a famous lover and shattered past, reluctantly plunges into a centuries-old mystery in a romantic adventure best described as Dan Brown meets Mary Shelley.
It all begins on one of the worst days of Lily’s life. She just lost the London leg of the 1823 Airship Grand Prix. To top it off, a harlequin fleeing from constables shoved a kaleidoscope down her pants, told her to fly to Venice, then threw himself from her airship tower. What’s a girl to do? For Lily, the answer is easy: drink absinthe and smoke opium.
Lily’s lover, Lord Byron, encourages her to make the trip to Venice. Lily soon finds herself at the heart of an ancient mystery which has her running from her past and chasing true love and the stars along the way.
*Due to steamy scenes and depictions of drug use, this novel is intended for mature readers.

Thank you so much for voting!!! 🙂
I’m choosing Chasing the Star Garden just because it sounds like a wild ride full of mystery and adventure!
Fun meme, I’m a little late but I’m going to join in today 🙂
Thanks for vote! So happy you are going to join! I will stop by to vote on your picks 🙂
I haven’t even heard of any of these, Michelle, but I chose Chasing The Star Garden, just because I liked the blurb and the cover.
I hope you’ve had a fantastic weekend. Happy reading 🙂
I’m planning on participating in this next year as my random reads goal for 2015. This year I did a meme called random reads where I picked a new book each month based on a random number generator. My plan for next year is that I will pick the books to read each month through the random number generator and then let my readers choose. It will be a challenge to keep up with this, but I hope to keep up throughout the year. I voted for Chasing the Star Garden. I hope you enjoy.
Glad you will be joining 🙂 We have a challenge that has to do with sticking to certain reads. You can find it on the link above called 2015 Assignment Challenge. It might be something you would be interested in 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and voting
None of these appeal to me but I love the colors on the cover of Chasing the Star Garden. I picked Dark & Day though.
Thank you for voting 🙂 This was a tough month to pick for but I appreciate you voting!!!
Haven’t heard of any of those, so I went for The Bagman, because I love books that have some kind of “game” in it. I hope it’s full of some kind of game and is a fun read, if it gets picked. 🙂 Enjoy!
Thank you, I loved the wishes part and how it turns into a disaster 🙂
I voted for the Bagman, Michelle. When I read that synopsis I was hooked. But I to admit that Chasing the Star Garden sounds really, really good, too. 🙂 I hope you enjoy whichever is chosen!
Thank you 🙂 The bagman really does look good and they have a second one already out so if it’s good I might grab it!
So it was a toss up between The Bagman and Dark & Day, but I went with The Bagman. I must say I haven’t heard of any of those choice so I will be curious to see when one wins and how you like it. 🙂
I hadn’t heard of these before, but I really like the cover of The Bagman! It sounds interesting, too. 🙂
I’m with Carol, The Bagman grabbed me – the others not so much. I like the noir feel of that cover too. Can’t wait to see what gets picked 🙂
These all look good, they all have nice covers as well. I voted for Chasing the Star Garden as I like the steampunk feel of that one.
The Bagman was the only one to really grab my interest. 🙂
