Top 5 Wednesday/ 

Books You Didn't Get to In 2017 

These are the books that I didn't get to in 2017 that I plan on reading this year.

Top 5 Wednesday is a group created by Lainey of Ginger Reads Lainey on Booktube. It is now hosted by Sam of Thoughts on Tomes on Booktube. Here is a link to the group on Goodreads if you are interested in joining. 

1. S by J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst

This is a book that I have wanted to read for years and I will be picking it up most likely this month. I have been waiting to read this for when I had the time and now I just look forward to it so much. The premise of it intrigues me and I will be making time for it pretty soon. I can't wait. 

2. Cinder by Marissa Meyer: 

I have been wanting to get into this series for years. Retellings are sort of my favorite thing, well at least one of them. And these books have a science fiction twist, which is awesome. Also, I really loved Marissa Meyer's Heartless. So I need to read this soon. 

3. The Beauty and the Beast 
by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, MinaLima (Illustrator):

Yet another classic that I would love to read this year. I have known the story for years because of the Disney version but I have always wanted to read the original. This version looks so gorgeous and I cannot wait to experience it. The MinaLima collection of classics are my favorites. They are the best. 

4. The Inkheart series by Cornelia Funke:

This is another series that I wanted to finish off last year but never did. I read Inkheart years ago but have never finished the series for various reasons. One of them being the fact that I was spoiled for a major plot point that sort of makes me not want to continue. It makes me sad though because I adored the first book. This is one that I hope to get the motivation to read this year. We will see. 

5. The Book Thief by Markus Zusack: 

Another book that I have heard nothing but amazing things about. I have been wanting to read this one for years and I plan on trying to get to it soon. Most likely, I'll pick up the audiobook. I have heard pieces of it before and loved what I heard.
