Top 10 Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
Hey Top 10 Tuesday crew! I can’t believe another month and a half has gone by since I last took part in this meme. This year has just been so crazy!

Big Little Lies is a great summer read. Your list also reminds me that I still need to read We Were Liara. I think that was on my summer TBR last year and I didn't get to it.
π
I really want to read We Were Liars! I have heard good things!
Check out my TTT – http://www.amysbookishlife.co.uk/2018/06/top-ten-tuesday-books-on-my-summer-tbr.html?m=1
It's even better on the second and third read through! I high recommend it! π
Yes, Big Little Lies is definitely filled with drama! Perfect for summer!
Right?! I may have to reread it soon! π
Yes to Big Little Lies and I loved About a boy! Definitely need to throw in there Dating Rules by Keeley Holmes, just recently read that and loved it
Oh! I'll check that one out! Thanks for the recommendation!
Oh, I love pool reading. I enjoyed We Were Liars and About a Boy is one of my favorite books! I still need to read Nimona and A List of Cages – so thanks for the reminder.

They are both SO good!! Enjoy!
I love seeing A List of Cages get a mention. I donβt know why that doesnβt get more attention. That book truly broke my heart and I just wanted to hug Julian and make it all okay.

RIGHT?! Gosh, such an amazing book!
The only one here I've read is Nimona and I grabbed it when it first came out. I loved it and hope you do too. I need to catch up on Sabrina and am anxious for the Netflix series. Although I'll admit Riverdale fell a tad short for me this year. I hope you get some pool time AND get to read all of these.
Oh!! I need to catch up on Sabrina as well!
We Were Liars is a great pool read.
Right?! π
Nimona is a really enjoyable read! I find it interesting that people have themes they read by, like, by season, I admire the planning of it. (I'm a disorganised mess about my TBR…)
Oh my TBR is currently a total mess as well… I have a Christmas book I'm planning to read soon lol!
I love your list π
We Were Liars is perfect for this theme!

Big Little Lies is full of drama! Great choice, loved that book! Great TTT here! π
Me too! I read it while on vacation last year; I couldn't put it down!
Fantastic list! I loved the Big Little Lies show, so I'm really interested in reading the book too!
Both the show and the book are awesome!!
I've been wanting to read About a Boy for AGES and haven't yet. It sounds like it'd be agreat summer read though. Awesome list!!
For sure!! π I hope you can get to it this summer!
The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommends is such a sweet book. π
Isn't it?! I need to reread it soon for sure!
A lot of these books are on my TBR and I need to read them. Thanks for sharing this awesome list.
π Thanks for stopping by!
WE WERE LIARS was sure surprising, as was NIMONA. I really was thrilled with them both. THE READERS OF BROKEN WHEEL RECOMMEND really disappointed me. I think that books about books should have more to do with books! HA!
I was disappointed in Broken Wheel a bit too because of that reason!
Ha!! I totally understand that! π
I love your categories!
Thank you! π
I love these. I like that you broke it down to genre too.
π
I haven't read any of these, but I'm adding a lot of them to my list! I love that you separated them by genre so I have a better idea which ones would work for me. <3
L @ Do You Dog-ear?
Wahoo!! Happy reading! π
I love how you've tackled the list this week! π So many good recommendations. Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier.
Thank you! <3 And thanks for stopping by here as well!
Nimona is such a good choice for reading by the pool – it's such a fun read. And I know I definitely read We Were Liars on the beach, so that is definitely a good pick!
π
Awesome list! I loved The Red Notebook and also The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend…such great books. π
They're both so cute! π
Oh my gosh, Big Little Lies is ALL THE DRAMA! I love how you broke your list down to appeal to different tastes.
Have a great week. – Katie
Thank you! π Have a great week as well!
Great list! I like how you gave a little blurb for each one. A House at the Bottom of the Lake is one I added to my TBR recently after watching an old video of BooksAndLala's, where she talked about it, and it just sounds soooo cool. It's on my wishlist for after my book ban ends!
That's awesome!! It's SO unsettling! Enjoy!
Ooh hope you get some pool time! It's been so hot! Big Little Lies is awesome of course, but We Were Liars- good one! that was a trip. π
Fingers crossed!! π I really need to work on my tan too before September! I can't be as white as my wedding dress! ha!
I love Nimona. It's one of the first graphic novels I picked up and still remains a favorite. Isn't there supposed to be a movie? A List of Cages has been on my TBR for a while. I've heard lots of good things where that one is concerned.
Yeah! I heard rumors about that. Hopefully it didn't get dropped! I very highly recommend A List of Cages! It's sooooo good!
Great list! I want to read Big Little Lies at some point! Hopefully I'll find the opportunity soon!

Happy reading!! π
Awesome list! Nimona was such a great read! It was a lot of fun.
Right?! I need to reread it soon!
I feel like you can never go wrong with a Liane Moriarty book. She is fabulous!
Agreed! π
I love this tag! Such a great list just in time for summer to start this week π
π
These are some great choices, Erica! I have a few on my TBR pile already that I still need to get to. Sunbolt is among them. I have heard such great things about it. The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend was a fun read, wasn't it? I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Thank you! π Yay!! I hope you love Sunbolt, it's such a refreshing YA fantasy!
Great list! I've watched the mini-series for Big little lies but I want to read the book. And it does seem like a great book for summer.
-Adri @ Little Fox & Reads
They did a wonderful job with the TV series! π
We Were Liars!! I remember reading that one year in the summer. The twist! I loved it, and would probably reread it in the future just to see if I pick up anything that I missed first time around.
SO good!! π I want to reread it soon as well!
I adored A List of Cages, it made me so emotional. We Were Liars is another favorite of mine. Great list! π
Same! A List of Cages is such a lovely book!
I recommend A LIST OF CAGES to everyone. That book blew me away. Also, I loved BIG LITTLE LIES (and THE HUSBAND'S SECRET).
Same!!! It's definitely a must-read for all! π
Love how you separated these books into different categories! I watched the tv series of Big Little Lies a few months ago and having been meaning to read the book ever since… hopefully soon!
Yay!! It's really good!! Enjoy!
Awww Nimona!! I need to re-read Nimona soon, I loved it so much! I also would love to read Josh Malerman's book! He's got a new one too I think! I need to get on that. π
π
Big Little Lies is a perfect poolside read! Great list π
π
Nimona and Big Little Lies would make awesome pool reads.
