So, this weeks posts are going to be pretty basic and written very far in advance. As it turns out as you are reading this I am preparing to go away or I am already away on vacation. I am lucky enough to be able to go on vacation for the first time in YEARS, but I did not want to leave you guys without content so this week I am going to talk about my TBR and the books on it.
Today’s post is going to be listing the 5 top rated books that I have on my owned TBR. I am excited to see which ones are rated the highest.
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
Rating: 4.7
This is a second book in a series, so I am not going to post the description here because I rather not spoil anything. I have read this in part already, but I need to finish it up ASAP before I forget everything that has happened.
The Heart’s Invisible Furies by John Boyne
Rating: 4.47
I read the first chapter of this a while ago in a try a chapter post, Let’s Talk | Try a Chapter April 2018 and I loved the first chapter so I can see why it rated so highly.
Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor
Rating: 4.37
I keep hearing awesome things about this novel and when I saw that audible was having a sale I picked this up for what felt like a steal. I am very happy to see that it is rated so highly and I hope to get to it in the near future. I think we should start a count on how many times I say, “I hope to get to this soon” or phrases along those lines.
East of Eden by John Steinbeck
Rating: 4.36
I read this many, many years ago and I remember liking it. Sadly, I do not remember anything that happened because it was so long ago and it was for study instead of for enjoyment. I have realized a lot of books I have read in a school setting I don’t remember as long as when I read things for pleasure.
The Stand by Stephen King
Rating: 4.34
This monster of a novel, I mean it is a Stephen King novel what else should I expect? I bought this many a few months ago and I am reading his books in order I acquire them. Since I have quite a few I need to get to I will not read this until most likely next year. I am excited to see that it is rated so highly.
I’m currently reading Children of Blood and Bone, so that was probably my most recent highly-rated book that I’ve been wanting to read! I also really want to read Moby Dick at some point soon because I love nautical things.

I am glad you liked that book so much. I have yet to pick it up, I put it on hold at my library and the wait is kinda long. lol. I also have been interested in reading Moby Dick since it is often referred to in other media. I am planning on finishing my current unread classics before getting more though. Happy Reading!

This is a great idea for a post! The highest rated book on my tbr (ignoring all the 5* books that haven’t been released yet) is The stormlight archive by Brandon Sanderson

Thanks! I figured it was a nice one to let people know the books I want to read. I have yet to read a Brandon Sanderson book, I keep hearing great things about his books though. I hope you like it when you get to read it!
