Top Ten Tuesday is an original blog meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and is currently being hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is “Freebie (come up with your own topic!).” I had so many ideas for this week, but didn’t really have the time to sit down and do them. But that’s okay because one thing I will always have is an absurd number of books on my TBR. For this week’s topic, I am highlighting ten upcoming adult fantasy novels on my TBR. My bank account weeps. Covers linked to Goodreads.
1. Fevered Star by Rebecca Roanhorse
2. Kaikeyi by Vaishnavi Patel
3. The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah
4. Juniper & Thorn by Ava Reid
5. The Ballad of Perilous Graves by Alex Jennings
6. The Monsters We Defy by Leslye Penelope
7. The Oleander Sword by Tasha Suri
8. The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
9. Babel, or The Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators’ Revolution by R.F. Kuang
10. Even Though I Knew the End by C. L. Polk
Are any of these on your TBR? What’s an upcoming adult fantasy book on your TBR? Let me know in the comments and be sure to leave me a link to your own TTT post, so I can visit!

I am so bad about actually reading the books on my TBR. I need to seriously consider how I add books to my list.

The Society of Irregular Witches looks really cute, and I like the title of Juniper & Thorn!! These all look great! I don’t think I have many adult fantasy books coming up on my reading list, which is unusual for me. My next is probably A Mirror Mended by Alix E. Harrow. Hope you enjoy all of these!

I haven’t done a ton of oreordering this year, but I definitely will be doing so for Babel. Everyone who has gotten an early copy is in love with it. Irregular Witches just sounds like a good time. I need more cozy witch books in my life.

I wasn’t that keen on The Poppy War but I am intrigued by Babel, I’m wanting to try more dark academia (though am hoping it’s not as graphic as certain parts of The Poppy War!).

I really don’t know, but I think the academic setting probably won’t yield quite the blood shed that The Poppy War did.

I am SO excited for Fevered Star! I have it pre-ordered, of course! Also very excited for The Ballad of Perilous Graves and Kaikeyi! The Monsters We Defy is new to me, but it sounds AMAZING (and okay fine the cover is perfection too hah) so I have added that! Great choice of topic- also, I feel you about the bank account problem heh.
