Top Ten Tuesday: Books on my TBR I predict will be 5 star reads

Hello, and happy Tuesday! Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl, and how it works is each week there is a topic and you make a list of your top 5, 10 or whatever number of books that fit that topic. This week’s topic is books on my TBR (to be read) that I predict will be 5 star reads! I’m going to keep this pretty quick, and only do a few books though, so let’s get right to it!

1 The Silvered Serpents, by Roshani Chokshi

I just finished the Gilded Wolves and it is AMAZING! I have no idea how I’m going to wait until September 22 for this book to come out! I absolutely loved the Gilded Wolves; the writing, the plot, the characters, even the cover is enough to get anyone interested! Anyways, I loved Roshani Chokshi’s style of writing, and I cannot wait to read more of her books, and I loved the history blended with the magic in the Gilded Wolves, so as the Silvered Serpents is in the same universe, I can’t wait!

2 To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee

I’m actually holding off on reading this until next year, because we read it in school, but I’m really excited to read this classic!

3 Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen

My great aunt recently gave me a copy of this, and I just really want to read it and I think I’ll really enjoy it!

Anyways, I’m going to wrap this up with only four books. It’s been freezing where I live, (it was 28 degrees this morning) and I really hope that it snows, because even though it only actually snow every few years in where I live, it always so fun when it does! So I really really hope snows!

What are some books that you predict will be five star reads? Have you read any of the books I mentioned? Does it snow where you live? Do you enjoy the snow? Chat with me in the comments below!

Happy reading!
