Books I'm Taking To College

It's official - I'm a college student! As you're reading this, I'm going through orientation, which means that this post (and probably most future ones for the time being) have been written well in advance and I'm probably going to be even slower than usual at responding to comments and visiting other people's blogs. But I'll still be hesre! (Sometimes.)

There's a lot of preparation that goes into moving 3,000 miles away for college, and for a bookworm, one of the most important parts of planning is deciding which books to take with you. Unfortunately, my dorm room isn't quite big enough to hold all my books. At least not if I want to have anything else with me. I managed to get my list of books down to a total of 29, plus two pre-orders that are going to be here in a few days but that I'm technically not taking with me. So here's what I'm going to have physical copies of for the foreseeable future!

FAVORITES







TBR - YA/ADULT FICTION





TBR - CLASSICS



TBR - NONFICTION


PRE-ORDERS


Have you had to cope with reduced bookshelves? Why? How long do you think these books are going to last me? Tell me in the comments!

Ten Books I Need More People to Love

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and Bookish. This week's theme: Top Ten Underrated/Hidden Gem Books You've Read in the Past Year or So. One of my favorite things to do is get other people to read books I love. That way, I can discuss the boo ks with them, and if I know their tastes well enough, I know I'm givin g them something that they'll love! Unfortunately, I can't do this with the entire world. And that means that there are books that I've really enjoyed t hat just aren't widely loved. Why ? I don't know. And that's why I spend so much time trying to get other people to read them. Here are ten books I've read some what recently that I think really deserve some m ore lo ve. IRON CAST by Destiny Soria: I'll never get tired of diverse books, I 'll never get tired of historical fiction, and I'll never get tired of positive female friendships. When you pu t those all together, they ma ke a book tha...

Ten Books I Wouldn't Mind Getting for Chanukah

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and the Bookish. This week's theme: Top Ten Books You Wouldn't Mind Santa Leaving Under Your Tree (with a slight alteration). I'm probably one of the easiest people to shop for. If you have the link to my Goodreads, you're basically guaranteed to get me something I'll like. (And even if you don't, I'm really not hard to please.) But, of course, there are some books that I'm more excited for than others. Here are ten that I would be absolutely thrilled to get as gifts this year. GEMINA by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff: The more I think about how great this book is going to be, the more I want it. And it's so pretty! P.S. I LIKE YOU by Kasie West: I love Kasie West! Her contemporaries are all so adorable - I can't believe I haven't read this one yet. THE SECRET KEEPERS by Trenton Lee Stewart: Finally, another book from the author of my favorite middle grade series ever! I...

Top Ten 2017 Debuts I'm Excited For

Happy new year, everyone! I love Ne w Year's - there 's just so mething so wonderful about the idea of a fresh start. (Especially after 2016.) I have a feeling that 2017 is going to be a great yea r here at Lost in My Library. In a co mpletely unrelated celebration, this is my 100th post! This some how feels a lot m ore tangible than my blogoversary last week, but i t's just as unbeli evable to me . It turns out that out of all of the 2017 books I'm excited for, there aren't a ton of debuts. There are a lot of books by authors I haven't read before, but a bunch of those are actually the author's second or third book. But there are enough debuts that I'm pretty excited for everything on this list. Almost all of these wil l be pu blished in the first half of the y ear, which I'm a little surprised at - I guess it's just because I know more about those books.   WAIT FOR ME by Caroline Leech ( January 31): I love historical ficti...
