Top Ten Tuesday: Books I had to buy BUT still haven't read

We all have those impulse-buy moments and have been guilty of hoarding books like it's the end of the world or something and to be honest, I am one of those.  This weeks' TTT is something close to my heart as I am a notorious impulse-buyer and some of the books end up gathering digital dust in my Nook.

Here are my top 10:

Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl

The series was on sale the week of the movie release for $2.99 and I went ahead and bought the first book.  But naturally, I haven't read it yet.

Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

I finished reading and reviewed Cinder and because I hated the cliffhanger ending so I impulse bought (I really hate it when this happens) the second book Scarlet.  I read like a coule of pages but then stopped.  This is still waiting to be completely read.

The Bride Wore Pearls by Liz Carlyle

This had a really interesting blurb and I love anything by Liz Carlyle.  This is still on my currently reading list and I have read a few pages of this.

Princess in Love by Julianne MacLean

Who doesn't love stories about princesses?  I automatically bought this book since Julianne is one of my auto-buy authors but as usual, this book has been sitting in my Nook gathering digital dust.

Unmasked by Colette Gale

This is an erotic version of The Phantom of the Opera and when I read the blurb I was intrigued and I had to buy it.  I mean, who doesn't want to read about an erotic version of The Phantom especially if the hero we are talking about is the Phantom?  Sadly, it has been gathering dust in my Nook.  Hopefully, I will be able to get to this soon.

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

Yup, I succumed and bought this book on a whim but haven't even read it yet.  Seen the movie but haven't read it.  I know, I suck.

A Long Long Sleep by Anna Sheehan

A YA retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a Sci-Fi/Futuristic twist to it.  I bought this on a whim when I read a review on one of the blogs while on a Top Ten Tuesday hop (I knew this meme was important! LOL).  I am still aching to read this but unfortunately, I still have others on my TBR pile and I have been reading and reviewing a good deal of YA lately so...

Undone by Lila DiPasqua

I pre-ordered this ebook once it was available and I still haven't read it.  This is an erotic retelling of the famour Rapunzel fairy-tale set in France.  I thought this was interesting but had been bumped down my TBR list for a year now.

Seven Nights in a Rogue's Bed by Anna Campbell

I love Miss Campbell and I loved the blurb so much that I just had to click buy!  Unfortunatelt, I just haven't gotten around to reading the book yet.

To Marry an Heiress by Lorraine Heath

I have been reading Miss Heath's back list and this one ended up getting pushed down the TBR pile.  I bought this when I was on a Lorraine Heath reading marathon and finished 4 books in a week last year.  This one was the 5th that I bought.

Top Ten Tuesday: The Spring 2013 TBR List

It's Tuesday again and today's list will be my TBR Spring list.  Hopefully I will be able to knock each of these books down once some of them are available.

       
What's on your list?

Monthly Mini: March TBR

A new month is here!  I'm pretty excited this much as this month marks our 5th wedding anniversary!  I still can't believe that we made it to 5 years.  This marks 11 years of us being together.  Anyway, on to my list.

I saw Beautiful Creatures on the Big Screen last month and I was intrigued.  The movie was pretty meh for me but the premise of the whole series caught my attention.  Plus, the series was discounted during the movie premiere week so I bought my copy.

I also bought By Love Unveiled by Sabrina Jeffries which I had already pre-ordered last year. I am almost done with the whole book and I am loving it, so far!

I started The Bride Wore Pearls by Liz Carlyle earlier this month but I have put it on hold as of now. I wasn't captured by this book as I had hoped.  I am still waiting for the right mood to read this.

I also signed up for NetGalley and got two egalleys: Lover Be Mine by Nicole Jordan and A Woman Entangled by Cecilia Grant.  I will be reviewing these two and will read Lover Be Mine next.

Lastly, I borrowed Passion by Lauren Kate from the library.  Haven't I just mentioned that I ♥ the Public Library?  Being able to borrow ebooks is awesome!  I am not really as excited to read this book since I didn't like the previous one but I just want to finish the whole series.

I am crossing my fingers and hoping for the best this month.  Hopefully, I will be able to read at least half of these books!  On the good side, I am almost done with ONE!

Oh and yeah, I have to say that I failed the February Mini Challenge.

What is on your March TBR list?

Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.

My pick this week is a re-issue.

By Love Unveiled

Sabrina Jeffries

Pub Date: Feb 26 by Pocket Books

Genre: Historical Romance

Miss Marianne Winchilsea is running for her life from those whom she believes have attempted to kill the king. Forced to disguise herself, she trusts no one—especially not Garett Lockwood, the Earl of Falkham, who usurped her family home and who seems to be her most dangerous enemy.

And what Garett sees behind her masquerade is a beautiful half gypsy enrobed in mystery, deception, and burning secrets. A woman he should avoid at all costs.

In a world where treachery and betrayal reign, a sweet seduction rules their hearts—and dares them to risk their destinies on a passionate love that all the powerful forces of the world cannot defeat.

It is a re-issue and I haven't read the book yet!  It's almost here!
