Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl!

This week’s prompt was ten books that live in your head rent-free. My only problem with this one is I feel it would just be a repeat of my top books so I am changing the prompt a bit. I will look at books that I HOPE will live in my head once I do eventually get to them 🙂 Also to narrow down the results, I will be going down the alphabet! Starting with the A’s today 🙂

*Clicking on the cover will take you to Goodreads*

Academy of Outcasts – Experience this epic new saga from LARRY CORREIA, award-winning author of Monster Hunter International and Saga of the Forgotten Warrior. This progression fantasy epic features a D&D-inspired setting split by portals into elemental realms, slow-growth power progression, magic academies, and unforgettable characters! (Goodreads)
*This seems perfect to me to branch out into new territories! I love D&D and portal stories as well.*

Accidental Address – When an incorrectly addressed email finds its way into the inbox of Julian Vasquez, he chooses to respond anyway. What begins as a fun distraction develops into so much more. (Goodreads)
*I have not really branched off into novellas but for such a quick read, I am hoping it sticks in my head*

The Affinity Collector – This story contains LitRPG progression mechanics and stats, as well as isekai/portal fantasy elements. Contains no sexual content or harems. (Goodreads)
*My husband reads alot of Isekai comics so I am trying to get into the novel version. I have seen some Isekai anime that I enjoyed so hopefully that translates!*

Alliance Bride – Norse-inspired romantasy that is faith-filled and no-spice. (Goodreads)
*I love Norse related stuff since my family came from Norway, and throw in the faith and no spice, PERFECT!*

Alpha – A pack broken. A pup in danger. A submissive wolf who will fight with her last breath. (Goodreads)
*I used to be heavily into shapeshifting romance so I kind of want to dip my foot back in. This is supposed to have no spice per romance.io so hopefully it will be a-ok*

Any House in a Storm – Any House in a Storm is a beauty and the beast tale set in an otherworldly, space-traveling darkhouse where nothing is as it seems and no one who enters remains unchanged. (Goodreads)
*First off, I highly prefer the cover on Goodreads to the one I used. Secondly, this book sounds very much like a Howl’s Moving Castle vibe and I am all for that!*

As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow – A love letter to Syria and its people, As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow is a speculative novel set amid the Syrian Revolution, burning with the fires of hope, love, and possibility. Perfect for fans of The Book Thief and Salt to the Sea. (Amazon)
*I am all for Historical Fiction and I have not read one about the Syrian Revolution so I am hoping to gain some insight and empathy for those who went through that horrendous period*

Ascending – Twenty-five years ago the Vardeshi came to Earth. Then they vanished without a trace. Graduate student Avery Alcott always knew they would return. When they do, she’s the only one who can speak their language. She’s quickly recruited to join the crew of an 11-man starship on a one-year mission into the depths of space…. (Goodreads)
*I used to be heavy into science fiction as well so I would like to read another amazing journey and have it emblazoned into my memory.*

AshFall – For fans of classics like C. S. Lewis’s Narnia and the modern fantasies of the Shadowhunter Chronicles and Once Upon a Broken Heart, the second installment of the Flameheart Chronicles is a harrowing journey into the dark night of the soul–and the hope we cling to for a story that will never end. (Amazon)
*This one is a bit of a cheatsey doodle since I have read the first in the series and enjoyed it. I obviously expect the same for the sequel, such an amazing adventure!*

Autumn by the Sea – Get swept away to the seaside in Maine in this captivating romance brimming with mystery (Amazon)
*I am trying to give romance mysteries more of a chance and this one does sound quite intriguing and has some good reviews so I am remaining hopefully that this one sticks with me!*
