So, we’re back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt is: books I loved but never reviewed.
Well, this is probably one of the easiest prompts for me because prior to the tail end of 2018 I never really wrote reviews for the books that I read (whether I loved or hated them) but I did (mostly) leave star ratings on Goodreads! Actually, I realise that plenty of the books that I rave about on my blog are books that I read pre-blogging/reviewing and I’m finding that a little frustrating because I know I loved these books but also my memory is horrible…But I digress!
So I’ve gone on Goodreads and taken a look at all the books I’ve rated five stars and randomly chose ten of them (in no discernible order). Although I’m not much of a re-reader except for some ‘staples’ (like Austen), I’m very tempted to read some of these again just so I can write reviews for them because they definitely deserve it!






The Nickel Boys
ADSOM
The Century Trilogy: Fall of Giants
Natchez Burning
Mistborn: The Final Empire





The Heart’s Invisible Furies
Neverwhere
Pachinko
All the Light We Cannot See
Lunar Chronicles: Cinder

Have you always written reviews for the books you’ve read? What titles have you loved but you didn’t write a review for?

Great list! One of these days I should give the Mistborn books a try, I’ve heard many a good thing about them.

I’d love to write reviews for the books I featured on my TTT as well, but I’m scared of re-reading them… what if I don’t love them??? 😀
«All the Light We Cannot See» was an incredible book. I read it last year and didn’t review, Oops!

Cinder has been on my TBR (and on my shelf) for years. Every time I ask if I should hang on to it or get rid of it I’m told, “you have to read it!” So I still keep it but it’s still unread. LOL

Cinder was such an amazing series! I also really enjoyed A Darker Shade of Magic, but I don’t know if I ever reviewed it either… I really want to read Mistborn!

HA I also haven’t reviewed Mistborn, Cinder & ADSOM and I loved them all… I think it was probably because I hadn’t started blogging when I read them so I suppose I’ll have to give them a re-read 😂. Great post Dini.

I loved A Darker Shade of Magic, wasn’t so keen on Cinder. Reviewed both though, as I read them after I started blogging.

All the Light We Cannot See is one of those books I always planned to read, but never did. Seeing it on your list reminds me that I need to get on it!

Great list! I also love the light we cannot see but I’ve never reviewed it either! I think I would find it really hard to put it all into words. I’m about to start reading the Nickle Boys though so I’m happy to see you loved it:)

I never really reviewed Cinder either (though I did do a series review at some point). It is the book that got me back into reading a few years ago though.

I have what I call “The 2016 Block” which, for some reason, is a weird period during 2016 when I stopped reviewing or logging the books I read for months. Of course now, I have vague memories of plots I’ve read and I can’t find the books! So annoying.

Loved the Lunar Chronicles! I should really reread them sometime.

I LOVE The Lunar Chronicles, and I’ve reread Cinder each time a new book came out. I’ve never reviewed it on the blog, though. I need to do a reread, too. 🙂

I so relate to struggling to remember things. xD I can 100% confirm that without Goodreads, I would never be able to remember what books I’d read. That’s how I put together my TTT almost every week LOL. I just search my Read shelf like the cheater I am.
I have so many of these on my TBR. xD So if you do decide to do a re-read of them, hit me up and we can do a buddy read. 😉
