May T.B.R. List

First off, I was contemplating whether to read the rest of Praying for Mercy by Patricia Briggs, but I decided to wait, while I enjoyed the first book of the three it didn't make me want/or excited to read the next two, so I'm probably going to read the next two when I'm getting further down on the number of how many T.B.R. books I have left to read. So I quite possibly won't be read them until later this year, or next year, Although if I'm feeling up to it and I'm done with the rest of the books on my reading list for May, I may read it this month. Now, onto the list.

#1
Wicked Lovely (Wicked Lovely Book #1 of 5) by Melissa Marr




















After I started reading Zombies Vs. Unicorns I got excited to read more supernatural/fantasy type of books, so I started looking around online and happened upon this book, I also so heard that there was an interesting love triangle in the series so I decide why not give it a try, also while I've read and skimmed quite a few supernatural books I have yet to read a fairy book.

#2
Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass Book #1 of 6) by Sarah J. Maas





















I had seen a video on PeruseProject's youtube channel with this book and right away I fell in love with the cover, then I heard the summery and I fell in love with that, so I decide that I needed to have this book in my life. I've heard quite a few good things about this book so I'm excited to read it.

#3
Frankenstein by Mary Shelley





















I have been wanting to read this for a while, also I'm a little embarrassed that I haven't read this before now, it's been on my bookshelf for a while now.

#4
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte















I have had this one my To Buy List for a few years now, I had been searching for this book at goodwill for just as long, I finally found it this year at a goodwill. I am really excited to finally read this. I have never seen, nor do I own any of the movie adaptations so I will not have any comparisons in my review for the book.

#5
A Great and Terrible Beauty (Gemma Doyle Book #1 of 3) by Libba Bray





















I had this series on my To Buy List for a little while before I happened upon this book and the second one in the series at goodwill, I was definitely excited to find those two. I have heard really good things about this series so I am definitely looking forward to read to reading this one.

#6
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter Book #3 of 7) by J.K. Rowling




















If you've read my March T.B.R. post, or my review for the first Harry Potter book then you know that I have read this book once before the Christmas before the movie came out, you will also know that I have only read this one before out of the series, and had only seen the first three movies all the way through, and I have only seen bits and pieces of the other movies. So going off that I have also made sure not to spoil myself with things that happen not only in the books, but also in the movies. I really enjoyed the first two of these books. While like I said I have read this before, the first time I read it I was sick, and I also had not really remembered much of the first two movies, so I didn't really enjoy it as much as I probably would/could have, so I really excited to read this again having read the first two books now.

I only have six on my list this month, but if I finish these books before the month is through I will probably finish Praying for Mercy or get through some of the books I have high on my T.B.R. list.

Hope everybody had/has a great day : )
