Top Ten Tuesday: Books I'm Dying to Read

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish,
Now, hosted by Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl 

To take part, just pick your top ten, and add the link here.

I sat here most of Monday trying to draft a list of characters who had/have a job that I'd want to have, and I kept drawing up a blank. I think I read too many books that have the characters in consistent danger of dying for me to want their job. So I grabbed a topic from the distant past for this week's TTT. 

   She Who Became the Sun (The Radiant Emperor #1) by Shelley Parker-Chan 

 Everything about this book sounds amazing. I've had my eye on it since I heard about it.

   Legend of the Lakes (The Once and Future Queen #3) by Clara O'Connor 

I require this book so much. I read the first two from NetGalley, and the second one isn't even out yet, but I really need this book. The second book ends on a massive cliffhanger (the first one does too) but damn, the way the second one ends... I don't want to wait at all for this book. 

   Broken Web (Shamanborn #2) by Lori M. Lee

I read the first book early this year, and it is so good. I am really looking forward to this sequel.

   Cast in Firelight (Wickery #1) by Dana Swift

The synopsis just sounds really good. I really love the enemies to lovers trope.

   Remote Control by Nnedi Okorafor - 

With the tag line being "She’s the adopted daughter of the Angel of Death. Beware of her. Mind her. Death guards her like one of its own.", how can I not read this?

   Of Fire and Water (Heir of Blood and Fire #2) by Cameo Renae

Another one where I read the first book (semi) recently and was fully hooked by everything from the setting to the characters and plot

   Star Eater by Kerstin Hall

I've read a few ARC reviews for this one, and I can't wait for it to come out so I can read it.

   

   Daughter of the Salt King (Salt Chasers #1) by A.S. Thornton

Another one where the synopsis drew me in. I know nothing about this book beyond the synopsis, but it just sounds like it could be a fun read.

   Odin's Child (Ravneringene #1) by Siri Pettersen

I found this when I was looking for fantasy based on Norse mythology. I have a copy from NetGalley, so I hope I can get to it soon.

   Iron Widow (Iron Widow #1) by Xiran Jay Zhao

I found out about this book when the author, posted a video talking about all the things the Live-Action Mulan got wrong. (I highly recommend checking out her YouTube by the way.) But this book also sounds great. I am really looking forward to reading it.
