It’s time for Top 5 Wednesdays, a weekly meme created by gingerreadslainey and hosted by Sam @ThoughtsOnTomes. If you want to know more or join as well, just go to the Goodreads group by clicking here. Gosh, I haven’t done one of these in a really long time, but it’s always nice to showcase some of my favourite books and seen as that’s the topic of today – here I am!
Give some love to those books that aren’t as widely talked about. Those hidden gems. Those books that maybe used to be popular but people have forgotten about and they still deserve some love.
I think this is all really self-explanatory, so here are my books!
What are some of your favourite underrated books? Tell me all about it!
The Serpent King is following me everywhere, haha! I wish I could see The Dali Deception more on readers’ list, it’s a real good heist story with some of the most interesting characters.

I like heist stories, but somehow more so in films than in books … if that makes any sense.

Yep, totally. I think they’re awesome for scenarios, the action and danger might be more palpable in movies 🙂

My Life Next Door ❤ I failed in my yearly re-read of this book but I am so going to re-read it this year. I just need a Jase Garret in my life haha. I will read The Serpent King as well. I have a copy so I have no excuse haha.

YES, READ ALL THE BOOKS! You already know about the lovely Garretts, so no need to convince you on that BUT PICK UP THAT SERPENT KING!!! It broke my heart into a million pieces even though I thought I might not like it in the beginning. But it was SO good! I already pre-ordered Jeff Zentner’s new book.

That’s cool! It’s very different to its predecessor but a sweet story nonetheless. The romancing wasn’t my favourite part though, but I won’t give away anything. Hope you enjoy! 😀

I was a little skeptical if I even wanted to read it, but I miss the Garret family and since it’s from my library anyway nothing wasted if I end up not liking. But I hope I do!
