Hey guys!!! It’s time again for another Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.This week’s theme is Books I Hope to Find Under My Tree. This is such a fun Christmas related theme. I feel each year I always ask for books I wanted but didn’t end up purchasing. This year I didn’t really get any books for my birthday so I’ve been looking forward to hopefully getting some for Christmas! So let’s dive in and see what I hope to find under my tree this year!
The Starless Sea By Erin Morgenstern
Reason: I read Night Circus by Erin a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. So the moment I heard she was coming out with another book I knew I needed it. Plus the summary sounds amazing. This is the main book I hope to get this Christmas!
Imaginary Friend By Stephen Chbosky
Reason: I read Perks of Being a Wallflower years ago and loved it. So when I heard Stephen was coming out with an adult spooky novel, I knew I had to check it out. I really wanted to pick it up but never did.
The Apocalypse Suite (The Umbrella Academy) Vol. 1 By Gerard Way , Gabriel Bá , Dave Stewart
Reason: So I’m a huge Gerard Way fan. Still freaking out over MCR reuniting the other day. Hoping for some tour dates soon. Anyway after finding out he wrote a comic, I knew I had to check it out. Plus I wanna watch the show at some point so thought I’d get started reading the comics.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vol. 1: The Crucible By Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, Robert Hack
Reason: I was a huge fan of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I believe this is a creepier version of that. I’ve been wanting to check this out for a while. Plus Netflix turned it into a TV show and I’ve been meaning to watch that. I just haven’t so might as well check out the comics.
Tokyo Ghoul Monster Edition 4-5-6 By Sui Ishida
Reason: So I recently discovered Tokyo Ghoul. I bought Volume 1 of the Monster Edition. I haven’t read it yet. However I did read the first volume and really enjoyed it. So I put the second volume on my list to help push me to continue the series. I also know there is a TV show this and I really want to watch it.
Reason: Well I already own all the Harry Potter books. I just really need these illustration versions. I went to this Harry Potter exhibit last year and just loved all of Jim Kay’s artwork. I didn’t realize he did the illustrated books until after that. So must collect them all.
Reason: Like I said before I just need to own these. The artwork is so well done and I feel it really adds to the book. It’s so beautiful and feel it just adds to the experience of reading it.
Reason: This is my favorite Harry Potter book in the series. So I can only imagine how awesome the illustrations are for this book! This has been the one I’ve been waiting for. I am so happy it finally ended up coming out this year. I can’t wait to reread the series with the added illustrations.
Those are all the books I asked for this Christmas. I tried not to ask for too many because I have so many books I still need to read. I don’t have much room on my shelves. So trying to slow down on my book intake.
What are books you hope to find under the tree?

Yeah I haven’t gotten a chance to read The Starless Sea but majority of people who read it loved it. So if it does sound interesting I highly recommend you checking it out.
Yes I am in love with the illustrated HP covers. They really did such an great job with these.

I usually ask for the illustrated editions as presents, they are great, but I can never spend that money on myself. The Starless Sea is on top of my list as well, I hope you get all of these for Christmas!
