Top Ten Tuesday- Underrated Books & Authors

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by the lovely people over at The Broke & The Bookish. 

This week's topic is Top 10  Underrated Books or Authors in a particular genre of your choosing.

Now I wish I could do that but the truth is I generally read well known books 

which is kind of a good/bad thing.

So I'm just going to share with you some books I think not a lot of people have heard about. Now I could be totally wrong about some of these but they are just my opinion that they aren't well known.

If you haven't heard of some of these books, I hope you check them out!

- The Waiting Sky by Lara Zelin

I'm going to be honest & say I bought this book strictly because of the cover. I mean isn't it beautiful? I will also say this book is awesome! Such a good contemporary about storm chasing and tying it into everyday lives. Def. a must read!

-Origin by Jessica Khoury

This is kind of a lesser known sci-fi novel. I highly enjoyed it & the 2nd book of the series just came out not to long ago if I'm not mistaken!

-That Time I Joined the Circus by J.J Howard

Now I'm not sure if this is lesser known but I haven't heard a ton of people talk about it. The title of the book pretty much says it all. It's a fun read for sure!

-Five Summers by Una LaMarche

I don't think I've heard anyone talk about this book! Granted it's not one of my favorites by a long shot but it's still a fun summery read all about friendship; similar to the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series.

-Bittersweet by Sarah Ockler

Now I think a ton of people have heard of Sarah Ockler but I think everyone talks most about one of her other books, Twenty Boy Summer. My favorite Sarah Ockler book is this one because of the winter aspect & well the baking aspect. 

-Unearthly by Cythnia Hand

I adore this series & wish more people knew about it! I generally can't find books about angels I like but this series is amazing!

- The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen

I LOVE this book! If you are feeling unmotivated in life PLEASE read this! It is all about a 16 year old runner who loses her leg & gets a prosthetic leg and still runs! Read it!

-Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick by Joe Schreiber

I don't think a ton of people know about this series as well! They are short, action packed fun reads!

-Pivot Point by Kaysie West 

I think a good amount of people know about this series but I wish more did! It's a really cool paranormal series.

-Shade Series by Jeri Smith Ready

This is a highly underrated series! I love it so though! It's all about ghosts and paranormal things but not to scary at all!
