One of the things that I love most about blogging is helping to bring more attention to all the books that manage to fall under the radar. The amazing ones that aren’t nearly as appreciated as they deserve to be. These ten are books that I loved reading and would love to see more people love too.

These certainly do look like hidden gems. I hadn’t heard of any of them, so thank you for bringing them to my attention.
Ooooh, great list! The only one of these that I’ve heard of before is Final Girls. I love Seanan/Mira’s writing so it’s definitely on my TBR!

I’m not familiar with any of these books. This is an awesome week because we get to hear about new books!

I’m 100% unfamiliar with these titles, and it’s alarming to see that they have very few reviews. Best to check them out.

The only one on this list that I’m familiar with is Final Girls, so you really have found hidden gems, as opposed to some of the lists I’m seeing today😀

These aren’t familiar to me at all! Some of them look really interesting though. I will be checking some of them out.

I totally agree with you about blogging. Especially since I’m always late to the party when it comes to ‘popular’ books. That said, Tighter looks really good!
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

I am almost through with We Are Where the Nightmare Go and I love it! It definitely needs more attention. I’m going to have to check out some more on your list. And yes, some of my best reads I found due to the blogging community!
I had to check out What You’re Getting Wrong about Appalachia to read when my book club chose Hillbilly Elegy. I only read the section that directly relates to Vance’s book, but I wish I had a million copies to throw at people who love Elegy.

YEEESSSSSS…. me too. It’s far more deserving of attention than Elegy.

I hadn’t heard of any of the books on your list, but I’ve added What You’re Getting Wrong About Appalachia to my reading list– the description on Goodreads sounds super intriguing. Thanks for sharing!

Some of these look creepy. I need to check them out for sure. Thanks for sharing!

I haven’t participated in TTT is so long, but I may need to catch up with this one. I just added Where the Nightmares Go to my list, I love a good short story (if it’s scary all the better).

Cargill did a pretty fantastic job with that collection. Hope you enjoy it. 🙂
