Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
Today's top ten book are book that literally dropped my jaw because of a surprise ending or cliffhanger.
The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkins: I finished this one this weekend after reading so many fantastic reviews about its awesomeness and all I can say is OMG the book was amazing and my mouth is still open after reading the last sentence.
Glow by Amy Kathleen Ryan: Another recent read that ended with me wondering what was going to happen next.
Crave by Melinda Metz and Laura J Burns: Great vampire story and romance that ended badly for the the couple. I have been waiting a long time to close my mouth on this one thankfully Sacrifice just came out and I will get a chance to see what becomes of this great couple.
The Gathering by Kelly Armstrong: Can't even imagine where this one will go next, but the end was suspenseful and has me all fired up for The Calling.
The Magnolia League by Katie Crouch: Hoodoo and southern belles, can't wait to see if revenge is going to be sweet.
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince by J. K. Rowlings: As a big fan of Stephen King back in my twenties, I was use to having characters killed off but this one was a really shocker. I not only had my mouth open but was screaming noooooooo!
Tiger's Curse by Collen Houck: Such a great love story with a terrible curse and when I finished I was so thankful that Tiger's Quest had just been released I ran out to the bookstore so I could continue reading.
The Giver by Lois Lowry: When The Giver first came out the ending was such a twist from any other book I had ever read that it definitely caused me to wonder about how Lowry could end it so unusually with the reader reading into it what they wanted. For me I wanted a happy ending!
The Fever Series by Karen Moning: While I don't remember if these books ended with huge cliffhangers, I do remember I had to read the next book right now, and when I finished the series, I wanted more. What I do remember is that throughout the books I was catching flies a lot.
The Hunger Games Series by Suzanne Collins: What can I say except again the first two books had me slack jawed and the last one had me shaking my head and sad that the series was over.
I am sure that there are a lot more I could come up with that have had me shocked and amazed at the end of the book, but this list was harder than most. I am anxious to see which books left you shocked and amazed too.
