Every week there's a new prompt, and once in a while, Stacie and Amanda participate and give their own input on the subject at question. Todays topic is 'books on our spring tbr' and while the girls don't usually created tbr's, and even more rarely stick to them, they have some special reads that they're making time for this season, but what are they, and will they read them?

Who Wore It Better - Specials

Who Wore It Better is a meme created and hosted by Nitzan at The Book Babes Read and co-hosted here on Beautiful Bookish Butterflies by Amanda and Stacie. We don't talk about clothing or fashion and we definitely don't talk frills and spills, we talk books and their covers and who we think has the best. This week, Amanda is talking about the covers from Specials, book #3 of the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. She has big plans to read this series from start to finish in a few months time, so it'll be interesting to see what she thinks of the story inside in comparison to these covers.

Five Friday Favourites - Loved Series I'm Not Sure I Want To Read

Five Friday Favourites is a feature here at Beautiful Bookish Butterflies that involves compiling a list of five answers relating to specific topic or prompt given by either Amanda or Stacie via Twitter and/or during the last featured post. Today, Amanda is hosting, and has decided to ask - What Loved Series Are You Not Sure You Want To Read? Personally, she has a lot of series she's been considering, some she's had for a while, some she's been tempted by recently, but can she make that jump with your help?

Top Ten Tuesday - Books We'd Like To Finally Read

Top Ten Tuesday is a feature hosted at the Broke and the Bookish, and involves lists - perfect for people who enjoy making, planning and reading bookish lists. Every week there's a new prompt, and once in a while, Stacie and Amanda particpate and give their own input on the subject at question. Todays topic is the first free topic of the year, meaning Stacie and Amanda get to choose their own, and they've chosen 'Books We'd Like To Finally Read'. They both slacked a little - well - a lot on the books they acquired last year and didn't read, so hopefully this will give them a good old kick in order to rectify that. Lets takes a look at the books we didn't get around to reading..
