Happy Thursday! You know what that means… time for a new TBR Thursday!
My feature was totally influenced by Teresa @ Readers Live a Thousand Lives and her On My Shelf posts. I love love love the idea of spotlighting a title from my shelf (or, you know, my eReader) and seeing what you think about it. Have you read it? Should I read it or put it back on the shelf? Sometimes it seems like everyone is reading the same books at the same time and older titles have a way of just fading from the radar. I love this way of featuring an older title and, of course, getting a chance to talk about it with other bloggers and readers. And I want to force myself to do it regularly, hence the TBR Thursday title.
Let’s talk about this week’s pick, shall we?

Cass Daniels isn’t waiting for her knight in shining armor. She knows that girls like her don’t get a happily ever after. Not if you live in a trailer with your mom, work at a greasy spoon diner, and get leered at by old men. Maybe that’s why she puts up with Jackson—her poor excuse for a boyfriend, who treats her like dirt. Cass has learned to accept her lot in life. That is, until he walks into her diner...
His name is Tucker White, and he’s different from any man Cass has ever known. Tall, tattooed, and bad-ass gorgeous, he’s the lead singer of the rock band Damaged. From the moment they meet, Tucker sees something in Cass he just can’t shake. Something beautiful. Something haunted. Something special. And he’s determined to find out what it is—if only he can get her to open up and let him in...
White Trash Beautiful (and the other two books in the series) were BookOutlet finds. I got a great deal on them and they sounded like they might be something I’d enjoy. I’ve seen a LOT of mixed reviews for this one, so I never picked it up. I’m not sure if I want to get invested in a three book series if it’s “meh.” But the good reviews make me want to pick it up!
So…
Have you read White Trash Beautiful?
Should I read it or put it back on the shelf?
Why?
Leave your thoughts in the comments!
I haven’t read this book, but the synopsis sounds interesting. I have a thing for badass rockers, so I might have to check this one out myself. I’d read it, even with the mixed reviews. This meme is so great! My TBR Thursday is here.
Rockers don’t always work for me, but it may be because I read too many of them back to back to back a couple years ago. It’s been awhile. I suppose I should give this one a chance! Thanks for dropping by!
I read this one! I think I gave it 5 stars too! It was a year or two ago though, so I guess I could feel differently now? But I remember really liking it back when I read it. 🙂
This gives me hope! Did you read the whole series? Maybe I’ll bump it up on the list…
I do like the sound of this one, and my book today is also one I thought sounded really good…and for some reason, it is stuck on my pile…here’s MY TBR THURSDAY POST
Maybe one of these days I’ll get to reading it!
I remember seeing this book everywhere, but never read it. I hope it’s a good one!
I’ve only found one friend who read it! Haha. Apparently a lot of people saw it, but never jumped in.
