This week's Top Ten Tuesday topic from The Broke and the Bookish is Winter TBR. This topic is repeated seasonally and is one of my favorites. There's almost no chance I'll actually get to all ten of these before spring but I like sorting through all the books I want to read and picking ten!
1. At the Back of the North Wind by George MacDonald - This was my Grandmother's favorite book as a child and she's been telling me that I should read it for decades but I'm a bit contrary and never have. I think this is the time to finally read it.
2. Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn - I've seen several reviews for this one lately and it really has me wanting to reread it!
3. Written in Red by Anne Bishop - I'm trying to read some of the books that I hear lots of raves about but are a little out of my comfort zone and this one sounds really good.
4. Lost on Planet China by J. Maarten Troost - I've really enjoyed his previous two travel memoirs so I have high hopes for this one. Plus, it's been awhile since I've read a travel memoir.
5. Flat Broke with Two Goats - by Jennifer McGaha - I love this title so much! This is a memoir about the author losing her job and ending up in a farmhouse in the Appalachians with two goats. It sounds pretty interesting.
6. Promise Not to Tell by Jayne Ann Krentz - I love her romantic suspense books and I'm really looking to starting this new one!
7. The English Wife by Lauren Willig - I loved her standalone book from a few years ago entitled The Other Daughter so I'm super excited to read this one.
8. Death and the Viking's Daughter by Loretta Ross - This cozy mystery series about auctioneer Wren and former Marine turned PI Death is quickly becoming one of my favorites so I always look forward to the next in the series.
9. Ginger Snapped by Gail Oust - I love a good Christmas cozy mystery - especially a series involving lots of Christmas cookies!
10. Finding Hope by Stacy Finz - I'm hoping to start making some progress on getting caught up on my overdue ARCs. I was really excited about this one when it came out in January of 2015 so I think it's probably time I read it!
What's on your TBR this Winter?
Ginger Snapped sounds fun- I need to find some good Christmas mysteries. And that title Flat Broke with Two Goats is pretty awesome! Lost on Planet china sounds intriguing...
ReplyDeleteI finally read Written in Red this fall and yeah, definitely a good one to have on your list! I don't know the other books, but they are catching my eye...
ReplyDeleteWritten in Red is consistently on my TBR. Hope you enjoy all of these!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these...yet, but it sounds like Written in Red is a crowd favorite and now I need to read it lol
ReplyDeleteI read At the Back of the North Wind in college for a class and it made me sob. I loved it entirely and kept it, but I never want to read it again.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to enjoy Written in Red, and I too wouldn't mind reading the JAK and Willig books although might be down the track!
ReplyDeleteI love that you know what your grandmothers favourite book as a child was, and that you are going to read it.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! A few of those are on my Kindle, too.
ReplyDeleteI have quite a few 2015 arcs to get to myself. I really liked Written in Red. I hope you enjoy reading all of these.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your list. Romancing Mr Bridgestone is calling my name. Need to check out the rest, too. 😁❤️
ReplyDeleteRomancing Mr. Bridgerton is very enjoyable if you like a good historical Romance! I also enjoyed Written in Red - it's an little different from most urban fantasy I've read. Anne Bishop is a great author :)
ReplyDeleteFlat Broke with Two Goats sounds like it will be a trip! I also saw Death and the Viking's Daughter on someone else's list and I definitely want to know more about this book. Good luck in reading what you can! I am trying to read 10 more NetGalley books before the year is out.
ReplyDeleteI haven't even heard of any of these. FLAT BROKE WITH TWO GOATS sounds great. I might have to check that one out!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do get to Written in Red--and that you like it. I know it's a bit outside your comfort zone. The English Wife is one I am looking forward to as well. And Promise Not to Tell. :-) I hope you get a chance to read all of these this winter, Katherine!
ReplyDeleteRomancing Mister Bridgerton is AMAZING! I can't remember, have you read other books in this series?
ReplyDeletedid i 'hear' you say overdue arcs?? Don't remind me LOL :) My TTT
ReplyDeleteFlat Broke with Two Goats sounds so interesting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these great-sounding books with us.
I'm excited for the Krentz, too! She's always a good time.
