Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well.
Today's
Top Ten Tuesday is Bookish
Superpowers I Wish I Had (e.g. never accidentally
buying the same book twice, every book I buy would be automatically
signed/personally dedicated by the author, the ability to read faster, etc.)
(Submitted by Cathy @WhatCathyReadNext). I think we might have done this topic before, but I am not feeling it. Instead, I will share ten books I have put on hold at the library and am waiting for. Top Ten
Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today. Ten books I have put on hold at the library that I am waiting to come in (I have a few more than this but will be good and only list 10, LOL):
1. A Sweethaven Homecoming by Courtney Walsh-Why? Because I just finished the first book, A Sweethaven Summer and enjoyed it, so I want to carry on the series.
2. JFK to Dublin by Brooke St. James. Why? I have owned this on my Kindle for three years and I want to clear it off and see if I will like it and this author. I am more likely to read it in a paperback format.
3. The Riverband Romance by Valerie Comer. This is a novella collection, but I have had the first book on Kindle for three years as well. If I like the first book I can go ahead and read the others, or send it back to the library.
4. Skating for Grace by Anne Perreault. Yet another book I have owned on Kindle for 3 years, plus it's an author I have seen a lot about, but never read.
5. Happily Ever After & Everything In Between by Debbie Tung. I did not know this book existed until this past weekend (Thanks Haze)!! I LOVED Book Love and can't wait to dive into this one and Everything is Ok (which is also on hold at the library, LOL!)
6. Games in a Ballroom by Jentry Flint. I have NO idea if I will enjoy this one or not. The cover caught my attention and I immediately put it on my TBR, where it has sat for 2 years. It's time to check it out!7. Deception by Patricia Bradley. I have the third book of the series, Crosshairs on my physical shelf, so I want to check this one out, the 4th in the series, so I can read them both together and finish the series. Plus, I recently just read 2 of Patricia Bradley's books and I was reminded of how much I love her writing.
8 & 9. The Vanishing at Castle Moreau and Night Falls on Predicament Avenue by Jaime Jo Wright. These are her most recent releases and the last 2 books of hers I need to read to be all caught up on her backlist (before her next book releases, LOL).10. For Keeps by Chautona Havig. I read the first book in the series and it's another one I own on Kindle for 3 1/2 years, so trying to get my Kindle own number lower than 683 😂!

What did you do for today's topic? Have you read any of these? Which ones should I read sooner rather than later? I would love for you to share in the comments. To

ReplyDeleteHere is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
Lydia
Thanks Lydia!
DeleteOoh, this is a great topic! I hope you enjoy the books when you get them. And I hope you don't get overwhelmed with all the holds arriving at once! (That happens to me more than I like to think about.)
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT for the week: https://bookwyrmknits.com/2024/02/20/top-ten-tuesday-bookish-superpowers-i-wish-i-had/
Nicole, yes, it happens to me as well, LOL! I did pick up three of these today...to add to the 4ish other books I already had out from the library, LOL!
DeleteI hope the library gods hurry up with your holds!
ReplyDeleteThanks Deanna, I did pick up three of them just a little while ago :)
DeleteI'm quite embarrassed to look up how long some of the books I own have been on my shelf. It's a challenge I'm not always up for (aka clearing the books off that TBR list ;D). I should read this series from Courtney since it'd be fun to read some of her early stuff. :) Thanks so much for visiting my website today.
ReplyDeleteRissi, I have no idea how long some of the books on my PHYSICAL shelf has been there, but the length of time is when I added them to Goodreads, not necessarily how long they have been on there, sigh. Long enough though. I am really trying to get my numbers down for the books I own.
DeleteI'm so glad you put the Debbie Tung book on your list! I'm sure you'll love it! I loved Book Love too because it's so bookworm specific, but Happily Ever After was really good too. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did!
ReplyDeleteHaze, I have already gotten it from the library and read it :)
DeleteI hope you enjoy all of these when you can read them! I've spent more time using my library for audiobooks than anything else. It seems when I borrow a physical book, I never find the time to squeeze it in before I have to return it. But audiobooks I can easily do, as I listen to them in the morning when I'm getting ready for work and everyone else is in bed.

Pam, I understand that completely. I have cut WAY back on the amount of books I have out at one time.
DeleteLooks like you have some very good reading ahead of you. I don't know what Games in a Ballroom is about, but it's a great cover. I hope it's as good as it looks. :D
ReplyDeleteLark, me too!!!
DeleteI've been reading Debbie Tung's books recently -- they're fun quick reads! Hope you enjoy all these when you get your hands on them. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicky!
DeleteAfter reading My Phony Valentine, I literally put every book written by Courtney Walsh on my TBR list. I just love her writing style. I will have to check out her sweet romances, as well as her romcoms. She will be releasing My Lucky Charm earlier than planned and I'm so excited!! I pre-ordered that one. :)
ReplyDeleteMeezan, I love her books as well! I also ordered My Lucky Charm and it *should* be here on Friday :)
DeleteI'm just now reading The Vanishing at Castle Moreau and I'm hooked. Such an engrossing tale! 😀
ReplyDeleteNicole, I am 4th in line for it, so hopefully I will get some of these other ones read before it comes in ;)
DeleteI hope you love them all! If your library is like mine, then all of your holds will come in at the same time.
ReplyDeleteAj, happens almost every time, LOL!
DeleteI love how you shared the books you are waiting for from the library. I have quite a few books on hold from the library. I hope you enjoy all of these when they do come in.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah!
DeleteI would definitely enjoy Happily Ever After.
ReplyDeleteDeb-yes, you would!
