Top Ten Tuesday- "A" books

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Movies/TV Shows That Would Have Made Amazing Books (Submitted by Sabrina @ Notes From a Paper Plane Nomad). Seriously at a loss, thought about it for 2 days, and I have nothing. We don't watch a lot of TV or movies. So, I am going to take a page out of Pam's book (Read!Create!Bake!) and do titles that start with a letter, I was going to go with C because I can see 3 books on my TBR cart at a quick glance that start with C, but better go with with A since it's my first time, LOL! 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 on my PHYSICAL shelves that I am might (should) going to read soonish that start with "A":

Top Ten Tuesday-Bookish Books

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love as Much the Second Time Around. As someone who rarely rereads, I am going to skip this topic. I thought about doing books with "March" in the title, I have exactly zero on my Goodreads account. I also thought about books with "spring" in the title, yeah, it wasn't working either. Instead, I am going to do ten books with "book" in the title.

Top Ten Tuesday-Forgotten Books

 Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is books I meant to read in 2023 and didn't get to. This is definitely one of the easier topics, but I'm not sure I want to know, LOL!

Here are my forgotten books:

December Reading Wrap Up 2023

December passed in a blur of rental cars, work, Christmas, travel, and finally some down time!! I had some reading duds, but overall I think I had a decent reading month. I read 17 books and I did have a few 5-star reads! Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Stacking the Shelves #102, Sunday Post #99, Sunday Salon #93

Hey bookish friends! Happy New Year's Eve!!! Did you have a good Christmas week? We did. Me and my kiddos traveled to TN on Wednesday and got back Saturday evening. It was a quick trip, but always wonderful to see my sister and her family. Word is my car will be finished by the end of this week!!! I will update next Saturday. Today we did Church online, played a few games, and plan to do more of the same, with lots of relaxing this afternoon. Tomorrow my son goes back to work, but hubby is off. We plan to take down the Christmas tree and put the house back in order. We never stay up until midnight to celebrate, we've gotten old, LOL, and need our sleep. How do you celebrate New Year's Eve?

Stacking the Shelves #100, Sunday Post #97, Sunday Salon #91

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? I had another busy week. I am ready for a break and hopefully, after this week, things will slow down. Still no word on when we will get the car back. I am trying to get some sewing projects completed this weekend, or at least make some progress (they need to be done before Christmas!). What are your plans for the weekend?

All's Fair in Love and Christmas

Title: All's Fair in Love and Christmas

Author: Sarah Monzon

Publisher: Bethany House

Genre: Christian Fiction, Christmas, Romcom, Contemporary Romance

Source: Bethany House

My Review:

I love the cover of All's Fair in Love and Christmas. It represents the story well. This is a stand-alone story by Sarah Monzon, but I would love to see it turn into a series with some of the side characters.

Stacking the Shelves #81, Sunday Post #78, Sunday Salon #72

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? I am doing good. Yesterday I was in the car all day, I just got home from visiting my sister in Tennessee. I loved spending time with my sister and brother, and their families. I got to spend a lot of time in the pool this past week, so I finally feel like I had summer 😃 Today, I am catching up and relaxing.

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? I am doing okay. Another busy week and I am on day 4 of another sore throat. Not sure what is going on. This morning my husband and I ran errands (including a trip to Barnes and Noble). This afternoon I worked on our business for a while, and then sewed for a while. Tomorrow I hope to rest and relax. What are your plans for the weekend?

Top Ten Tuesday-Indie Authors

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Indie/Self-Published Books (submitted by Nicole @ BookWyrm Knits). I am excited about this title because I have read quite a few Indie Authors 😂 The hard part will be remembering WHO they all are, LOL. 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. 

Top Ten Indie/Self-Published Authors:

You all know I am going to start with Emma St. Clair! I love her books. These represent two of her series. Emma writes sweet, closed-door romantic comedies. They are hilarious. Her heroines are typically sassy and there is always some kind of animal in each book (notice I didn't say pet 😂).

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? This was another long week, I am wiped out. I took a long walk this morning, but I haven't decided if I am going to do some house cleaning or catch up on reviews/blogging...

Top Ten Tuesday-Books I STILL haven't read yet

 Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books From My Past Seasonal TBR Posts I STILL Haven’t Read (Submitted by Dedra @ A Book Wanderer) This sounds like an easy topic, but we will see 😂  I have only been blogging for a little over a year so my list will start with last summer.

Top Ten Tuesday-Book Series I would love to catch up on

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is a freebie. I am too tired to come up with an original idea so I decided to look over previous topics from before I had a blog. I landed on book series I would like to catch up on. One of my reading goals for this year was to finish book series I had already started and to make that list. Since I only put two series on that list, this will help me to at least make the list 😂  I will list the series and then put the books from that series I need to read to complete it.

Books I Wish I had read this year

 MERRY CHRISTMAS

Today I am participating in the Top 10 of 2021 hosted by Kimberly Faye Reads. Today's topic is books I wish I had made time to read in 2021. While I did read a ton of books this year (246 so far) there were still quite a few that I wish I had gotten around to. All of these I either checked out of the library and didn't actually get to them or I heard so much about them that I kept saying I was going to read them!

Sunday Spotlight #4-Book Nerds and Boyfriends

Happy Sunday, friends! A few weeks ago I started doing a "Sunday Spotlight" where I highlight a book/author that deserves more love!  I take a book that I have read and enjoyed that has less than 100
reviews on Goodreads and give it some extra love by drawing it to your attention! Maybe someday I will host a link party (if I can figure it out) to make it easier to participate.
