Happy Tuesday – and happy new year! This week’s prompt is most anticipated releases for the first half of 2021. I’m excited about these books, but there’s no guarantee I’ll get around to any of them in a timely fashion (considering that some of these are the third in a series where the second book is still a TBR… #bookishproblems).
TBR lists are hit-or-miss for me: the long-form style of having a list of prompts while still having the flexibility to read by mood works well, but I don’t do well with a short-term schedule unless there’s a strict deadline. So take this week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt – books on my Winter 2020-2021 TBR – with a grain of salt.
Happy Tuesday! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is books I want to read again. There aren’t many books that I make a point to reread on the regular, but I do occasionally reread favourites or books that left a lasting impression.
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday falls on my birthday, so please enjoy this self-indulgent list of books from my TBR that focus on supernatural creatures, societies, and/or powers for this week’s Halloween Freebie prompt! Some of these are straight horror while others are romance or slice of life. There are witches, werewolves, ghosts, eldritch gods, …
My last Top Ten Tuesday post was a list of books with single-word titles – so it’s only fitting that our first post-hiatus TTT topic is super long book titles!
The saying goes that “less is more” – and after a month filled with long book titles, this week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt of books with single-word titles is a welcome change.
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a love freebie, so I dug around for quotes about love and human connection from books on my shelves with “love” in the title to narrow down potential sources.
It’s difficult to predict which books will hit all the right notes to merit a 5-star rating. For this week’s Top Ten Tuesday I picked my ten best guesses – specifically books I plan to read this year – from my TBR pile.
Last time I participated in a Top Ten Tuesday book cover freebie, I focused on favourite cover illustrations/artists, primarily of english-language editions. This time I’d like to share a few of my favourite illustrated covers from translated editions!
