Top Ten Tuesday - Unread

Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is...

Unread!


I am guilty of buying books and never reading them. I have been making some progress with reading my shelves, but there really are a TON of unread books on my Kindle. When I was looking through the 127 pages of books in my library, I found there were a lot of freebies I downloaded, a LOT of young adult daily deals from when the kid first got her kindle, and plenty of other books I personally purchased. 

For this list, I honed in on books I want to commit to read. I will make an honest attempt to read these books by the end of this year. Many of these books are from authors I love or part of a series I adored. I think a big problem is just remembering I have them. With ARCs and my windfall of library holds, I don't often check my own library. At least I have now identified some and set a goal. 

  1. Luck, Love & Lemon Pie - November 24, 2022
  2. Restless Waters by Jessica Park - October 11, 2015

  4. Every Shade of Happy by Phyllida Shrimpton - August 18, 2022
  5. Fireworks by Sarina Bowen - January 27, 2019


  1. Homecoming King by Penny Reid - December 25, 2021
  2. The Single Dad's Handbook by Lynsey James - August 3, 2021
  3. The Secret Crush by Meghan Quinn - February 11, 2021

  1. Kindle books can be so hard, because they're not staring you in the face all the time! I often forget what I have on my Kindle. Hope you enjoy all of these! I think the only one I've read is Homecoming King.

  2. I remember when Left Drowning came out. It felt like everyone read that one. (Except me and you, apparently.) I enjoyed Fireworks... because Sarina Bowen. :) I will say that That Secret Crush wasn't my favorite of the series (I seriously wanted to smack Reid around a lot of the time) but it was still fun being back in Port Snow.

    1. You know what, I read Left Drowning. I meant to put the sequel in there - Restless Waters which I purchased in 2015 and still have not read.

    1. I read that book. I meant to put the sequel up there. I have to update this.

  5. Okay but you HAVE to do an update on how you do! I did this once and I would venture to guess that I *still* have not read a single one and I think I posted back in like 2016 heh. Sam. I think I probably have, between ebooks and physical, well over a thousand unread books. It is a true disorder at this point.

    I feel like I have heard good things about Every Shade of Happy. I hope you get through at least some of these!

  6. I read Left Drowning and loved it, but a few of my friends hated it. It was very angsty and I doubt I'd enjoy it now. Who knows. Loved Homecoming King!

    1. I liked Left Drowning too. I meant to put the sequel. Too late to change the picture. Penny Reid is always good for me. I tend to forget about the books I own. I need to try harder to read those books.

  7. I haven't read any of these, but looking forward to your reviews as you get through this pile.

  8. I'm the same, Sam. I downloaded so many freebies over the year to try a series and see if I liked it, and they are still on my kindle unread. I looked at my nonfiction NG books for this prompt and was very shame faced at what I had. I hope you do get to read all of these and that you enjoy them.

    1. You read so much. I am sure you will get all those books read. No shame
