Top Ten Tuesday: To Be Read This Winter

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

Winter TBR!
But at least there's good books in my future

Winter is quickly approaching, and though I am not looking forward to any sort of frozen precipitation, I am looking forward to a billion books being released in early 2021. Wow! I cannot believe it almost 2021. Crazy! I have already read 11 January releases, and based on those experiences, I am very optimistic for next year's crop of books. Without further ado, here are ten books from my winter TBR. It's a mix of library holds, must haves, and ARCs, which I am trying to prioritize this winter. 

What do you plan to read this winter?

  1. I am someone who is not a big fan of winter or the cold either. I recently got the audiobook of rent a boyfriend so hopefully I will be listening to that soon, and I am always happy reading a Backman novel as well. I hope you'll like those two in particular. I want to read the christmasaurus this winter!

    1. I am watching it snow right now, and I am just hoping we don't lose power. With work from home, I am not as stressed, but still I want to have power. I just finished the audiobook of Rent a Boyfriend. I enjoyed it, and I hope you do too. The Christmasaurus. I need to check that out

  2. I haven't read Love Lettering yet, but I love the cover of Clayborn's Love at First!

    1. I like Love Lettering a lot. I was happy with all four of the Clayborn books I read. I hope you get a chance to check her out

  3. I’m glad you’re enjoying January’s books! I have Anxious People on my Christmas list. We’ll see if Santa brings it.

  6. Rent a Boyfriend & Then There Was You both look so cute! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on those books. And I'm hoping to finally get to The Cruel Prince *fingers crossed*.

    1. I enjoyed Rent a Boyfriend (just finished it today - my loan came in early). I loved Shroff's last book, so I think Then There Was You will be great. Hope you read and love The Cruel Prince.

  13. Since it's hot and sunny for most of the year here in Arizona, I always look forward to the cooler months. Our morning have been chilly lately - in the 40s and 50s - and I'm FREEZING! Arizonans are wimpy when it comes to "cold" weather :)

    I'm excited about several of these titles too. GOOD GIRL, BAD BLOOD is one I'm definitely looking forward to. Also, YOU HAVE A MATCH since I enjoyed TWEET CUTE so much. I hope we both love these and that you also adore your other picks.

    Happy TTT!

    1. I am watching a snow storm right now. I think it's in the 20s outside too. Tweet Cute was one of my 2020 favorites, so I have high hopes for You Have a Match, and I cannot wait to get back in Pippa's world.

  14. You Have a Match, Amelia Unabridged, and Perfect on Paper are three that I have for review! I'm really looking forward to all of them. I didn't know Kate Clayborn had written something new! I absolutely adored Love Lettering. <3

  15. I'm really curious about Anxious People!! And it's crazy that it's almost 2021, but I will take it! This year has been kind of rough - obviously with COVID, etc. but also in personal ways.

    1. Glad you mentioned it. For some reason it had disappeared from my spreadsheet. I will be starting it this upcoming week now. I am not holding my breath for an approval for Good Girl, Bad Blood, but I think my library will get it.

  20. Love At First is on my TBR too.
    I'm super excited for 2021's reading. There are so many books I'm already desperate to get my hands on!
