Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week. This week’s topic is about our spring 2024 reading plans. There are so many amazing books to choose from — it’s hard to narrow it down to just ten. But I’ll give it a try.
Here are 10 books I’m especially looking forward to this spring:
The Good, the Bad, and the Aunties by Jesse Q. Sutanto
The House That Horror Built by Christina Henry
The Guncle Abroad by Steven Rowley
Disturbing the Dead by Kelley Armstrong
Winter Lost by Patricia Briggs
Summer Romance by Annabel Monaghan
Just For the Summer by Abby Jimenez
Against the Darkness by Kendare Blake
The Paradise Problem by Christina Lauren
The Return of Ellie Black by Emiko Jean
Please note: This is my last post for about a week or so, as I’ll be offline with family. I look forward to seeing everyone else’s spring reading plans when I get back!

At the end of each year, I share a list of all my book purchases that I didn’t actually read (All the Books I Meant to Read), and I don’t really want to repeat myself, so…
I thought I’d focus on the books I listed on my 2023 quarterly TBR posts… but realized that I mainly read them all! So, I’m digging back a little further, and just listing 10 books from the past couple of years that I’ve been meaning to read… and haven’t yet.
My top 10 are:
Akata Woman by Nnedi Okorafor
How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix

Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week. This week’s topic is about our winter reading plans.
So many books to choose from! This time around, my list includes a mix of upcoming new releases and books already on my shelves. My top 10 priorities to read this winter will be:
New releases:
1) Episode Thirteen by Craig DiLouie: I’ve loved every book I’ve read by this author so far, even though they’re always super disturbing. (release date 1/24/2023)
2) The Magician’s Daughter by H. G. Parry: I don’t know much about this one, but it looks good! (2/21/2023)
3) Lost in the Moment and Found (Wayward Children, #8) by Seanan McGuire: If it’s January, it must be time for another Wayward Children book! (1/12/2023)
4) The Stolen Heir by Holly Black: I’m beyond thrilled that there’s a new book in the world of Folk of the Air on the way! (1/5/2023)
5) Backpacking Through Bedlam (Incryptids, #12) by Seanan McGuire: Another series by Seanan McGuire that I love! Of course I’ll read the new book as soon as possible. (3/7/2023)
6) A Sinister Revenge (Veronica Speedwell, #8): This series continues to be so much fun. (3/7/2023)
And books I already own:
7) Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir: Although I didn’t completely love Gideon the Ninth, I’m interested enough to want to keep going.
8) A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers: On the other hand, I did love the first book in this series, so #2 is a must!
9) The Spare Man by Mary Robinette Kowal: I bought this right when it came out, and I love everything I’ve read by this author… and I’ve ended up saving this book to read when I can savor it (which hasn’t happened yet).
10) Akata Woman by Nnedi Okorafor: I really enjoyed the audiobook of the first two in this series, so if my library has this one available via audio, I’ll probably go that route… but otherwise, the paperback will do just fine.
