Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Things that make me instantly want to read a book.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Covers with Animals on Them. I’ve read all of these with the exception of A Charm of Finches. It’s still on my TBR list.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Indie Books (submitted by Nicole @ BookWyrm Knits). An indie book is one that is either independently published (also known as self-published) by the author or published through a small publishing company. With the invention of Kindles, indie books rose in popularity. I would say that at this point at least half of the books I read are indie books. Here are just a few that I recommend reading.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Bookish People I’d Like to Meet. I’ve been very fortunate to attend quite a few book signings, so I’ve met the majority of my unicorn authors. There are still a few bucket list authors that I’d love to meet, though.

Happy Valentine’s Day, and welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week is a Valentine’s Day freebie, so I’ve chosen to highlight Books with “Love” in the Title.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week is a freebie, and my chosen topic is Favorite Audiobook Narrators. When I first started listening to audiobooks I didn’t care for them. Either the narrator’s voice was annoying or just didn’t fit the character, or the acting was flat. I soon discovered that not all narrators are created equal and that vocal performance is a real gift. I have many go-to narrators now. Here are just ten of my favorites.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2022. I still have my trusty one-click authors, but I really tried to give debut authors and new-to-me authors a try last year. I read far more than 10 new authors, but these are the ones that stick out in my mind.     Lucy Score – Things We Never Got Over, Rock Bottom Girl, and Maggie Moves On Freida McFadden – The Housemaid Annabel Monaghan – Nora Goes Off Script Bonnie Garmus – Lessons in Chemistry Katherine Center – The Bodyguard Julie Clark – The Lies I Tell Carly Fortune – Every Summer After Lauren Forsythe – The Fixer Upper Catherine Bybee – When It Falls Apart and Be Your Everything Farrah Rochon – The Dating Playbook and The Hookup Plan        

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Most Anticipated Books Releasing in the First Half of 2023. There are so many books I am excited to read that are releasing between now and June. I had a hard time narrowing my list down to just ten!

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Most Recent Additions to My Book Collection. Between Christmas presents, gift cards, and store credits, I was able to add quite a few books to my shelf. The additions I’m most excited about are the Addicted and Calloway Sisters paperbacks by Krista and Becca Ritchie. They are no longer printing the books with these gorgeous indie covers, so there is a limited availability. The series has been bought by a major publishing company, and slightly smaller books with new covers will be released next year. Here are my most recent ebook, paperback, and audiobook additions!

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is a freebie, so I decided to do Authors I’m Thankful For. This was an easy list to compile. I have so many authors I love, but I’m particularly thankful for these authors because they so rarely disappoint me. Whether their stories are funny, emotional, or suspenseful, I know I can count on them for an entertaining reading.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is Series I’d Like to Start/Catch Up On/Finish. Oh boy. This one definitely falls under the so many books, so little time category. There are some series that involve a big time commitment because of the number of books or the length of books. Also, sometimes I read books out of order, and even though I intend to go back and read the books I’ve skipped, I get distracted. Then there are those series that everyone raves about that have been on the back burner in my mind.

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week is a Halloween freebie. Romance is my favorite genre, but I also enjoy mysteries, romantic suspense, and thrillers. I like the adrenaline rush of a good suspense or thriller that keeps me up all night because I can’t put it down. Halloween seems like the perfect time to look through my library and pick out some Suspenseful Books That Thrilled Me.
