Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each Tuesday, a topic is suggested. This week’s topic is Top Ten Books that are the most recent additions to your TBR list.
I have decided to try to read books that arrive on my TBR list more quickly. I bought Thirteen, Doppelganger and A Heart Full of Headstones with my birthday money and was given Faith, Hope and Carnage by my brother in law. So far I have read two of them and am reading a third. I will try to read Thirteen after that. Next on the list is Postcards from Scotland which I received for Christmas. I’ve put them into a pile on my bedside drawers rather than onto the shelves which has helped me to focus on them. It’s harder to keep track of books on my kindle but I’m hoping I can keep on top of them as well.
