Top Ten Tuesday: Books On My Winter 2023 TBR

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.

So, after spring, summer and fall, it’s time to put some books on my winter 2023 TBR. I hope to get to at least a few of them, although I’m a massive mood reader.

  • House of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J. Maas – I have to practice my patience just a little longer, because this book will be out in January. I don’t think I have to tell anybody that I’m eagerly awaiting this release and that I will probably abandon all other books I’m reading once this drops.
  • Glow by Raven Kennedy – I just couldn’t be bothered reading this in the fall, so maybe I can be in winter.
  • Flawless by Elsie Silver – This book was one I actually hoped to read in the fall, but I didn’t get to it. Well, let’s hope I’m more successful during winter.
  • Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood – I know I know, I’m drifting away from YA, but I want to give this author another chance. I really really really disliked The Love Hypothesis, i thought the student-professor relationship was quite toxic and there was to much science in it. So, let’s see if this one works better for me.
  • Sword Catcher by Cassandra Clare – I honestly don’t trust the fact literally nobody seems to be talking about this book, but I’m still curious anyway. In fact, I think it sounds pretty cool!
  • Twisted Hate by Ana Huang – I want to make progress on this series.
  • Peach Blossom Spring by Melissa Fu – I have bought this book a long while ago, but I haven’t read it yet. I hope to get more quality reading done instead of quantity, because my fall books were not that great, and this one sounds like it would meet this preference.
  • A Touch of Ruin by Scarlett St. Clair – I’ve read the first book in this series this summer and I know I have to read Hades’ first book first, but I’m reading this series in Dutch and they choose to translate this book instead. I think they first translate the books from Persephones POV, but I’m not that sure. Maybe they won’t translate Hades’ books at all. I just don’t know.
  • Hallowed Ground by Rebecca Yarros – This book is on my TBR AND in possession since 2018 and I haven’t read it yet. I’ve read the first 3 books in this series though.
  • The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath – Let’s not forget about this book, shal we?

Which books are you hoping to get to this winter?

  1. I loved Check & Mate, it was so cute and funny, hope you enjoy it too.

  2. I haven’t read Check & Mate yet but all her other books have pretty much been the same plot. Hopefully it’s more your thing. House of Flame and Shadow is on my list too this week.

  3. Fab list hope you enjoy them when you get to them!

  4. I’ve thought the same thing about Sword Catcher. Literally no one is talking about it, it seems. I still want to read it, because it sounds good!

  5. This is a great list! I hope you’re able to get to them all.

    Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

  6. I’ve been meaning to try more Ali Hazelwood too.

  8. I’m looking forward to House of Flame and Shadow as well! And I also still have to read Glow, but I’m thinking I need a re-read of the series so far first. Hope you’ll love all of these!

    I’ve only heard of a couple of these but not very familiar with them. I hope you enjoy them when you do read them.

  11. Oh you’ve just reminded me that I should’ve put Gold by Raven Kennedy on my list. Glow was a bit of a slog but the ending was crazy so I’m keen to see what happens next.

  12. Check & Mate sounds great! It’s on my TBR, as well 🙂 Happy reading!

    Here’s my Top Ten Tuesday

  13. I enjoyed Check & Mate. Hope you love it too!

  14. I enjoyed Check & Mate! Hope you love it too!

  15. Everything is getting dropped once I get my copy of House of Flame and Shadow too! That’s not even a question. Happy winter reading!

  16. Hazelwood’s books are popular this week. I’ve heard great things, but never read them. I hope you enjoy all these!

    Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

  17. I’ve had The Bell Jar on my TBR list ever since I first saw 10 Things I Hate About You 🙂

  18. […] Hello and welcome to my first review of the year! I’m glad it’s for a book I’ve really enjoyed, Flawless by Elsie Silver. Last summer, I saw the “Chestnut Springs” series popping up everywhere and I immediately was intrigued. I bought the first boook, but didn’t get to it until now. Fun fact, it was on my winter 2023 TBR. […]
