Top Ten Tuesday...

 
Top Ten Tuesday is a fun weekly meme hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week's theme:  BOOKS ON MY SPRING 2025 TO READ LIST. 

Though my spring To Read list is certainly not set in stone; it's more a list of possible reads, and might change at any moment as my mood changes. But here are twelve books I'm thinking about reading this month and next. 


World's Greatest Sleuth! by Steve Hockensmith

The Family Experiment by John Marrs

Cloaked in Beauty by Karen Witemeyer

A Lady's Guide to Scandal by Sophie Irwin

A Whisper of Death by Darcy Burke

Deep Freeze by Michael G. Grumley

Starter Villain by John Scalzi

In the Hour of Crows by Dana Elmendorf

Lying Beside You by Michael Robotham

The Ornithologist's Field Guide to Love by India Holton

Nemesis by Gregg Hurwitz

Cold As Hell by Kelley Armstrong


Happy Reading!

  2. Prepare to be 'cold' (yes, actually) with Cold As Hell. Ha! It's a good one though. You've got a couple of others that I'm interested in on your list. Have fun with it!

  8. Oh Kelley Armstrong I have so many of her books piling up. I still need to finish Rockton and start the spinoff!

    1. The spinoff is just as good if not better. I'm just excited to be able to keep reading about Eric and Casey. I love these characters. :D

    1. The Holton book does sound like a lot of fun. :D

  10. My lists are subject to change at any point, too. I never manage to read everything on the list!

    Starter Villain sounds like so much fun; it's on my TBR list, but not in the top 10. Read the Holton book when you want something absolutely light, fluffy, and wildly wacky.

    1. The Holton book sounds like a lot of fun! And I really do want to read Starter Villain sooner rather than later. Wish me luck. :D

  11. Nice list!!! I was going to do this TTT post, but considering my reading tastes completely changes for my winter 'tbr' list, I decided to just play it by ear what I am going to read during the spring. Good luck with your reading goals.

    1. I've been playing it by ear more with my reading this year, too. I don't really want to be tied to lists, but I do have books on my radar to read next month, so we'll see what happens. :D

  12. I would like to read the John Marrs book! Enjoy, I hope you get to read a bunch of these.

    1. I'm in the middle of Nemesis right now, and while I love Evan Smoak, his fight with Tommy is making me a little sad.

  21. Karen Witemeyer is very popular with my library patrons. I’m curious about her fairytale series. (I’m not sure if that’s what it’s called). Isn’t Cloaked in Beauty part of that series?

    1. It is part of that series. I read the first one, Fairest of Heart, and really enjoyed it.

    1. I did read another book called Cold as Hell but it was by a different author; this Kelley Armstrong Cold as Hell is the newest bok in her Haven's Rock series.

  28. Interesting list, Lark. I don't know any of those authors, so I'm looking forward to your reviews.
    Thanks for visiting my Top 5 this week. I left a message on your original clock post but it doesn't show up, I suppose you have to allow it first. If you can't find it, let me know.
