Books on My 2020 Winter TBR

Books on My 2020 Winter TBR

June 16, 2020 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 8 Comments

This week I’m sharing books the books what I want to read this winter, with my 2020 winter tbr. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

It’s started to get much colder where I live now and it’s the perfect weather to wrap myself up in my bed and just read. So today I’m sharing books that I want to get through this winter. From books that I’ve had a while to books that I’ve just picked up. Let’s hope that I can read these books soon. 

Through the Storm (The Le Veq Family #1) by Beverly Jenkins: I just read my first Beverly Jenkins last week and loved it, and I really want to read more about the family. So I’m hoping to read at least one of the books that centre around the Le Veq family. And I’m excited about that. My library has them all on ebook, so I have them waiting for me. 

Fresh Ink: An Anthology edited by Lamar Giles: I bought this one a couple of months ago and I’m slowly making my way through another anthology, but I hope to get to this one as well before the end of winter. I have a lot of trouble finishing an anthology for some reason, but I want to read this one for sure.

Check, Please!, Book 2: Sticks & Scones by Ngozi Ukazu: I’m so excited to pick this one up. I loved the first volume and this one seems like it’s going to be fantastic. I will probably pick this one up really soon. Especially with pride month. 

The How and the Why by Cynthia Hand: I got this one just after Christmas last year and I still haven’t had the chance to pick it up. I’ve really enjoyed reading Cynthia Hand in the past and I’m really excited to read this one. I even got a hardcover of it – which I never do, but I didn’t want to wait for the paperback. 

Prince Charming (Royals #1) by Rachel Hawkins: This is one of the books that was chosen as part of the best friend picks my TBR, but I also cannot wait to read it. I’ve been slowly making my way through the list and I’m really excited about this one. It sounds exactly what I love and I cannot wait to devour it. 

Heartstopper: Volume One (Heartstopper #1) by Alice Oseman: This is another one that I got a little while ago. But I have the first two volumes and I need to get on reading it. It sounds like it’s right up my alley. So many people that I know love it, so I’m really excited about that as well. 

Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo: I have spoken about this a couple of times now and I’m so excited about this one. It’s yet to come in at work, but I as soon as it does I will be reading it. I’ve heard nothing but good things about it. And that makes me really intrigued. 

Monday’s Not Coming by Tiffany D. Jackson: I’m hoping that this one comes this week into work so I can finally read it. This one has been on my tbr for some time now and I finally ordered it in at work so I can read it. Again I’ve heard such amazing things about Tiffany D. Jackson, especially about this one. 

A Duke, the Lady, and a Baby by Vanessa Riley: I’m super excited to pick this one up. It features disability which is rare in historical fiction. It also sounds super interesting and it caught my eye as soon as I read the synopsis. I’m actually hoping to get to this one this week sometime. 

You Were Made For Me by Jenna Guillaume: I really enjoyed Jenna’s debut book last year and I’m really excited about this one. It sounds so good. And fun and full of romance and I can’t wait. The romance was one of my favourite parts of What I Like About Me, so I’m really excited to see what she does with it in this one. 

And that is it for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday! What do you hope to read this winter or summer? Do we have anything that is the same? Let’s Chat!

    Clap When You Land is the best book I have read so far this year. I am currently reading Let Me Hear a Rhyme by Tiffany D. Jackson and it is incredible- I would love to read her backlist now!

    Monday’s Not Coming has been on my shelves for a while, and while I didn’t add it to the list, I’d like to read it this season too. I really loved Alledgedly from the same author. And I’ve heard great things about Clap When You Land. Great list!

    The How and the Why is one of my all time favorites books. Such adoptee representation in it. It was my first book by her and it won’t be my last. Hurry up and read it! 😉

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
