Top Ten Tuesday

Books I Hope Santa Brings This Year

Books I Hope Santa Brings This Year

Dec 20, 2022

This week I’m sharing the books that I hope to get for Christmas. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

It’s been a crazy few weeks. I’m into my 6th year of retail Christmas and it’s exhausting. But I love nothing more than working in a bookstore so it’s also a lot of fun. So for today’s Top Ten Tuesday, I’m sharing the books that I would love to get for Christmas. These are the books on the top of my tbr. 

It’s been a pretty up-and-down year for me. But buying and receiving books has been one of the highlights. And creating TBRs and wishlists has been a way for me to work out what I want, especially in physical form. Here is my current full wishlist. I mean I could add hundreds of more books but these are the ones I would love. 

So let’s get into it. Some of these books I’ve already read but want physical copies and some I just can’t wait to read. As always these are in no order. 

Midnight Kisses by Jeanine Bennedict | Anastasia by Sophie Lark  | The Fallen Men Series by Giana Darling (New Covers). | Lovelight Farms (Lovelight #1) by B.K. Borison.

Find Me (WITSEC #1) by Ashley N. Rostek | Queenie & the Krakens by Aleera Anaya Ceres. | The Bonds That Tie Series by J. Bree. | Lilacs and Leather (Pack Saint Clair #1) by Thora Woods.

Lola & the Millionaires: Part Two (Sweet Omegaverse #3) by Kathryn Moon | Mile High (Windy City #1) by Liz Tomforde.

And there we go. Those are just some of the books that I would love to get for Christmas. I mean I could add so many more books to this list. But I have to stick to 10. What books would you like to get this holiday season? Have you read any of these? And what did you think of them? So, Let’s Chat!

This week I’m sharing the books on my summer tbr. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl.

There is a mix of books here. From new releases to ones that have been on my tbr a while. I also want to read some more books from authors that I will be seeing at events in the next few months. 

I am really excited to get stuck into all of these, so let’s go. As always these are in no real order.

Dec 6, 2022

This week I’m sharing the books I’ve loved that are under 200 pages. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl.

While I don’t read books under 200 pages all the time, I have read quite a few and wanted to share my favourites with you. Some of these books are novellas, some are just short quick stories. Some of these are standalones, and some of these are part of a series of novellas.

So, let’s get stuck right into it. These are some of the books I’ve loved under 200 pages. And as always these are in no order. 

Muscles & Monsters (Leviathan Fitness #1) by Ashley Bennett – 182 pages | The Never King (Vicious Lost Boys #1) by Nikki St. Crowe – 192 pages. | That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon (Mead Mishaps #1) by Kimberly Lemming. – 182 pages. | The Dragon’s Bride (A Deal With a Demon #1) by Katee Robert – 180 pages.

And there we go. Those are the books that I’ve enjoyed under 200 pages. Have you read any of these? What did you think of them? What are the books that you have loved under 200 pages? Nevertheless, let’s chat!

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
