Welcome to another TTT! This week’s topic was submitted by Rissa, and is Top Ten Mainstream Popular Authors that I Still Have Not Read. Most of the ones in my list I have no interest in reading, but there’s a few whose books are on my TBR!

1. Robyn Carr (I want to read her Virgin River series!)
2. Brandon Sanderson
3. Jane Austen ( I will continue to try P&P until it sticks because I love the movies.)
4. Colleen Hoover (absolutely no interest)
5. Stephen King (NOPE)
6. Beverly Jenkins (I have a couple of hers on my shelf that I want to read!)
7. Jojo Moyes
8. Diana Gabaldon (Not interested.)
9. Sherrilyn Kenyon
10. Jody Picoult

What popular authors have you never read? Do we have any in common? Which books by these authors on my list should I try first?

Welcome to another TTT! Do yourself a favor and do not get sick this season. lol. Wear a mask, stay away from people, etc. I am still recovering from getting sick 2.5 weeks ago, and I’ve never felt older or more feeble in my life. I’m supposed to be better now! I’m not supposed to be dizzy and dealing with insomnia and feeling so weak and worn out. The cough is mostly gone, and the fever, body pain, and night sweats are gone. But these last few remaining yuckies are preventing me from feeling good and having fun. So please take care of yourself!

On to today’s topic, which was submitted by Cathy @ What Cathy Read Next: Book Titles That Would Make Great Newspaper Headlines. Fun, right? Thank you for submitting this topic, Cathy! I had a lot of fun scanning my shelves and looking for titles that fit this topic. There’s a lot of ways to interpret this topic, depending on the kinds of books you read, so make it your own!

1. The Only One Left by Riley Sager
2. The Last Bookshop in London by Madeline Martin
3. A Hope at the End of the World by Sarah Lark
4. Silent Victim by Caroline Mitchell
5. Finding Lady Enderly by Joanna Davidson Politano
6. Miracle on 5th Avenue by Sarah Morgan
7. The Cinderella Murder by Mary Higgins Clark
8. Murder Road by Simone St. James

10. The Traitor Beside Her by Mary Anna Evans

Which books did you select for your list this week?

Welcome to another TTT! I wanted to thank everyone for your well wishes last week. I am still pretty sick, but making a little headway and hoping to be back on my feet soon. I didn’t want to miss this Halloween freebie week, though, so I’m doing a simple topic that doesn’t take a lot of thought. All I’m doing is scrolling through my Goodreads and picking out the books that have black and/or orange book covers and throwing them into this post. Super easy, super mindless.

In the Weeds by B.K. Borison
The Huntress by Kate Quinn
The Honeymoon Crashers by Christina Lauren
Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant
The Martian by Andy Weir

Moonlight Seduction by Jennifer L. Armentrout
The Governess Game by Tessa Dare
Stolen by Lucy Christopher
Truth or Tequila by Donna Schwartze
Murder Road by Simone St. James

I hope you have a happy and safe Halloween!

Welcome to another TTT! I’m am currently sick with covid, so I will not be writing up a list for today’s prompt: Atmospheric Books. The Novelry explains this concept as: “A novel feels atmospheric when the setting and the narrative are deeply involved with one another; when characters and plot are physically embedded in their surroundings, and a near-tangible mood lifts from the pages and wraps itself around the reader.” Study.com explains that, “The atmosphere is how a writer constructs their piece to convey feelings, emotions, and mood to the reader. The atmosphere in literature might be tense, fast-paced, mysterious, spooky, whimsical, or joyful and can be found in poetry, stories, novels, and series.”

I’m excited to read through your lists!

Welcome to another TTT! This week’s topic is all about weather! What books have you read/do you want to read that have weather-related words in the title or on the cover image? Words/images like storm, rain, blizzard, flood, lightning, hail, snow, wind, etc. all count for this! If you’re feeling stumped, search your TBR by some of the keywords from the full weather glossary by the National Weather Service! I didn’t let myself duplicate words, but you’re more than welcome to!

A Garden in the Rain by Lynn Kurland
Sleigh Bells in the Snow by Sarah Morgan
The Blizzard Bride by Susanne Dietze
A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas
When Lightning Strikes by Brenda Novak
What the Wind Knows by Amy Harmon
Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas
The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon
Any Duke in a Storm by Amalie Howard
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

Can you believe I’ve got 87 books on my Goodreads with the word “snow” in the title? lol
