Top Ten Tuesday – Books On My Winter 2020-2021 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 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Top Ten Tuesday has been one of my favorite memes ever since I started blogging, so huge thanks to Jana for taking over the hosting duties!
This week’s TTT topic is Books On My Winter 2020-2021 TBR. My primary reading goal for 2021 is the same as it was for this year — to strike a better balance between reading shiny, new ARCs and older books that I already own. I did pretty good with that in 2020 but am hoping for even better results in 2021. To get started off on a good note, my tentative winter TBR is a 60/40 split between ARCs and older books. The older books mostly coincide with my other major reading goal for the upcoming year — to continue making progress on YA fantasy series that I’ve either started late or fallen behind on. I’m close to the end on Arc of a Scythe, Throne of Glass, and An Ember in the Ashes so the next books in each of those series is on my list. Then I haven’t had a chance to read Addie Larue yet even though it was my most anticipated read of 2020. I think that one is going to be my first read of the new year. The other six books on my list are ARCs I have that will publish in either the winter or early spring so I want to get a jump on those as well.

I love how different all these books and their covers are but I have to say the cuteness of the contemporaries are calling to me!
Those cute contemporaries have really been my jam for most of 2020, lol.
Great list! I’ve seen so many rave reviews for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue that I think I need to check it out. Happy reading!
Thanks, happy reading to you too!
Nice lineup! I found some new potentials here.
Thanks!
I’ve heard so many good things about The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. Enjoy.
My post.
Thank you!
Great list! Addie LaRue made my list, too, and I’m hoping to get The Toll for Christmas!
I hope you get it!
I’ve heard such good things about Scythe and I still haven’t started it yet. Bad me
It’s really good!
You Have a Match sounds like a good read. I hope you enjoy them all.
Thank you!
I’m so excited about The Project. I also have Addie LaRue that I hope to make time to read soon!! I did pretty well with reading more of my own books in 2020, but like you, I want to do even BETTER in 2021.

I’m especially excited for Addie Larue. I’ve only seen good reviews for it. 🙂
This looks like a fun list! The only one on here I plan to read is The Project, and I’m really looking forward to it😁
I’m really excited for that one too. I love Courtney Summers’ writing style.
I really enjoyed Addie LaRue and Tower of Dawn when I read them, I hope you do too!
Thank you! 🙂
I tried the audio of Addie LaRue and had to quit. It just wasn’t working for me. I’ll have to try again later but with the ebook version.
I hope it works the second time around.
You Have A Match and the first TOG book are on my TBR as well!!!!
I hope you love them both! 🙂
I’m looking forward to reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. 🙂
Hopefully we’ll both love it!
I finished The Ex Talk the other day. It was so good. I hope you love it! Can’t wait to dig into Much Ado About You, You Have a Match, and A Pho Love Story
So glad to hear The Ex Talk is good. I can’t wait to read that one!
Addie Larue sounds good and I’ve been a big fan of the Courtney Summers stuff I’ve read.
I really like Courtney Summers’ writing so I’m excited for her new book.
I loved the Toll. I have the ARC for The Ex-Talk and there are others I want to read.
Glad to hear The Toll was a good read for you. I’m excited to see how the series ends.
I’m hoping to read The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue this winter too! I’ve heard amazing things.
Same here. Haven’t seen a negative review yet.
I’m so excited for A Pho Love Story. It looks so cute and sounds so good 😍 I had Addie on my possibility pile for the month as well. I really hope to read it before 2020 ends because I keep hearing non-stop great things about it. Happy reading and hope you enjoy all of these!
Thank you!
I’m excited for THE NATURE OF FRAGILE THINGS and YOU HAVE A MATCH as well. Good luck on your 2021 goals!
Happy TTT (on a Saturday)

Thank you!
I also still need to read Addie and will also probably start 2021 with it 🙂 Just did a complete (re)read/binge of the Ember in the Ashes series and it was amazing. Also so excited about You Have A Match and A Pho Love Story!
I think Addie is going to be my first read of 2021. It calls to me every time I walk over to my book shelf, lol.
I honestly didn’t want to read Tower of dawn but once I began I was hooked! So I hope you’ll love it too!
I finished it last night. It wasn’t my favorite in the series but it was a good setup for Kingdom of Ash which I started last night and am already over halfway through, lol.
