Top Ten Tuesday – Books on My Spring 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 a Books on My Spring 2021 TBR. As you’ll no doubt notice, my TBR is again heavy on the rom coms and women’s fiction since that seems to be where my inner mood reader still wants to be. I do have a sci fi, a couple of fantasies and some historical fiction mixed in there though there’s a little variety going on. I’m excited that so many of my favorite authors have new books coming out this Spring, and I’m also excited that I’ll be reading Karen White for the first time. She has been on my list of authors to try for a couple of years now and it’s finally going to happen.
I also went beyond a Top 10 list because I also wanted to share some older titles I’ll be working my way through. So far this year I’ve read 20 older books I already own so I’m very motivated to keep working on that goal. 🙂

So many of these are on my TBR shelf, too. But Winter Garden, on audio, was just outstanding.
I just finished listening to it last night and thought it was such a beautiful story!
I can’t wait to read the new TJR and Christina Lauren books! Your backlist books look really great, too!
The TJR is the one I’m most looking forward to from this list. I’ve been hearing good things about it.
Great list! The House in the Cerulean Sea is SO GOOD – I hope you enjoy it – and I’m really looking forward to People We Meet on Vacation and Malibu Rising, too.
I’m really excited for The House in the Cerulean Sea. I have yet to see a single negative review for it.
Great list. Some covers look familiar to me, others are completely new. Looking forward to your review about Children Of Virtue and Vengeance. Happy reading!
Thank you!
I’ve got a copy of Children of Virtue and Vengeance waiting for me to read it too. Maybe in the next few months will be the time… or maybe not 😉
I’m really hoping to get to that one. Feels like I’ve had it sitting on my shelf forever, lol.
I’m excited for Andy Weir’s book too, and I’m definitely going to buy a copy of Malibu Rising, since its not a genre I typically review on my blog, but I’m dying to read it anyway!
I’m really looking forward to Andy Weir’s books. His stories are always so entertaining.
How can I pass up Project Hail Mary?
Right? His stories are always a wild ride. 🙂
You have such colourful TBR coming up! I’m so envious of your list of ARCs! All those rom-com and women’s fic look so good! Happy reading!
Thanks and Happy Reading to you too!
So excited for some of these new releases! The Soulmate Equation and Project Hail Mary especially. The House in the Cerulean Sea is such a sweet book! Hope you enjoy.
I keep hearing great things about The House in the Cerulean Sea so I’m very excited to finally read it. 🙂
I know a lot of people who adore The House on the Cerulean Sea, hope you enjoy all your spring reads.
Thank you! 🙂
YES, The House in the Cerulean Sea! It’s a book I’ll never stop screaming about 😍 I hope you manage to get to it and enjoy it! Yay for all the romcoms. So many of these are on my TBR too and I can’t wait to read them especially CLo and TJR! Happy reading 😊
Thanks! Happy reading to you too! 🙂
Project Hail Mary was on my list, too!
My post: https://lydiaschoch.com/top-ten-tuesday-books-on-my-spring-2021-tbr/
Hopefully it will be a great read for both of us. 🙂
The House on the Cerulean Sea is excellent. Malibu Rising is on my list as well.
I really hope I love The House in the Cerulean Sea as much as everyone else seems to. 🙂
I AM LOVING THIS READING LIST! Seriously, so many good books. I loved: THE INTIMACY EXPERIMENT by Rosie Danan, THE HOUSE IN THE CERULEAN SEA by T.J. Klune, WHEN WE LEFT CUBA by Chanel Cleeton, and WINTER GARDEN by Kristin Hannah. I also can’t wait to read MALIBU RISING by Taylor Jenkins Reid and HEART & SEOUL by Jen Frederick. I’m actually starting an ARC of
THE LAST NIGHT IN LONDON by Karen White today.
Yay, glad to hear you enjoyed so many of these. Sounds like I have a bunch of great reads ahead of me this spring. 🙂
Three of these are on my list today, too. And I love seeing The Winter Garden on your list. It remains one of my favorites by Kristin Hannah. It’s a tough read, but so, so good.
I just finished The Winter Garden last night. I cried, lol.
Children of Virtue and Vengeance was okay, but definitely suffering from middle book syndrome.
That’s one of the main reasons I’ve been putting off reading it. I haven’t seen any really great reviews for it.
Yay for House in the Cerulean Sea! 🙂 I’m also so looking forward to The Soulmate Equation, People We Meet On Vacation and Malibu Rising. And I just read The Roommate this month so now I’m also anticipating The Intimacy Experiment. Hope you’ll enjoy all of these!
Hopefully these will be great reads for us both. I’m really looking forward to The Intimacy Experiment and seeing where that story goes next.
You have a few authors that I’d like to read such as Taylor Jenkins Reid and Emily Henry (I still have her Beach Read to get to!)
-Lauren
Oh, I loved Beach Read so much. One of my favorites from last year.
I read Children of Virtue and Vengeance which is intense. I’m also planning to read Soulmate Equation, The Intimacy Experiment, but I’m not sure about any of the others. I hope you enjoy them.
Thank you! 🙂
The Emily Henry one is definitely on my list, as is Andy Weir’s newest. And about 100 other books I want to read, but never seem to have the time for. Fun list!
LOL! I know what you mean. I don’t think I’ll ever put a significant dent in my overall TBR. 🙂
I think I’m going to add Malibu Rising to my TBR.
If you do, I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
The infinity Courts and Hail Mary are on my list this week too! Happy reading!
Lauren @ Always Me
Happy reading to you too!
I know I will be reading Henry, Fredrick, and CLo’s new books too. I am really excited for Frederick’s book, since I have been waiting forEVER for it. Hope they are all hits.
This will actually be my first time reading something from Frederick so I’m really excited. 🙂
Malibu Rising and The Initmacy Experiment are on my list as well.
Hopefully they’ll be great reads for us both. 🙂
Great list! I’ve read lots of White’s books and I usually enjoy them a lot. I hope that’s true for you, too. I read WINTER GARDEN last year. It’s not my favorite of Hannah’s, but it kept me reading. I hope you enjoy all these!
Happy TTT (on a Thursday)!

I’m glad to hear that about White’s books. I don’t even know how I’ve managed to go this long without trying one since I’ve always heard such good things.
Fantastic list!
Thanks! 🙂
I asked for but didn’t get approval for Malibu Rising… but I did get the Karen White…
I’ve been hearing good things about the Karen White so hopefully it will be a great read for both of us. 🙂
I hope you love them all! The TJ Klune book is on my must-read list.
I’m really excited for the TJ Klune book. I have yet to see a bad review for it.
