Top Ten Tuesday #23
Books on my Amazon Wishlist
This week’s prompt seems very strange to me. (I didn’t realize this was a biannual TTT tradition or that it coincided with Giftmas in July when I first wrote this post.)
Sure, I have books on my Amazon wishlist and I don’t expect anyone to buy a book for me. I created my wishlist for my husband and friends so they can get me books I want for my birthday or Christmas. Otherwise, it seems a little bit forward to ask my blog readers to buy me a book for a TTT prompt. Am I being weird about this?
For the sake of participating in the prompt, here are the top ten books on my Amazon wishlist (no link to my wishlist):
What about you? Which books made your list this week? Do we have any in common?
I learned in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) that life is full of dialectics, or two opposing truths. In this case, the two opposing truths are: 1) I don’t agree with JKR’s stance regarding trans people, and 2) I still love Harry Potter.
The Midnight Library sounds really good and I hope I finally get to the Last Hour series, as I’m reading Cassandra Clare’s books in the order she recommends and I’m only at book #2 in the 2nd series, The Infernal Devices.
Here is my TTT: https://herseriallife.com/bookish-wishes-10-books-id-love-to-own/
Have great week 🌈
I hope you enjoy The Midnight Library when you get to it and I haven’t started the Last Hour trilogy either. I am done with The Mortal Instruments and Infernal Devices books, though, and I read them in Cassie’s preferred order too.
I’ve heard great things about The Midnight Library.

It was fantastic. It was the most profound reading experience I’ve ever had. I hope you like it if you decide to read it.
Anxious People was excellent, it made me cry!
It made me cry too. I loved it. It’s my second favorite read this year.
Nice wishlist !!
Here’s my TTT https://bookishnoomie.blogspot.com/2022/06/top-ten-tuesday-3.html
Thank you! 😀
I don’t have a wish list but should make one. I love HP and Cassandra Clare. I’d also love to read “The Midnight Library.”
I didn’t know you loved HP and Cassandra Clare. They’re some of my favorite series. 😀 I hope you enjoy The Midnight Library when you read it.
May some of your wishes be granted by your loved ones!

Thanks! 😀 I love when I get books for my birthday and Christmas. They’re the perfect gift.
I just put books I’d like to buy for myself one day. I didn’t add an Amazon wish list either. I think a nice hardcopy of The Midnight Library would be nice to have too.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who didn’t put a link to our wishlist. I felt so awkward doing it, lol. And, yes, I’d love a hardcover of The Midnight Library so I can read it whenever I want to.
Great list! And you’re definitely not weird about it, I think most of us feel a bit weird about this topic – I was in doubt but did post my wishlist but also without any expectations at all. The Katherine Arden series is one that’s on my TBR, I’ve heard so many great things about it!
Thanks, Lindsey! 😀 I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt a bit weird/awkward about sharing my wishlist link. I hope you enjoy The Winternight Trilogy when you get to it. I love it so much!
Oh I didn’t know this was a tradition either! I felt weird about doing a wishlist so I didn’t actually make a list on Amazon. Although it is kind of cool to share the love although some might feel obligated to reciprocate, etc, so yeah. 🙂 Anywho… that cover of Thorns is amazing!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who didn’t know it was a tradition and felt weird about sharing my wishlist link with people.
The cover for Chain of Thorns is beautiful, isn’t it? It’s one of my favorite covers. I always love the covers to Cassie’s books.
Her covers are always outstanding.
Some of these are on my TBR and some are new to me. I hope you get bought them all then I can read your reviews and find out more about them!
Thanks. I’ve actually already read all of them except Chain of Thorns and The Last Voyage of Poe Blythe. I do look forward to read those two. The other 8 books are fantastic and I recommend every single one of them. 😀
Great list! I’m also really excited for Chain of Thorns the illustrated Order of the Phoenix, even though I think the sheer size and weight of both might cause my shelves to collapse, haha.

Ha ha! So true. They’re both so thick and the illustrated Harry Potter editions are SOOOO heavy.
Great list! I love the Katherine Arden series and The Midnight Library. I hope you get some of the books on your list!
Thanks, Leah! 😀
Very interesting tradition! I don’t even know what books I want right now! AH! I’m so so so out of the bookish loop!
I understand. I was out of the loop before I started blogging again this year. Now, I feel like I have a good grasp on what’s out there. Although, I’m always still surprised on these lists how many books I’ve never heard of, lol.
I love the Winternight Trilogy and own it in hardcover. I hope you receive these for your birthday or Christmas!
Thanks, Jen! 😀 I have the Winternight Trilogy in ebook and I loved it so much that I want it on my shelves.
Nice list! I somehow missed that Ally Condie book. I loved her Matched series. Happy reading! 🙂
Thanks! 😀 The Last Voyage of Poe Blythe’s supposed to be in the same universe as Matched. I’m really excited to read it.
