Top Ten Tuesday #24
Books on My Summer 2022 TBR
This week’s prompt is hard for me because I’m a mood reader. I might plan to read specific books because either they fit a challenge, they’re for book club, or I just want to read them. The problem is if I’m not in the mood, there’s no amount of obligation that can force me to read a book. With that being said, here are ten books I’d like to read this spring, mood permitting:
The first six of these ten are books I haven’t read yet and ones I really want to read. The two Narnia books are because I’m a bit behind on the Narniathon, and the two Harry Potter books are because I started a reread of the series in 2020 and I didn’t get to the last two.
What about you? Which books are on your Summer 2022 TBR? 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.
Its always good to put rereads on your tbr. There is less guilt if you don’t read them 😀
Ha! 😀 That’s true. I didn’t even think of that.
i’m hoping to read lady midnight sometime soon too. hopefully we both enjoy it!
Cool! 😀 I hope we’ll both like it too. I’m pretty sure I will, at least, because I love Cassie’s books.
The Narnia books are ideal for summer, I think, as are the Harry Potters.
I agree. They’re short and easy to read. Plus, they’re a lot of fun. 😀
The Magician’s Nephew was excellent. May you enjoy it.

I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😀 I’ve read it before. This will be my second time. I hope I’ll enjoy it more than I did the first time.
I’ve heard good things about Where the Crawdads Sing.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
I have too. 😀 I’m very excited to read it. Hopefully, I’ll get it done before the movies comes out.
I hope you enjoy all of these!

Thanks, Jo! 😀
I’m a mood reader too, I love doing the lists but I rarely stick to it (I read 8 out of 10 last season, which was my biggest success so far). The Stardust Thief looks good to me. Have a great summer and happy reading!
Good job on reading 8 out of you 10 books on your TBR last season. That’s amazing! I only read 4, but I’m still proud of that considering the mood thing. 😀
A Stardust Thief is SO good. I think you’ll enjoy that one loads!
I’m very excited to read it. I’ve heard such great things about it! 😀
Ooooh, great list! I read The Stardust Thief last month and it was so good that I’m still thinking about it! I hope you enjoy your summer reading.
Here’s my post for this week: http://leahs-books.com/2022/06/28/ttt-books-on-my-summer-2022-tbr/
Thank you! 💜 I’m really excited to read THE STARDUST THIEF. I’ve heard such great things about it.
Like you, I’m 100% a mood reader. I don’t make hard and fast TBR’s but I sometimes have a vague idea of what I might want to read soon. 🙂 I bet As You Wish will be a fun one.
Yep, exactly. I like to have a vague idea as well so I can plan and request things from the library if I need to. I’m a mood reader AND I’m a planner. They don’t always work well with each other, lol. 😀
I don’t do reading lists as I’m just setting myself up for failure by not being in the mood to read the books and then feeling disappointed in myself when I avoid them. Your list is amazing though and I’d definitely read most of the books on there.
I understand. I used to not make reading lists because of being a mood reader. I realized that I like to have a vague idea so I can plan and request things from the library if I need to. I’m a mood reader AND I’m a planner. They don’t always work well with each other, lol. 😀
I really loved the Stadust Thief.

I’m glad to heard that you did. 😀 I’m very excited to read it. I’ve heard such great things about it.
SEAN GRISWOLD’S HEAD is a fun one! I wonder if Leavitt is going to write more YA books. Hers are so entertaining.
I need to keep going with my re-read of HP, too. I think I’m going to keep on with the audiobooks since they’re so engaging.
Happy TTT!

I’ve heard such great things about SEAN GRISWOLD’S HEAD. I’m super excited to read it. The Harry Potter audio books are fantastic. I may read the last two via audio book so I can read while I’m unpacking. 😀
I know what you mean about needing to be in the right mood to read certain books. It’s a fun TTT list. 🙂
Thanks, Lark! 😀 I’ve noticed quite a few people are mood readers and then I know some people who can power through any book. It’s really interesting to me.
So many good books. I enjoyed Dating Dr. Dil and Where the Crawdads Sing is one of my favorites. (I just saw the movie trailer for Where the Crawdads Sing!)
I’m really excited to read both of these. I really hope I can finish WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING before the movie releases next month. We’ll see how much time I have after the move this weekend. 😀
