Top Ten Tuesday: 2021 Releases I was Excited to Read But Didn't Get To (18 January 2022)
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is 2021 releases I was excited to read but didn't get to. Not quite 10 this week, but I didn't fully get back into reading until partway through the year.
I had a bit of a shock when Empire of the Vampire turned up and I saw how chunky it was. I can see why lots of people didn't get round to it. Once I decided to tackle it, I did enjoy it, though it could have been shorter!
I usually love Jodi Picoult books, but the latest one is one I'm probably going to steer clear of for a while, fiction is my escape from the pandemic, don't want to read about it there too! My TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2022/01/18/top-ten-tuesday-351/
I read the Jodi Picoult book, but didn't enjoy it very much -- just much too soon for a book so heavily about COVID. I did really like Under the Whispering Door!

ReplyDeleteI read and enjoyed The Holiday Swap..I thought it'd be the opposite. Happy reading! My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/2022-resolutions-and-goals/
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed The Holiday Swap, it was a super fun read. And I have The Library on my TBR as well.

The Library is one I'm hoping to finally read this year. It looks like a very fun book. :)

I need to get to the Picoult book at some point, too. *Sigh* So many books, so little time...
