The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read . Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! I'm one of the featured blogs this week! Along with Amanda of The Darling Bookworm . This week’s Question: How many books have you got on your TBR list? I recently had a bit of a cull of my TBR list so now it is sitting at 269. I'm trying my hardest to get it below 200 by the end of the year but I really don't see it happening. I'd currently be happy if I managed to get it below 225. However, I did recently have a look through my TBR on Goodreads and deleted a few books that I don't think I will actually ever read - I'm not even to sure how they got there anyway. Follow me via Goodreads , Facebook , Bloglovin and Pinterest and also via email to myexpandingbookshelf@gmail.com. Feel fre...
I literally just commented on another TTT post saying that I read Wild Swans years ago and I remember enjoying it :) I've seen a lot about How to Stop Time by Matt Haig and I'm definitely looking forward to trying it at some point. Great list!
ReplyDeleteI'm still reading Wild Swans and it's so good! I loved How to Stop Time. Definitely one of my favourites.
DeleteI’ve had _How to Stop Time_ on hold at my library for a minute. I’m looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!

I loved it so much! I hope you get your hands on it soon.
DeleteWe did a similar theme this week. I added the Eliza Hamilton book but I also loved The Book Thief. Here is my post-https://paigesofbook.blogspot.com/2021/11/top-ten-tuesday-books-to-read-if-you.html.
ReplyDeleteThe Book Thief is one I'll always remember. Thanks for visiting!
DeleteWe Are Not Free by Traci Chee is another great historical fiction that people should read.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll need to check it out.
DeleteI need to make it my goal to read "The Book Thief" next year as I keep saying I'm going to read it, but have had no time!! I also wouldn't say I love history, but my list today proves otherwise, LOL. Here is my post: https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2021/11/top-ten-tuesday-new-authors.html
ReplyDeleteThe Book Thief is such a good book. I hope you can read it soon.
DeleteHistory and historical fiction are two of my favorite genres. Ditto most anything by Michael Morpurgo, including 'An Eagle in the Snow' and 'A Medal for Leroy.' Good list!
ReplyDeleteI love a good historical fiction. War Horse is the only Morpurgo I've read. I really should read more though.
DeleteAww, War Horse. I love that book so much, despite its sadness.
ReplyDeleteAnd I remember seeing Rembrandt's Daughter at the library, but I don't think I ever got around to reading it (alas, just checked the catalog and it's gone now). Nice to see an older YA rec.
I've owned Rembrandt's Daughter since I was a teenager and I reread it so many times back then. I think it must have been the book that started my love of historical fiction.
DeleteThese all look good, but I was immediatley drawn to How To Stop Time, Matt Haig because I recently finished The Midnight Library.
ReplyDeleteI have loved both How to Stop Time and The Midnight Library. They were both 5 stars for me, so I highly recommend checking it out.
DeleteThe Book Thief is one of my favourite books!

I loved it when I read it years ago. I really should try and reread it soon.
