It’s been a while since I’ve done a TTT, so I knew I had to do this one!! I have a lot of anticipated reads for this year! Having to narrow it down to just ten is not going to be easy though!!! Pretty sure I can do it! Full disclosure, I have already pre-ordered these books!

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish.

Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne: May 7

So I may or may not already own a copy of this book? But it’s the indie-published version, and the traditionally published version will have extra material that wasn’t in the original version! Also, I love it when I can support authors whose work I enjoy! 

At First Spite by Olivia Dade: February 13

I loved the last few books I read by Olivia Dade, and I absolutely love the stories behind why people build Spite Houses. Seriously, look some of them up, they are always hilarious. 

Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez: April 2

Abby Jimenez has quickly become an auto-buy author for me. Sure, she writes romance, and they have all the tropes, but her books have made me cry. When was the last time you could say that a contemporary romance made you cry? 

Bride by Ali Hazelwood: February 6

Ali Hazelwood is also an auto-buy author for me. Bride is a departure from her usual fare, and I am excited to see where this paranormal romance goes.

Heavenly Tyrant by Xiran Jay Zhao: April 30

Can you be excited for a sequel when you haven’t even read the first book yet? Because I am. I am also determined to read Iron Widow before this comes out. But this author is a social media darling for a reason. Plus that cover!

Sanctuary of the Shadow by Aurora Ascher: January 9

Okay, I’m gonna be honest, I do really want to read this romantasy title. But I’m also worried, based on the synopsis, that I know how this book is going to end. So now I have to know if I’m right. Thankfully it comes out today and I can find out!

That Time I Got Drunk And Saved A Demon by Kimberly Lemming: January 2

This TikTok indie darling also got a book deal. I got lucky enough to read it while it was still an indie on KU, and I can’t wait to read it again. Also Cinnamon is amazing and I love her. 

The Last Phi Hunter by Salinee Goldenburg: April 9

Not going to lie, this was a total cover pick. I mean look at it. Look at it!! It’s so pretty. Also, it does sound like a book I would like. Especially because at one point in the description it mentions that our hero gets saved by a woman who just happens to be nine months pregnant at the time. 

How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying by Django Wexler: May 21

This book describes itself as Groundhog Day meets Guardians of the Galaxy and I am here for it. Time loop stories are some of my most favorite things to read. Yes, I will read this. Thank you.

The Takeover by Cara Tanamachi: January 30

This enemies to lovers, childhood rivals romance sounds delightful and I am very excited to give it a read. Also how cute does that cover look? I have a thing for purple romance covers and tend to buy them without thinking. It’s a problem. 

Naturally, all of these books are must-reads, so I won’t get to them right away, as is my habit. What books are you looking forward to?
