Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is 2021 Releases I was excited to readd but didn't get to. Now, it's going to be a very short post if I just say all of them, so let me work through some of my posts from last year!
Go Tell the Bees That I am Gone by Diana Gabaldon - I have been invested in this series for at least 20 years. Normally by this stage I would have bought the book the first time I saw it in the shop and finished it. I will read it at some point I am sure.
One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston - I really enjoyed Red, White and Royal Blue so I was very excited about this book coming out.
The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah - I have several books still to read by Kristin Hannah. I did intend to read this one!
The Missing Sister by Lucinda Riley - I have listened to all of the Seven Sisters books and they are all very long books. I am just not sure when I am going to have time to listen to this one.
From the Ashes by Kristina Gruell - This is the first in a series written by a friend of mine who I met on the forums for Sara Donati back in the day.
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir - I haven't actually read Andy Weir before, but the movie of his book The Martian is one of my all time favourites.
The Fossil Hunter by Tea Cooper - This author wrote one of my few 5/5 reads for last year so I really should read this one.
Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr - I loved All the Light We Cannot See and I have heard good things about this book too.
The Last Bookshop in London by Madeline Martin - I have heard such good things about this book
Still Life by Sarah Winman - Several people I know have raved about this book. I just started it this week and so far so good.
Have you read any of these books?
Still Life is on so many bloggers' posts today. Obviously a popular post, so why does no one read it?! I'll have to check it out I think.
ReplyDeleteThe Four Winds was a good read, interesting history.
Thanks for stopping by earlier!
I think it only came out late last year so maybe that's why!
DeleteI know people personally who went through what the protagonist of Four Winds went through, and so there were parts of that story that just didn't ring true to me.
ReplyDeleteI loved Cloud Cuckoo Land.
I just picked up Cloud Cuckoo Land from the library this week Deb.
DeleteI have The Last Bookshop in London on my TBR as well.

It sounds good doesn't it Pam!
DeleteOoh I really liked The Last Bookshop In London when I read it last year, I hope you do too!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2022/01/18/top-ten-tuesday-351/
I am really looking forward to it!
DeleteI have Tea Cooper on my TBR list...she will be a new to me author. Which book of hers did you give 5 stars? https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2022/01/top-ten-tuesday-2021-releases-i-still.html
ReplyDeleteI loved The Cartographer's Secret Cindy!
DeleteI've not read any of these! I hope you enjoy them when you get the chance. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe'll see if we even get to them Poinsettia!
DeleteI really liked THE FOUR WINDS. It's depressing, but it's also very moving. It's one I still think about it even though it's been awhile since I read it.
ReplyDeleteI finished THE FOSSIL HUNTER recently. I liked the other book I've read by Cooper better, but this one was still a good read.
I hope you enjoy all these!
Happy TTT!
I will have to get to Fossil Hunter soon I think Susan!
DeleteI have The Last Bookshop in London on my TBR pile too. I keep hearing great things about Hail Mary. I hope you are able to get to these at some point!
ReplyDeleteAt one point I will I am sure!
DeleteI am curious about Project Hail Mary! I also want to read Cloud Cuckoo Land but I've told myself I have to read All The Light We Cannot See first.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely do need to read All The Light We Cannot See Bree!
DeleteI've read Bees but none of the others, although a couple are on my list. I tried the first of the Lucinda Riley sister books and didn't like it, so haven't read any others.
ReplyDeleteI like the historical aspects of the Riley books.
DeleteProject Hail Mary was amazing. Easily the best book I read all year.
ReplyDeleteThat's high praise Lori!
DeleteI loved The Martian but didn't like his second book at all. Hail Mary was pretty good. I am on the library holds list for Still Life and The Last Bookshop in London. Diana Gabaldon! Can't wait for this installment of the series.
ReplyDeleteI just need to find time to read the Gabaldon!
