Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the lovely Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. Each week a new theme is suggested for bloggers to participate in. This week’s prompt is Books I Hope Santa Brings This Year!
Hello Readers! I hope today’s TTT finds you well! If you celebrate the holidays, I hope you’re past all the stressful parts and settling in to enjoy some festivities with your loved ones. And reading great books, of course!
I’m currently on a bit of an unplanned blog hiatus, but I promise to return comments when I can get back! Thankfully I had this TTT in the drafts. 🙂
Today I’ll be sharing the top ten books I would love Santa to leave under my tree. I’m only choosing books that have been published. Let me know if we share any on our wishlist! 🎄

Happy Holidays and Happy Wandering!
I haven’t read any of them, but hope Santa will bring them to you. The Winners is the only one on the list I’ve been wanting to read.
I’ve heard good things about The Winners!
Happy Holidays, Dedra. I have read The Winners and In the Weeds and enjoyed them both. I have Tom Lake on my wishlist as well. I hope Santa drops a few of these off for you this year.
Happy to hear you enjoyed The Winners and In the Weeds, Carla. Hopefully we both enjoy Tom Lake when we get to it. I did get my clothbound edition of Jane Eyre, so that was a nice surprise. <3
Great list! I hope you get some for Christmas.
Thank you!
These look fun! I want to pick up a copy of Hart and Mercy, also. Happy holidays!
Here’s my TTT this week.
Hopefully we can both pick up Hart and Mercy soon!
I loved Check & Mate, The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy, and In the Weeds. I hope you get to read those soon. Happy holidays!
I didn’t get any of these, but Check & Mate just became available on my Libby waitlist, so I should be reading it soon!
Great list, i read Check & Mate and In the Weeds are amazing stories, hope you get them 🙂
Yay! Happy to hear that.
Here’s hoping you get them all!!!
I did end up with the clothbound edition of Jane Eyre, so that was fun!
Tom Lake has been on several lists this week. I hope you like it.
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
Santa didn’t bring it, but I’m on the waitlist through Libby, so hopefully I can read it sometime this year. Ha!
I remember thinking Jade City sounded fun.
I’ve heard so many good things about that series! It’s just such a commitment to start a series. Ha!
Great choices! I loved Tom Lake, The Winners, In the Weeds, and Hart & Mercy. I hope you get them all. Merry Christmas!
I didn’t end up with any of those, but hopefully I can pick them up sometime this year. 🙂
This looks like a good selection of books. I’ve heard of only a couple of these. I hope you get them and enjoy them.
Thank you!
I haven’t read any of these, but I love the Heartstopper series, and Tom Lake is on my list as well. I’ve gotten a little burned out on Ali Hazelwood though. I hope you receive some of these and enjoy them!
I can understand why you might get burned out on Hazelwood. I didn’t end up getting her book, but it just became available through my Libby waitlist. Hopefully I enjoy it! 😉
I read Jane Eyre when I was about 8! WAY too advanced for me, but I remember I enjoyed it. I read ALL of Backman’s Beartown books, including The Winners and loved them all. I haven’t read any of the others. Fingers crossed you get most, if not all of these.
Wow! Yeah, 8 is early. I read it in high school and then reread it a few years ago. It holds up! I did end up getting the clothbound edition for Christmas, so that was a fun addition to my collection. 🙂
I’ve loved both books I’ve read by Backman. I need to read more by him! I hope Santa is good to you this year 🙂
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

Yes! He’s always such an amazing storyteller.
Heartstopper is on my Christmas list too! I hope Santa brings you all these!
I didn’t end up with Heartstopper, but hopefully I can pick it up soon. I hope you did!
