Well, I do love a good list. So fun to extend my TBR

We thank goodness some these were on other list, so I only had to add a few🙄😊

Oh my goodness - Pride and Prejudice in Pakistan. Guess what just went on my list?!!

And the wishlist grows again...

Is it wrong that I added a book because of the spectacular cover?

NO! 😈

Which one? There are a few I love.
Black Leopard Red Wolf is amazing looking, and I picked up a copy a couple weeks ago.

I do judge a book by its cover.

I had 4 already on my TBR, but added one.

I put about 4 more on my wishlist and some were already there.

The Care and Feeding of Ravenously Hungry Girls so tempting to me.

Mouthful of Birds looks divine!

Agreed, and that was my guess... great minds 😉

Susie wrote: "Mouthful of Birds looks divine!"

It is a really cool cover and title as well.

BnB, you share really great lists!

I had already added some of these that overlap with the list of forthcoming books posted a little while back, but I found these three to add to my TBR:

The Dragonfly Sea by Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor
Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
Bangkok Wakes to Rain by Pitchaya Sudbanthad

Bangkok Wakes to Rain is on my TBR.
The Dragonfly Sea looks really interesting and I've been undecided about Daisy Jones.

I thought I would just add a list which I found today onto an existing discussion.

This is for Historical Fiction Fans:

Daisy Jones has been long-standing on my list. I didn’t even know it wasn’t out yet....

I've been holding off on that, but We Must Be Brave andAmerican Spy are on my TBR.

I am intrigued by Finding Dorothy and have mixed feelings about Annelies, it almost seems a little sacrilegious.

I think I am going to have to add Corregidora to my list.

Amy I just got that book for my Book of the Month selection!

I am torn between that or Queenie...

I was too! I went with Daisy as I have been seeing it all over the place.

It seems like there is a new giveaway for it every week or so. Ever since I read Evelyn Hugo, I've been requesting it and waiting for it. I guess that's what the giveaways are supposed to do - make us impatient for it.

I have only entered like two giveaways for Daisy. It’s been awhile since I won one. Last one was the Rainwatcher. I’d probably get entered in more if I moved the 15 books to my actual TBR!

I know a lot of you like to read the "longlist" for prizes-This one came my way so that I thought I would share-I have read 2 of them(The Silence of the Girls and Circe), but probably will wait on the rest to see what all you Literary Ladies read and like-Fair warning, Milkman is on it

I am literally afraid to look at the Read It Forward list after seeing what it is entitled.

I need to read more and spend less time on Goodreads lol!

Heck no! I often choose books based on their cover (although I shouldn't).

I just finished Bottled Goods last night, and absolutely loved it. I’ve read eight so far, and I think this is a really strong list.
