by amyleighreads2 Comments on ☀️ Summer TBR ☀️

So I’m a week early for Top 10 Tuesday but it is time again for our seasonal TBR’s. I have been going pretty well with these over the year, I usually end up reading at least 50% of the books I pick over the course of the three months. So for this summer, I am not really buying many new books I am going to try and get to my physical TBR which are:

The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

Heart of Flames by Nicki Pau Preto

Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare

A Song Below Water by Bethany C. Morrow

Shorefall by Robert Jackson Bennett

The Rage of Dragons by Evan Winter

These Witches Don’t Burn by Isabel Sterling

The Girl and the Stars by Mark Lawrence

Queen of Volts by Amanda Foody

The Deck of Omens by Christine Lynn Herman
