I thought I would catch up with last week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt and do books I bought purely because of the covers without knowing too much about what the books were actually about. Hype definitely played a lot into most of these decisions, if a book has been super hyped on booktube or bookstagram and I see the cover in a bookstore I will most likely buy the book straight away.
This week’s Top 10 Tuesday prompt is my most anticipated releases for the second half of 2021. These are all books that are either sequels or continuations of series that I am loving or it has a blurb that has sucked me in and I can’t wait to read it!

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is books with some form of nature on the cover. So I went back through all the books I read throughout the last year and these were my ten favourites!
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is funny book titles. I couldn’t really come up with ten funny book titles so I decided to go in the opposite direction and pick out my top ten most foreboding book titles instead.
My Top Ten most foreboding book titles are:
The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Down Among the Sticks and Bones by Seanan McGuire
Burn our Bodies Down by Rory Powers
The Deck of Omens by Christine Lynn Herman
Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager
No Exit by Taylor Adams
The Damned by Renee Ahdieh
He Started It by Samantha Downing
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite
