This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a freebie and I thought I would take this opportunity to make myself a little more accountable by listing 10 books on my physical TBR currently that I have been definitely avoiding!

Back in January I posted about 5 books I really wanted to read in 2021 and now that we are halfway through the year I thought I would post an update! At this stage I’ve only read 1 out of 5 of the books so I really have to get cracking if I want to complete them all.
The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin

My Rating: ⭐️4/5 stars
The other four books I still need to read are:
