A Delightfully Hefty Stack

One of my goals for this year is to read through my physical TBR, and I gathered it up to give myself a clear visual.

It was delightful.

Hefty, exciting novels, a non-fiction read, two (maybe three?) middle-grade, and those falling into categories of fantasy, sci-fi, historical, contemporary, and wonky.

A very good mix for this mood reader. I’m especially excited to knock out some of the books I’ve had on there for a while.

Let’s do just a quick run through to meet them.

Ignite by Jenna Therese // I treated myself to this debut indie superhero novel in the fallhttps, and I can’t wait to gobble it up now that I have time.

Orphan’s Song by Gillian Bronte Adams // This book has been lauded by two very separate parts of my nerd life, and I recently got my interest piqued. Joshua bought it for me for Christmas.

Veiled Rose by Anna Elisabeth Stengl // After Heartless wrecked me, I promised myself I’d read on the series and this second book has been on my shelf for a while. Something tells me I’m really going to like it.

The Curious Christian by Barnabas Piper // One of my favorite mementos of the Ghost of Christian Bookstore Past, I read the forward of this one and it caught my attention.

From This Moment by Kim Vogel Sawyer // Not only is the cover adorable, but I love this author’s stuff, so I’ll give it a shot.

Irena’s Children by Mazzeo/Farrell // Stories of hope in the midst of tragedy are my favorite part of history, so this sounds right up my alley. Hoping the middle grade vibes it gives off are true.

A Tale of Time City by Diana Wynne Jones // She’s apparently the G.O.A.T. so I figured I should try something by her soon and this looks fun.

The Key to Extraordinary by Natalie Lloyd // My younger sisters absolutely love her writing so this is another author I’m going to give a shot. I pretty much saw the book at the thriftstore and couldn’t pass it up.

Not pictured: Catacombs by Paul McCusker (I accidentally left it at my parent’s house)

The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall (it’s in the freezer, according to my thrifted book protocol )

In Search of a Prince by Toni Shiloh (I preordered the Kindle copy, though I’m seriously considering also preordering paperback )

What are you hoping to read this year?
