Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Click on the link for more info and to find out about future topics.
This weeks theme is: Books on my Summer 2019 TBR
A Book of Bones by John Connolly – I’ve only very recently discovered the Charlie Parker series. I started with The Woman in the Woods as some of the themes/plots carried over into this latest book, so I cannot wait to see what’s going to happen next. At 700+ pages this one should keep me occupied for a while, and when I’m done I’ll hopefully be able to go back and read earlier books from this series.
Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman – I’ve just watched the tv series and it definitely left me wanting to read the book. It was just so different, and I can’t wait to see the similarities/differences with the original story. I also can’t believe that this will be my first Terry Pratchett book.
Tomorrow by Damian Dibben – A 217 year old dog seeking his master across various points in history. Sounds pretty unique to me.
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid – I’ve seen so many good reviews for this one that I’m intrigued already.
Circe by Madeline Miller – The number of times I’ve mentioned this book previously and I still haven’t read it!
Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie – Continuing my discovering of Christie books, Death on the Nile feels like a good choice for summer reading.
NOS4A2 by Joe Hill – There’s a new series based on this book I think, and I wonder whether I’ll end up watching that before I finally read the book. That’s what usually happens!
I’ll probably try and read at least a couple of Thrillers over the summer months and Twisted by Steve Cavanagh and Conviction by Denise Mina have both caught my eye recently.
More Fantasy definitely needs to feature in my summer reading too, but at the moment I’m not sure what to read. All suggestions welcome…
So, have you read any of the books that made my list this week? If so, what did you think of them? See you again next time for another Top Ten Tuesday.
I have Circe in my TBR pile (it’s been there for a while unfortunately). I think Death on the Nile is a great choice for your Agatha Christie – it’s a classic one with such a clever plot.

I don’t know why Circe hasn’t made it to the top of my TBR yet because I’ve seen so many good reviews.
Looking forward to another Poirot too 😀

You really do need to get to Circe. lol. I read Good Omens a few weeks ago. Haven’t watched the show yet. But I have started watching NOS4A2 and haven’t read the book yet. I picked up the audiobook and will hopefully fit it in before the season ends. lol.

Hopefully I’ll start Circe soon. Am waiting for Good Omens from the library but the request lists are long at the moment, probably because of the tv show 🙂

Yes… Death on the Nile is good! Gosh, but I love reading these even when I’m not participating (I just published another author interview on my blog instead). You might want to take a look – Jane Davis is an amazing author!

I love Neil Gaiman, but haven’t ever read Terry Pratchett, so this is high on my list of to-be-read as well.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

There are so many books on here I want to get to as well. Especially The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. Everyone keeps raving about that book. I mostly chose thrillers for my TTT list. Good luck on the tbr!
