Happy Tuesday y’all! Have you missed me the past couple of weeks? We had a couple of trips in July, which didn’t leave me much time or energy for blogging. This week, Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl is asking us to share some of our favorite backlist titles. While that could be a fun post, I am still struggling to find the time and energy to do intensive blogging. Instead, this week, I’m going to share some summer 2023 additions to my TBR.
Some of these books were added because of TTT, others were added because I they sounded like good reads when I found them in the store.
All titles will take you to Goodreads, where all the synopsis are from.
Now let’s look at my Summer 2023 Additions to My TBR!

Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
I totally get you—I almost didn’t do this post and even almost decided to do a similar-ish topic as you did but I pushed myself to do it in the end cos I was feeling too lazy to also look up recent releases I wanted to feature, lol. I hope you enjoy all these books 🙂
I had a list of authors all written out, but I didn’t want to do more than that. Maybe I can do this topic for a future freebie.
I hope you love all of these!
Ooh fun! I haven’t heard of those Bond books.
Neither had I until I stumbled across them in the used book store. Whenever I see a Bond book, I tend to pick it up.
I’ve never read one but I’ve seen some other bloggers review a few and they look fun. Interesting, I imagine, to see how they differ from the shows.
I hope you enjoy all of these!
My TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2023/08/01/top-ten-tuesday-431/
I loved The Happy Life of Isadora Bentley!! I hope you do too, it was so funny and gave all the feels.
I look forward to reading it then.
Italy sounds fun! Enjoy the new reads
Nice list!
I have not read any of these. I so enjoyed The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper, by Phaedra Patrick, that I read her next one, which was super disappointing (https://wordsandpeace.com/2019/03/19/book-review-the-library-of-lost-and-found/). So I’m not planning on reading this one here.
Oh no, I’m hoping to read The Library of Lost and Found in the coming weeks.
I haven’t read any of these, but Assistant to the Villain sounds like fun! Happy reading!
My TTT: https://bookwyrmknits.com/2023/08/01/top-ten-tuesday-forgotten-backlist-titles/
I like to add to my lists as time goes on. It’s nice to stay flexible.
Assistant to the Villain seems like such a fun read!
Welcome back! I have missed you 🙂
I haven’t heard of most of these books, but a lot of them look like ones I’d be interested in reading. I’ll have to take a closer look at some of them, especially since I love historical fiction and mysteries.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
Susan

I read a early review about The Warsaw Sisters, sounds good
