Today’s Top Ten Tuesday<\/a> topic is a quarterly favorite of mine — what I’m hoping to read this season. Before I answer, I thought I’d look back at a few previous iterations of this list, as well as some of the lists for what I’d hoped to read in 2018, to see how I’ve fared previously.<\/p>\n

In January, I wrote about 10 of the books I’d meant to read last year<\/a>. I have since read (and enjoyed) two of them — Wonder Woman: Warbringer<\/em> and Magpie Murders<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In December, I shared 10 2018 titles I intended to read this year<\/a>. While, as of today, half of that list has been published, thus far I’ve not read any. I’ve bought Down and Across<\/em> and it’s sitting in the pile in front of me.<\/p>\n

I am doing better in terms of the books I wrote I planned to read this winter<\/a>: I’ve read three — Teetotaled<\/em>, Turtles All the Way Down<\/em>, and Far from the Tree<\/em> — and am on the hold list for a fourth. <\/p>\n

Finally, I went all the way back to last spring<\/a> to see what I’d hoped to read then. I’ve finished four of them and have a fifth on the go currently.<\/p>\n

The lesson here is that no matter what I put on this list, I’m likely to only read, at best, half of them, which is really depressing, but in keeping with how fast I add new titles to my TBR list. Without further ado and for whatever it’s worth, here are the Top Ten Books on My Spring TBR List:<\/p>\n
