Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Books I Wanted To Read in 2017
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and The Bookish.
So we all know that every year thousands of books are
published. Many of those books catch our attention and we add them to our
to-be-read lists. Yet sometimes, we just can’t get to them when we’d like to.
Today we’re dealing with just that subject. For this Top Ten Tuesday, we’re
listing ten books that we wanted to read in 2017, but just didn’t get to. And
without further ado, here’s my list.
10: Jane of Austin
I’ve heard mostly good things about this book. It’s a
modern take on Sense and Sensibility,
which is one of my favorite books, so I’d like to read it sometime.
L.M. Montgomery is my favorite author. I would love to
read this novel based on her teen years sometime.
I really liked the first two books in The Regency Brides. They’re good regency romances. Looking forward to seeing how the series wraps up.
7: Behind The Scenes
I read the prelude to the Apart From The Crowd series, At
Your Request, and really enjoyed it. I hope to read the novels someday.
I don’t think this book was released last year, but after
reading Heffington’s Fly Away Home
last year, I added this historical mystery to my want-to-read list. Unfortunately,
I didn’t get around to reading it last year, but I do have it on my Kindle and
am looking forward to reading it this year.
This book has been everyone online lately! It seems like
a really interesting read.
4: The Valley of Fear
Obviously, this book was not published in 2017. I started
reading the Sherlock Holmes mysteries last year, and this is the next one up
for me.
I just downloaded this book and it seems like it will be
a great read. Can’t wait to read it!
I loved the first book in The Mulligan Sisters series. It’s a really great WWII novel that
I’m pretty sure is my favorite by Melody Carlson. I’m really looking forward to
revisiting the series.
1: A Name Unknown
This book sounds really interesting. It’s set during the
Edwardian era which is my favorite. I can’t wait to read it someday.
So how about you, readers and friends? Were there any
books you really wanted to read last year, but just didn’t get a chance to?
Tell me about them in the comments!

Thank you! I hope you get to all the books on your list this year, too! :-)
