My March 2023 TBR

 

To avoid getting overwhelmed by choice everytime I look to pick my next book, I'm attempting to but a TBR list together for each month. That way I only need to choose the order to read them in! (And hopefully, slow down my book buying problem...)


The Witches of Ardo - Anya Bergman

A new addition to my TBR list because I cannot resist a witchy book. This one focusses on a series of witch trials in Scandinavia.


The Hundred Loves of Juliet - Evelyn Skye

The latest ARC release from NetGalley - this one is promising to be cute and cosy and very romantic. 


One Christmas Morning - Rachel Greenlaw

I KNOW that it's too early but I need to research for the December recommendations at some point surely? Another ARC release from NetGalley that I'm saving for the next cold snap before Spring. 


Fairytale - Stephen King

I don't think I need to justify this one. I have been a fan of Stephen King for years so as well as reading through the back-catalogue when I can, I also read his new books as they come out. I've seen a few reviews of Fairytale already and I'm looking forward to getting into this one during my annual leave at the start of March.


The English Fuhrer - Rory Clements

For some reason, I have a deep interest in the What Could Have Been of the Second World War. I've got Fatherland on my TBR and recently read The Man in the High Castle and they grip me in a really bizarre way. This one should be good. 


It Happened One Summer - Tessa Bailey

I definitely read these in the wrong order, but after reading Hook Line and Sinker, I've been waiting to start the prequel. I love the idea of a dark and brooding fisherman so I'm excited for a break on the American coast.


The Humans - Matt Haig

I feel like Matt Haig's books can vary in their excellence - I've read incredible work from him, and some less than great. But I have this on my bookshelf so I'm going to get stuck in in March. 


The American Roommate Experiment - Elena Armas

Reading The Spanish Love Deception was a brilliant experience so I had high hopes for the sequel. I'm looking forward to hearing about what trouble Lina's cousin is going to get into.

Murder on the Orient Express - Agatha Christie

​Started: Saturday 2nd July 2022 Finished: Saturday 2nd July 2022 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ On Saturday I travelled up to London to see Beauty and The Beast at the London Palladium and with a four hours on a train, I wanted something I could really get stuck into. I need a book small enough to fit in my bang, fast paced enough to lose myself in and lighthearted enough not to impact my mood and Murder On The Orient Express was perfect. My second delve into the Agatha Christie catalogue, I’ve already labelled her books as “filler” books - perfect for one sitting and clever enough to keep me guessing without the dreaded Book Hangover. Murder On The Orient Express sees the infamous Monsieur Hercule Poirot have an urgent recall to England, cutting his leisure time short. But oddly, the sleeper train is full, a strange and unexplained circumstance given the time of year. Through his years of connections, a temporary cabin is found to be shared with McQueen - the travel companion for Ratchett; and ...

DNF - The Final Revival of Opal & Nev - Dawnie Walton

I've been looking forward to this book so long but I'm just not in the right headspace for it. If you loved the writing style of Daisy Jones & The Six , you'll love this. In a similar vein, The Final Revival of Opal & Nev visits the history of these two performers in the 70s through interviews and accounts of the people that knew them.  Everything about it is fantastic, the imagery, the tone - everything.  I'm about 100 pages in and it's just not grabbing me at the moment. Could be something to do with the excessive weather we're having. So for now, I'm going to put it back on my TBR and try again another time.

Velvet Was The Night - Sylvia Moreno-Garcia

Started: Sunday 3rd July 2022 Finished: Monday 4th July 2022 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I definitely judged this book by it’s cover. The image of this book absolutely drew me in the moment I saw it; I didn’t care what it was about, I had to read it. And I was not disappointed. Velvet Was The Night is set in Mexico in the early 1970s and follows Maite and Elvis whilst they unbeknowingly search for the same girl amongst political unrest and activism. I know very little about the culture that this book centres around but this gave me an insight which has definitely left me wanting to know more. I have Mexican Gothic on my TBR so that is likely to feature soon.  It was a fast based book with plenty of tension and a bit of gore thrown in but not so much that I had to put it down at any stage.  My only criticism is that if you don't know much about the era and unrest that the books is set around, you won't necessarily know much more by the end of it. I personally like to read historical fi...
