Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme that currently resides at The Artsy Reader Girl and features bloggers sharing lists on various book topics.  In this latest Top Ten Tuesday participants need to go back to their old Seasonal TBR lists and see which books from them they have still not read.  This was a very interesting and useful topic to look at as this once again reminds me about all the awesome books out there that I was excited for but which I never got around to reading.

There are quite a few books out there now that I have been meaning to read for a very long time.  Many of these books have been featured to a degree on my blog either through optimistic Waiting on Wednesday posts or in shameful “I wish I had read” Top Ten lists, where I air my great regrets about not checking out a certain release (to be fair, I only have so much time and there are so many awesome books out there).  So now again it is good to go back and see which ones I have missed to remind me of what I need to read and provide some motivation for it.  I just did a similar post last week regarding books from the first half of the year that I still need to read, however, I like the idea of going back and looking at some previous Top Ten Tuesday posts and seeing what other books lie there.

To appear on this list, a potential book needed to be both unread by me and have appeared on a previous Top Ten Tuesday Seasonal TBR post that I have done.  I chose to exclude a couple of my more recent Seasonal TBR posts, namely those from 2022, as that would have just doubled up my list from last week.  Despite these exclusions, there were still several lists to scour for potential entries and I was able to determine several books that would be appropriate for this list.  However, this wasn’t as easy as I had thought, as it turns out I’m pretty good at getting through the books on these TBR lists, and most had been read and reviewed by me.  In the end, I did manage to find 10 entries, as well as a few honourable mentions, and the results below are quite intriguing.  So let us see what made the cut.

Honourable Mentions:

Providence by Max Barry

 

Star Trek: Rogue Elements by John Jackson Miller

 

The Liar’s Knot by M. A. Carrick

Top Ten Tuesday:

The Maleficent Seven by Cameron Johnston

 

Gamora & Nebula: Sisters in Arms by Mackenzie Lee

Well, that ended up being a rather interesting list.  As you can see from the above, there are still several outstanding novels that I really need to read, and I hope that I get the chance at some point in the future.  All 10 of the above sound like incredible reads, and I honestly have not purposely chosen not to read any of them, I just haven’t had the time or ability to check them out.  Hopefully that will eventually change, as I am extremely keen for several of them, and I have no doubt they will be epic reads.
