March TBR

Hello everyone,

Another month is upon us, and new book titles must be selected.  I have so many books that I would like to get through by the end of the year, and of course, I keep on adding on to that pile.  Below you will find 10 books that I hope to complete in the month of March.

Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid I have been waiting for this book ever since I heard that Taylor Jenkins Reid was writing about the 1970s rock scene.  I loved The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, and I think I will certainly enjoy this next book.  It actually won’t be released until March 5, so I apologize for it not being in the picture above.  But, I will certainly do a picture for my wrap of the month.  My fingers are just itching to get my hands on it.

The Night Tiger by Yangsze Choo This is actually one of my choices for Book of the Month.  I was really drawn in by the cover of the book.  I know they say not to judge a book by its cover, but there are some book covers that immediately draw me in and I want to read them.  All I know about this book is that there is a lot of mystery and magic involved, to which I love in a book. 

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black This book has been sitting on my shelf for quite a while, and I have been meaning to read it.  I know that it is a story about fairies and a lot of Book Tubers review the book.  So I will definitely check it out.

Circe by Madeline Miller Another one of my book choices for the Book of the Month.  I was drawn to read this book because I heard it is a retelling of a mythology story, something that is not done quite often.

Sea Witch by Sarah Henning Of course based on the title, you might know what this is about.  It is basically a retelling of The Little Mermaid, except for it is from the perspective the Sea Witch.  I know that with every villain there is a back story, and to hear what they go through makes you start to sympathize with them.

The Star Machine by Jeanine Basinger I have been in the mood to learn about classic Hollywood.  I have been listening to You Must Remember This podcast a lot lately, and I am just so intrigued by how much dark history is in Hollywood.  I decided to choose this as one of my TBRs, because it is the backstory of film studios and how much pressure they placed on movie stars, especially females.

Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Nagan Again, another book where I was drawn in by the cover.  All I know about the book that it has a lot of fantasy elements.  Humans living among wild creatures. Demons.  Magic.  It just as everything that I love in a book, so I will definitely check it out.  Also, I noticed that James Patterson has hand in this book.  I did the same thing for Stalking Jack the Ripper, to which I enjoyed.

A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer This is another retelling of a classic fairy tale, Beauty and the Beast.  I noticed that this is a little bit different as the male character turns human only for the length of autumn, and the rest of the year is a beast.  It was a curse that was placed upon him until he meets someone to break the curse.

The Girl in the Tower by Katharine Arden I immediately bought the rest of the Winternight Trilogy after reading The Bear and the Nightingale.  I just felt that there was more to this story and really want to see how it ends.

Scythe by Neal Shusterman Another book that has been sitting on my shelf that needs to be read.  This book is about death, but it is placed in the heads of two teenagers.  Something really difficult to decide, right?  I have heard good things about this book, and that it is part of a series, so I'm a little worried that I might be sucked in and buy the rest of the series.

There you have it.  10 books for my TBR in the month of March.  I am hoping to read these books within this month, and not get bogged down by school and work. 

I have been having a few people ask me on how I choose the books out of my TBR list.  Well, I lay my books down into 2 rows, and then I use a deck of cards to decide what I am going to read.  Whichever has the lowest card, it is taken out of circulation.  This is down until I only have 1 left and that is the book I am going to read.  I find this a little bit easier and less judgmental, because it allows me to read something that completely surprises me.
