Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Books on My Winter 2025-2026 To-Read List & Tell Me Something Tuesday: Have you been disappointed by the end of a series? If so, did you read that author again?

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. 

Another day of express posts. Our annual Adopt-A-Family program is coming to a close, so I will be away from the computer for a day or two. I will catch up on visiting your blogs later this week. 

Today, we are sharing books on our Winter 2025-2025 TBR list. At least one of them may look familiar. 

Top Ten Books on My 

Winter 2025-2026 To-Read List 

I grabbed Christmas on Reindeer Road by Debbie Mason as a reward from Thriftbooks.

Chapters and Second Chances by Evelyn Grace Berry was a recent giveaway win. 

Lea Schizas sent me a copy of Old Flames, New Beginnings when it first came out. 

I've owned Bright Lights, Prairie Dust by Karen Grassle since it first came out. 

Story by Story by Wendy Lou Lee is her latest book. 

I picked up Dick Van Dyke's 100 Rules for Living to 100 thanks to Audible credits. 

I was on the launch team for I Heard the Bells by Darlene L.Turner et al. 

Christmas at Whispering Creek by Barbara M. Britton is a Kindle freebie I grabbed a while ago. 

I bought a Kindle copy of The End of the Treachery by H.B. Berlow to continue this series. 

I was on the launch team for The Christmas Book Flood by Roseanna M. White. 

Tell Me Something Tuesday (TMST) is hosted by Jen Twimom at That's What I'm Talking About. TMST is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general. Participation is optional, and you leave your comments in the weekly post when participating. Check it out if you would like to join.

Today, we reflect on book series. Have I ever been disappointed by the end of a series? Likely, only because there are no more books. Such was the case with Charlottte Hubbard's Promise Lodge series and Karen White's Tradd Street series. It was also a bummer when Duffy Brown's Consignment Shop Mystery series ended. Perhaps the saddest series endings for me were the following: Marilyn Meredith/F.M. Meredith's Tempe Crabtree and Rocky Bluff P.D. books and the Left Behind series. If these authors wrote new books for any of these series, I would definitely read them. Heck, if Charlotte or Marilyn came out of retirement, I would read any of their books in a heartbeat. 

Looking forward to reading your answers.
