Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Books I Can’t Believe I’ve Never Read & Tell Me Something Tuesday: What are your favorite beach reads?



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. 

Today's Top Ten Tuesday asks us to share the books we can't believe we have read. Oh, there are lots of those, but not a lot of blogging time, so here is a short and sweet list:
  • Books by the Little House on the Prairie cast that I have owned for years
  • More of the Cedar Cove series by Debbie Macomber
  • The books before Smell of Death in the Tempe Crabtree series by Marilyn Meredith
  • The books by Vannetta Chapman that I still have here from years ago when I was on her street team
  • Any book about North Carolina history that I have bought on vacation
  • Any Christmas fiction I own
  • Any books I bought from authors at a writers conference 
  • Any books by local authors that I've bought from book events
  • The last book of Karen White's Tradd Street series
  • Any nonfiction books by David McCullough

Tell Me Something Tuesday asks: What are your favorite beach reads? 

This is a tough one, because I will read just about anything on the beach. It doesn't matter the genre. Just to be by the beach and reading means so much to me. Over the years, I've shifted to more Kindle reading (because lugging 10 paperbacks or hardcovers on vacation is backbreaking), but I am not picky about what I read. 

July 2025 - children's books
July 2024 - Christian romance, short story collection, and historical mystery
July 2023 - Personal growth, Amish romance, poetry, and devotionals

As long as it's a book, I will bring it to the beach.

On the road today, but I will visit as soon as I can.
