I almost didn’t do a Top Ten Tuesday post this week, I’ve been a little caught up with work. But since I finished most of what I needed to get done this morning, I thought I’d hit you with my Summer TBR. These are either the books I’m currently reading, or the books that I have on hold that I expect to be reading soon.
- The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X. R. Pan (YA) – I picked this one up on a whim when I went to the library for something else.
- See You in the Cosmos by Jack Cheng (MG) – I added this one to my TBR today after I saw it in the Kid Lit email from Book Riot.
- Speak No Evil by Uzodinma Iweala (Adult) – This was recommeded to me by Kate Olson. I’m currently reading it.
- The Pants Project by Cat Clarke (MG) – I added this one to my TBR for the same reason I added See You in the Cosmos. Thanks, Book Riot.
- We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves (Adult) by Karen Joy Fowler – I’m reading this one with The Nerdfighteria Online Book Club. We’ll discuss it in August.
- Every Watering Word by Tanya Manning-Yarde (Poetry) – I’m reading this one for review. I haven’t done that in a long time.
- Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir (YA) – I’ve been waiting for this one. It’s on hold.
- Restore Me by Tahreh Mafi (YA) – I’ve been waiting for this one too. I didn’t know there was going to be another book in the Shatter Me series.
- Binti: Home by Nnedi Okorafor (Afrofuturism – Adult) – I’m waiting on the audio for this one. I loved the first.
- From Twinkle with Love by Sandhya Menon – Currently reading/listening to this one.
What are you reading this summer?
For more Top Ten Tuesday, visit Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.
The title of We are All Completely Beside Ourselves is just so intriguing to me… like I didn’t really know much about the book when I encountered it (shelving books at the library where I work) but I haven’t been able to get the title out of my head… I may have to pick it up just because of the title.
Hope these all go well for you!

I must get my hands on Speak No Evil. Beasts of No Nation is one of my all-time favorite books. I had not realized the author had another book out. I look forward to your thoughts on Every Watering Word. I am always on the look out for good poetry collections. I hope you enjoy all of these, Eli. They all sound good.

When Dimple Met Rishi was somewhat meh for me, so I’m not really all that eager to get myself a copy of From Twinkle, With Love.. Guess I’ll wait for some reviews to pop up before I make up my mind permanently, ha.
The Astonishing Color of After is on my wish list. I’ve heard good things about that one!
Happy reading!

Me too. I don’t think my library has it yet. I’m hopeful it will come in in July. Disadvantage of living in a small city.

I’ve seen SO many good reports on Sabaa’s books, but haven’t read them. Maybe someday! One I cannot wait to read is “From Twinkle, With Love.” It looks SO cute. 🙂
Thanks so much for visiting Finding Wonderland.
