Carried Over from Last Month’s TBR

Sunk in Love is currently sitting just to the left of me on my office desk. It follows Roslyn and Liam, a married couple, who after 5 years have separated and are headed toward divorce. However, in her family where everyone but her is a doctor, Roslyn is the black sheep. She’s only redeemed by the fact that she’s married to Liam, who is a doctor and beloved by Ros’s family. So, when her family grows suspicious of Ros’s continued excuses for Liam’s absence at family functions and her grandparents request/demand that Liam preside over their vow renewal, she convinces Liam to fake a happily married relationship for the duration of the vow renewal cruise.

New Releases

I think for New Releases, I should put them on my TBR as ‘Possibles’ or ‘Bonus’ books, since while I intend to buy them, I may not, or they may not release in enough time for me to pick them up and read them.

American Fantasy is a story about a recently divorced Annie who is bullied by her sister to take a cruise on a boat featuring her favorite boy band from her youth. Can she form a real and lasting romantic connection with one of her childhood crushes, in a sea of other middle-aged fans? Expected release on April 7.

I’m not sure how The Book Witch crossed my radar. Rainy March is a book witch who can enter book worlds to defend them from attacks from within (rogue heroes) and without (malicious alterations). She’s been forbidden to see the Duke of Chicago, at the risk of her magic, but when her grandfather disappears, she needs the Duke’s help. I’m not sure if magical realism is my jam, but it sounds like it might be a cute read. Release date is April 7.

The Escape Game by its nature as a YA murder mystery is not normally a book I would gravitate to; however, I have liked Marissa Meyer’s writing (and the Cinder series), and the cast of characters – with a cryptographer, math whiz, game master, and potential murderer – reminds me a little of Ready Player One, so I’m willing to give it a shot. Expected April 7.

While scouring bookseller websites and YouTube videos to try and find out what books are coming out in April, Ally Condie’s name jumped off the screen to me. I enjoyed the Matched series, so I’m interested to see if I will like her adult mystery/thriller, The Girls Trip. In this story, Hope (actress), Ash (internet personality), and Caro (doctor) who met in an online book club and are not meeting in person. Each of them has reasons to want to escape their daily life and they choose to meet up at a National Park. But what happens when one of them disappears? Releases April 7.

I first discovered Beth O’Leary in Swept Away, which was a cute closed-door romance where the protagonists literally get swept away to sea. In The Name Game, two people named Charlie Jones arrive at a remote island, expecting to me the new farm-shop manager. It sounds like lighthearted shenanigans will ensue. Release day on April 7.

The bright, candy colors of the cover are what initially drew my attention to The Paris Match. Their marriage ended amicably, but only about a year later might be too soon for Layla to face the former in-laws and attend her ex-sister-in-law’s wedding. When she inadvertently gives the bride cold feet, the groom’s best man forces her to help him fix it. Expected April 7.

My friend, Kelly, introduced me to Shield of Sparrows, and we are both eagerly anticipating Book 2! Finally, we will get Rites of the Starling on April 7. Now that I have read The Bridge Kingdom, this feels like it will be a bit similar with many kingdoms that have different resources and try to solve their political strife with marrying their children to build alliances.

I am committed to reading all of Olivia’s National Parks books, and I hope that she writes one for each of the 63 National Parks. We just got Off-Limits Love in Shenandoah and now we are getting Tenor Willits Gets the Yips on April 10. These are self-published, so the release date is a little different from the other books, and I was only able to pre-order the ebook version from Amazon Kindle. I have paperback copies of the other two books, so I’m hopeful that once the release day comes, I’ll be able to order a physical copy. I think this book is more of a novella than a full novel at 159 pages. We met the MMC, Tenor Willits, in Off-Limits Love in Shenandoah, where he has been working with Lynette to overcome his “yips,” and heads to the Petrified Forest for a brief break from his demanding sport.

Stay for a Spell just sounds like fun! Princess Tandy hates princess duty and being cursed to remain in a bookshop until she unlocks her heart’s desire seems like a reward instead of a curse. However, back at home her princess duties are piling up and her parents are frantic to get her back, so they start sending princes to woo her back. The magic happens on April 14.

The Thorn Queen is the sequel to The Rose Bargain and releases on April 14. I purchased, but have not yet read the first book yet, but I am interested in it and might pick up book 2 this month.

Book Club Picks

For my brother’s Moon Lit Bookclub selection for April, we will be reading The Traitor Queen by Danielle L. Jensen. This is the first time that his book club has selected a sequel as the monthly choice. I started reading it as soon as I finished The Bridge Kingdom, but I’m only 18% of the way through it. In this sequel, Lara’s husband has been captured by her father and she has to rescue him, as well as check on the status of her warrior sisters, who were raised alongside her to be weapons for their father.

For my brother’s Welcome to the Apocalypse book club, we will be reading Reset by Mark Tufo. Life as we know it has come to a sudden halt after an EMP goes off. This book focuses on some unlikely heroes (an addict, two pre-teens, and a person with a terminal illness) trying to survive. This book was available for ‘free’ (thanks, subscription), via Kindle Unlimited.

A local independent bookstore, Love & Other Books, has between 4-5 book clubs across different topics/genres each month. This month, I managed to catch the events before all of the spots were sold out and Star Shipped sounded like the most fun read. It follows two actors on a long-running sci-fi show who can’t stand each other. Simon finally gets to leave the show at the end of his contract, but he doesn’t want it to look like he was fired for being difficult to work with (even if he kind of is hard to work with). Charlie is wild, outgoing, and beloved by everyone on set, and just the PR solution that Simon needs. Could a fake friendship save Simon’s reputation? What happens if the fake friendship turns into a real relationship?

(Overdue) Library Books

Okay, I don’t have any overdue library books at the moment, but I did just place a couple holds, so I’ll add these to the TBR as ‘Possibles,’ since it depends on when the holds will become available. One of the holds is for Star Shipped, listed above. The other is for Our Perfect Storm by Carley Fortune. I didn’t realize it when I put in the hold, but the Carley Fortune book isn’t going to be released until May 5.

Our Perfect Storm by Carley Fortune – I think this is a standalone book. It features Frankie and George, childhood friends who have always had a volatile on/off relationship. Frankie invites George to be her best man at her wedding, not knowing if he will actually make an appearance. He does, but then her fiancé calls it off the next morning. Confused and heartbroken, she agrees to George’s request to go on her planned honeymoon with him, as a last chance to repair their friendship.

Random Selections

The Girlfriend Zone by Lauren Blakely – I started reading this book almost a year ago on April 20, 2025 and recently picked it back up again. I have been enjoying Lauren’s books, especially this series, even though they are on the edge of being too spicy for my preference. This is an age-gap romance, where Miles is given a second chance at his NHL career after a severe injury and is hoping to impress the coach and be given a co-captain position on his new team. He meets and has a steamy encounter with Leighton, before finding out that she’s off-limits as one of his new coach’s daughters. I’m pretty far into the book at this point and will likely finish it early in the month.

The “Possibles” List

Mayhem and the Mortal by Shanora Williams – I received an ARC of this book by Entangled/Red Tower Books. It arrived taped up in a plastic note with a note from the post office. The box it was in was completely destroyed and the book inside was terribly mangled as well. I feel so sorry for this poor book! The blurb on the back sounds very exciting: To save her sister from a soul-devouring curse, Zaira has to cross a nightmare landscape with the help of Thane Valkor, an assassin and walking red flag. It sounds like this book may have had to cross a nightmare landscape to make it to my house!

The Rose Bargain by Sasha Peyton Smith – This is the first book in the series, and the second book is in the New Releases section above. I already own this book, so it would make sense if I were to finally read it in time to buy the next book in the series. It’s billed as a Regency-era YA Fantasy, so it’s got a lot going on! London has been under the control of an immortal fae queen, who tries to save her evil reputation by allowing each person to bargain for their deepest desire. Ivy thinks that marrying Prince Bram will solve her family’s problems and joins the competition for his hand in marriage.

Lift Me Up by Milly Johnson – This was a bonus free short story from the Amazon First Reads program. Tam was promoted at work to acting Managing Director, but then her job was taken from her and given to Jack. When they are stuck together in an elevator, he recognizes her capability which inspires her to fight for her true self.

The Final System by Anthony Tardiff – This was a free selection from the Amazon First Reads program. A vigilante hacker and a young politician risk everything to destroy a chilling new advancement in artificial intelligence. Jason is seeking revenge for his sister, and Chloe is realizing that the world that her daughter is growing up in is slowly losing its humanity.

Annie Knows Everything by Rachel Wood – After being fired from her dream job, Annie applies for a tech job she is not qualified for, but she tries to make up for her lack of coding skill with the social skills her nerdy coworkers lack. She also has to attend her sister’s second engagement party, to a man that Annie knows is the absolute worst. What makes this more excruciating is that Annie ruined her sister’s first engagement party, and her sister has not forgiven her.

Carried Over from Last Month’s TBR

Throne of Secrets by Kerri Maniscalco – I have been reading this little by little throughout February. It is sitting on my nightstand and I try to read every evening; however, usually I don’t get very far before I turn off the lights and go to sleep. It is an interesting story so far. This is Book #2 in the series and the Prince of Gluttony is fighting a secret threat to his circle that involves the ice dragons to the north of his territory. At the same time, a young reporter is trying to feed her ungrateful family by writing about the Prince’s exploits.

New Releases

Just Friends by Haley Pham – Most people know of Haley’s husband, Ryan Trahan, as a popular YouTube personality, but I found Haley’s YouTube channel first and enjoyed her bookish content. Once I start enjoying someone’s content, I do like to support them when I can. I also like that Haley prefers closed-door/low spice romances herself and is proud of her Christian faith, so I’m eager to see how this reflects in her first novel. It tells the story of Blair and Declan, childhood friends-to-lovers, who suffer some kind of traumatic event that disrupts their relationship. I’m interested in seeing how Haley navigates the dual timelines in her storytelling. This book releases on March 3.

Off-Limits Love in Shenandoah by Olivia McCarthy – Olivia is a local author who attends my church and writes closed-door romances and YA fantasy. This book is the second in her National Parks RomCom series and releases on March 6. I will 1000% read all of the books in this series, both to support Olivia, and also because I love National Parks and love seeing places I’ve been used as locations in novels. This story contains age gap and brother’s best friend tropes. The FMC, Lynette, runs into trouble hiking the Appalachian Trail and Ben comes to her rescue. While I haven’t been to Shenandoah National Park yet, I have hiked about 0.0002% of the Appalachian Trail! (Yes, I did the math.)

Toe to Toe by Falon Ballard – Releasing on March 10, this follows Allegra, a principle ballerina who is told that she needs to work on her sex appeal. Enter Cord, who needs help choreographing a partner piece for his show. While I do love sports romances, those set in the dance world have been hit-or-miss for me, but something in the blurb caught my attention when I was perusing the anticipated releases.

The Wings That Bind by Briar Boleyn – Also releasing on March 10, this is the third book in the Bloodwing Academy series. I pre-ordered the special edition to match the first book, On Wings of Blood, which I read and liked. I do not yet have the second book in the series (I think I’m waiting to see if they publish a matching edition), so I’ll likely not add this book to my TBR this month. I didn’t read the blurb too much, because I didn’t want any spoilers.

Beneath by Ariel Sullivan – Releasing on March 24, this is a prequel to Conform. I have a copy of Conform, but I haven’t read it yet, so while I may pick up this book this month, I won’t be officially adding it to my TBR. This book is set hundreds of years before Conform and follows characters 6 years after a nuclear disaster.

The Night We Met by Abby Jimenez – Abby’s novels have been consistently enjoyable for me, so it’s no surprise that I added this one to my list as soon as I heard that a new book would be releasing on March 31. Since it’s releasing so late in the month, I won’t be adding it to the TBR. I’m a little confused by the blurb. It sounds like Larissa connected with a guy during a car ride home from a concert, but then gets into a relationship with his best friend. Did the boyfriend steal his friend’s identity? So curious…. This is a sequel to Say You’ll Remember Me.

What We Did to Survive by Megan Lally – Being the only boat leaving the marina as the dark clouds roll in sounds like a bad idea to start with. The boat is chartered by Emma’s new boyfriend, but is he an innocent victim of the weather alongside Emma, her best friend, Hannah, and her brother, Jackson, or is something more sinister going on? We will find out March 31. I also will not be adding this book to my official March TBR, due to the late-in-the-month publication date.

Book Club Picks

For my brother’s Moon Lit Bookclub selection for March, we will be reading The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen. Raised as a warrior to fulfill her father’s revenge against another kingdom, Lara is sent as a peace offering to be the rival king’s bride.

For my brother’s Welcome to the Apocalypse book club, we will be reading The Girl in Red by Christina Henry. A post-apocalyptic Little Red Riding Hood retelling.

Overdue Library Books

Now that I’ve finally gotten that email from the library, letting me know that they will no longer auto-renew my selections and I really, really need to finally return them… I will put them on my TBR so that I can actually read them and then get them back.

Deep End by Ali Hazelwood – Two elite athletes working through the stressors of college life, high level competitions, and past traumas. Do they have a no-strings agreement, or something more permanent?

One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune – This is the sequel to Every Summer After, where we are now following Charlie’s (Sam’s brother) story. The first book was very atmospheric and made me think back to my days at my cousins’ cabin on the lake in Michigan. I gave it 5 stars, so I have high expectations for this story. Alice once took a photo of three teens in a yellow speedboat, and that photo changed her life. Years later and now a photographer, Alice returns to the lake to help her Nan recover from an injury. Who else should return but one of the boys from the speedboat.

Random Selections

Sunk in Love by Heather McBreen – This was the February Romance Book Mail selection from Love & Other Books. Roslyn and Liam are headed for divorce after nine years, but before they can tell their family, they are asked to facilitate Roslyn’s grandparents’ vow renewal in Hawaii. Stuck on the cruise boat together, can they fake a healthy relationship long enough to actually repair what they have together?

The “Possibles” List

Only in Your Dreams by Ellie K. Wilde – I’m thinking about reading this one in March, solely because it has green clovers on the cover. Melody is newly dumped and now stuck on a camping trip with her brother’s best friend, Zac.

The Price of Honey by Liane Moriarty – This was the free short story offered through the Amazon First Reads program for being a Prime member. A tech billionaire’s widow and three ex-wives gather for his funeral and one final betrayal. Looks like this is Book 1 of the Deadly Ambition series, part of Amazon Original Stories.

Maybe It’s Fate by Heidi McLaughlin – This was my pick from the Amazon First Reads program. Antonia leaves her corporate life behind in order to raise her terminally ill best friend’s children. Will she fall for the present and supportive coach? The correct answer is yes. The only question is: Will this book make me cry?

The Names by Florence Knapp – This was a free selection from the 2025 Lolly Finalists. It explores the idea of your name determining your path in life and a young, abused wife deciding between three different names for her newborn son. In alternate timelines, we get to see what his life might be like for each name she considers.

How to Write a Love Story by Catherine Walsh – This my Book of the Month pick for March. The daughter of a famous fantasy novelist is tasked with completing the last book in her late father’s series. Faced with writer’s block and a crumbling Irish estate, it doesn’t help that the publisher sends an editor to her doorstep to protect their investment.

Final List

My final initial TBR for March consists of 9 books, and 5 bonus books:

• Throne of Secrets by Kerri Maniscalco
• Just Friends by Haley Pham
• Off-Limits Love in Shenandoah by Olivia McCarthy
• Toe to Toe by Falon Ballard
• The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen
• The Girl in Red by Christina Henry
• Deep End by Ali Hazelwood
• One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune
• Sunk in Love by Heather McBreen
  — Bonus —
• Only in Your Dreams by Ellie K. Wilde
• The Price of Honey by Liane Moriarty
• Maybe It’s Fate by Heidi McLaughlin
• The Names by Florence Knapp
• How to Write a Love Story by Catherine Walsh

I feel that — for me — TBR lists are always going to be a fluid thing, with me adding books and taking some off the list as the month goes on. Typical mood reader behavior. But also, I’m a planner girl and it makes me happy to have lists and goals, so…. Let’s make a list at the beginning of each month and review it at the end of the month to see what happened.

Carried Over from Last Month’s TBR

Could I have finished Six Crimson Cranes in January? Possibly. However, on the last day of the month, I finished the audiobook for Dating After the End of the World about 11:30 pm, and I was only 50% through Cranes. It was a battle I was going to lose, but I picked up my Kindle and read for the final hour of the month. I didn’t try to skim through it, though, because I am enjoying this story. It has a Brothers Grimm fairy tale vibe that reminds me of my childhood. I will finish this book up this month. It will be the first time that I’ve finished both of my brother’s book club selections in a while (even if technically I didn’t make the deadline).

I am very excited to read Catch Her If You Can because I’ve read the previous books in the Big Shots series and really liked them. Honestly, I would have started reading it already, but I wanted to do justice to my book club selections.

While I had placed all of the January new releases on the January TBR, I knew that some of them I actually wanted to read in February. For example, Chasing the Ring is about an NFL quarterback seeking a Super Bowl ring, so obviously I should read that the week (or day) before Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8, right?

The Milano Cortina Winter Olympics will be held from Friday, Feb. 6 to Sunday, Feb. 22, so I want to read Fated Skates in that timeframe, assuming that I can pull my attention away from 24/7 Olympics coverage to read.

One of my local indie booksellers, Love & Other Books, didn’t have Only on Gameday in stock when I was there for book club, so didn’t pick it up in time to be read for January, but this would be another good book to read leading up to the Super Bowl.

So, a couple of questions for you:

1. When I decide to read a book in a different month, do I officially take the book off my January TBR (when this will make my completion percentage look “better”), or do I leave it there as an indication of an unfulfilled plan?
2. I have some books on my TBR that I intended to buy and read, but ultimately did not. Should these be taken off the TBR until I have purchased them? Should I have a separate section for To Buy?

Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Books that I absolutely, definitely meant to read in January but did not for whatever reason (book club picks, I’m looking at you!), I will leave on the TBR in all of their incomplete glory.

I started Axe and Grind in January, but it was so confusing in the first few pages that I set it aside on my nightstand. I tried picking it up again, but didn’t get very far. Right now, I have it set to a Paused status on StoryGraph. I don’t think I’ve given it a fair shot yet, but I’m also not in the right mindset to want to struggle through a tough section.

Rings of Fate I just did not get to. I do think it sounds like a good story, but I’m not sure that I will be able to complete it in February.

New Releases

The next set of books added to my TBR are the books that will be releasing in February that I’m interested in.

Throne of Nightmares by Kerri Maniscalco – This book releases on Feb 10, however I have been buying the paperback versions and this is the hardcover release. So, I went out and bought Throne of Secrets, which is Book #2, and will have that on my TBR for February instead. But the Throne of Nightmares release reminded me to pick the series back up. I won’t add Nightmares to my TBR until I buy it.

Two Can Play by Ali Hazelwood – I tend to enjoy Ali’s books; there’s just something about the banter and the STEM settings of many of them that appeals to my nerdy side. This one is also giving Ready Player One vibes, so maybe a 5 star prediction for me?

You & Me and You & Me and You & Me by Josie Lloyd and Emlyn Rees – The married couple in this book find a time machine and get to rediscover how they fell in love. The dangerous temptation is to alter the past, which can threaten their future.

Half City by Kate Golden – A demon hunter falling for a demon? Trying to find her father’s murderer? Training up her skills in a school for special people like her? Tell me more….

Survivor: Forged by Fire by Jeff Probst – I have been binge watching seasons of Survivor lately and am excited for Season 50 to start on Wednesday, Feb. 25! They have a site with merch and I pre-ordered this book.

To Buy

From January’s new releases, I still need to purchase:

Only on Gameday by Kristen Callihan – Their mothers were best friends. And now, August needs a fake-fiancée to rehab his public image and Penelope needs someone who can help her pay the taxes on her grandparents’ house she inherited.

Love Goes Viral by Camille Stochitch, Alexander Berman, and Estelle Laure – Love is a pop star with a public image crisis and Austin is a small-town boy from her past that is struggling to save his family diner.

My Book of the Month selection for February is Stolen Midnights. It’s a YA Fantasy about a girl anticipating a special gift from the Fates on her 18th birthday, and a young thief hired to steal that gift. But what does it mean when the gift is a locket with the thief’s image inside? This is a new release for February 3rd, and is set to be the start of a series.

I still have to pick out my Amazon First Reads selection for February, as they haven’t updated the site from January’s selections.

Book Club Picks

Another set of books on my TBR are book club selections.

Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir – My brother has two book clubs that he runs on Fable. This is February’s selection for the Moon Lit Bookclub (horror, sci-fi, fantasy). To be honest, I had to read the blurb a few times to try and get a grasp on what this book is about. There are two women: Harrowhark, who is a necromancer trying to save her family legacy, and Gideon, who is a reanimated corpse trying to regain her freedom. They were rivals in the past, but now they need each other to achieve their goals.

Rot and Ruin by Jonathan Maberry – This is the February selection for my brother’s other book club on Fable: Welcome to the Apocalypse, which titularly focuses on apocalypse-related reads. Zombies are everywhere and Benny turned 15 and needs a job if he doesn’t want his food rations to be cut. What happens when your zombie hunter is a teen who thinks the job is boring?

Random Selections

At the beginning of the month, these are likely going to be books that I impulse bought the month before. But, occasionally, I’m sure I’ll decide to throw some backlist books in here that I want to tackle, or that fit the season.

Throne of Secrets by Kerri Maniscalco – This series follows Princes of Sin, which correspond to the seven deadly sins. Secrets follows Gluttony’s story. It makes me happy that I was able to buy the sprayed edges, paperback edition that matches my copy of Throne of the Fallen.

Nuclear War by Annie Jacobsen – I had nominated this book for my brother’s book club this month, but it was not selected. However, it still sounds intriguing and the salesman at Barnes & Noble said he really enjoyed it, so I’m excited to read it this month.

The “Possibles” List

These are books that I acquired in January, but haven’t read yet. I do intend to read all of the books that I buy, but I’m not sure if I want to officially place these books on my February TBR, or slot them in somewhere else. I’ll likely add these to the TBR that I track in StoryGraph as “Bonus” books.

In His Wake by Chad Zunker – This was an Amazon First Reads selection for January. A presidential candidate has been assassinated and his murdered father might not only have been involved, but may also be alive?!

The People’s Library by Veronica G. Henry – This was another Amazon First Reads selection. They gave us 2 selections for January. The library is under attack! But this isn’t just any library, it’s a collection of human consciousness. It sounds like a good sci-fi thriller, but also promises a contemplation of the ethics of this new technology as well.

Only in Your Dreams by Ellie K. Wilde – This was an impulse purchase from Love & Other Books while I was there for book club. Tropes: brother’s best friend, sports romance, second chance, small town, forced proximity — I may check of all of the romance bingo boxes with one book!

Detour by Jeff Rake and Rob Hart – I was originally interested in this book as something that both Donald and I would want to read. It’s marketed as “if The Martian and The Twilight Zone had a baby,” and I love the Martian. We both have enjoyed space dramas like For All Mankind on streaming as well, so I picked it up during a recent Barnes & Noble date.

Final List

My final initial TBR for February consists of 13 books and 6 bonus books:

• Six Crimson Cranes by Elizabeth Lim
• Catch Her If You Can by Tessa Bailey

I feel pretty good about this list, and 13 books will keep me on pace to complete my goal of reading 120 books this year (plus a buffer). Wish me luck! And let me know what’s on your TBR!
