Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl. Every Tuesday, you pick ten books on that weekโs topic. This week, we get to spotlight books we plan to read in Spring 2021. Here are my picks — but not choosing by publication date!

Interesting choices. I’ve heard of PG of course but the others are new to me.
I’ve heard good things about The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle.

Evelyn Hardcastle has been banging around on my shelves for an age… that might be one of those books that is always trb and never actually read!
These are the books on my Spring TBR list!
Oh dear, I hope that’s not the case! I’ve read such amazing reviews for this book…
Of these, I’ve only read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, but it was an enjoyable read. Happy reading, whatever you decide to pick up!

Evelyn (dying multiple times!) is certainly a popular choice. ๐
The Flavia Albia Mystery Series sounds pretty good. I must check it out!
Since you like Graeco-Roman lit, I think you’ll like the series. ๐
Evelyn Hardcastle is on my TBR generally, though not specifically my Spring one. Looking forward to reading it though, it sounds great.

Do you have different TBRs for each season/ different time periods? Hmm, something to consider. Mine may be called “spring TBR”, but really, it’s for the whole of 2021. ๐
I’ve heard so many good things about The Wolf of Oren-Yaro. I hope you enjoy all these books!
Yes, and that book cover is so awesome too!
Is that a Betsy-Tacy book? I haven’t read those since elementary school, I think! Sounds like they’re all grown up in this one though. I should do a re-read and continue the series.
I haven’t read this particular Lindsey Davis book but I read a few in her Marcus Didius Falco series and enjoyed them. I would read more but I never find a library that has them.
I hope you enjoy these!
Yeah, apparently the Betsy-Tacy series goes on for 8 books. I haven’t read any of them, but someone suggested I start with Book 5 (where they have grown up), so here they are on my list.
Glad to know the Marcus Didius Falco series were good — this book is about his foster daughter, who it turns out is also a investigator/ spy whatever. Hope it turns out well!
I remember hearing good things about Hardcastle, so yeah that definitely sounds good. I’ve only read the first Briggs book in that series but I was going to read more of ’em. Oh wait I see on second look that the Alpha and Omega books, so not technically the Mercy series but related- if I remember? anyway… yeah :):):)
Yes, the Mercy Thompson series by Briggs is also in the same world as the Alpha & Omega series. And I just finished the 6th book in the series, and it was awesome! Seems to have solved my reading slump for a bit ๐
I read and enjoyed the Wolf of Oren Yaro and I have a copy of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle waiting patiently to be read ๐

I think we chatted about Oren Yaro in the SPFBO context, definitely want to read that!
I have read and loved that Wodehouse, many years ago. I definitely need to read more. I stopped when I tried to listen to them, but the British accent was a problem for me – even though this is the English I learned as a French student! But after 20 years in the US, my ears have changed!
I will wait to see what you think about the book by Turton
Interesting. I find I have very little patience for audiobooks these days unless I listen at 1.25x speed. And I’ve definitely not tried a Wodehouse audiobook before — I think I need to check this out ๐ค
The Robinson Davis book is one of my all time favourites, in fact I really should reread the whole Cornish trilogy sometime soon. The seven deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is also good, very twisty and mind melting but good.
Wow, that is very high praise indeed for Evelyn Hardcastle. Not a single person so far has recommended against it. Gotta try that next!
Oh! The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is truly insufferable! ๐
I can’t figure out what’s the “1/2” for, must find out soon!
I haven’t read any of these but you’ve got some interesting titles. I think I would probably pick the 7 1/2 book just because I’ve heard a lot of praise for that one. Hope you’ll enjoy them all!
Yeah, same here. I have reached 10% and no one has really died yet, haha.
