Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Plan To Read This Fall 2024

 



This week's Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl is books on your to be read pile this fall. I chose to title it "books I plan to read this fall." Call me obsessive but the work "plan" lets me off the hook if I don't get to them! And ten books by December 21st is a tall order for me right now. But here is what I'd read if I had all day to do it! No links as I didn't have time but at least I got a list out. Happy Fall ya'll :) 

1. The Virgin in the Ice by Ellis Peters- I am working my way through the Cadfael Chronicles over the years and this is the next in line. I am excited to to catch up and see what is going on with the monks of Shrewsbury.

2. The Agincourt King by Mercedes Rochelle- This is a new to me author I just discovered and I'm enjoying her topics. This one is of course about Henry V.

3. The Mirror Crack'd From Side to Side by Agatha Christie- This is the October Read Christie choice. I am waiting for the Libby copy to arrive!

4. Valley of the Kings by Cecilia Holland- This one is started already and I am loving it. It is the story of Howard Carter's discovery of King Tut's tomb in 1922. Holland is an author I've been meaning to read for a long time now. So far I'm loving her style of writing.

5. The Castle Abductions by David Field- This is the first book in his Tudor era mystery series. I've reviewed several of his historical fiction books on my blog. He is always informative and entertaining.

6. Henry V by Dan Jones- This seems to be very popular now even though it has yet to be released in the U.S. It will be out October 1st.  I love Jones' narrative style and have read many of his books. Looking forward to this one.

7. Death Down the Aisle by Verity Bright- I read these each season they are set in. This is one for fall. My favorite cozy mystery series.

8. Betrayal at Ravenswick by Kelly Oliver - I read and reviewed this author's mystery Covert in Cairo recently and enjoyed it. Having jumped into the series without knowing the beginning backstory made me want to go back and get the very first book with these characters in it. I am trying not to do this again but it's hard when I like a certain setting and the covers suck me in too.

9. We Three Queens by Rhys Bowen- I received this book as an ARC from Net Galley. I plan to read and review it soon as it is being published in November. 

10. A Christmas Vanishing by Anne Perry- This is the last Perry Christmas novel. I am planning to read and review it early in November. It will be sad to see them end as she passed away recently. I just love these books each year at the holidays.
