On My Hold List

 


I just went a little crazy and added a bunch of books to my library hold list. Some of them are for work, but most of them are for fun

At the moment, I have 30 books on my hold list.

I love her Torte Bakery series and this looks charming!

This one is for work, but it looks adorable!

I found this via social media and it looks really good!

Love Jenn's books and this is book 2 in a series

Julie Olivia wrote one of my favorite reads last year - looking forward to her new book

Cozy mystery - hope this is the start of a new series 

Have you read any of these? Do they look interesting to you?

What's On My Hold List

 


It's been so long since I've done one of these posts that I actually forgot all about it.

I'm a VERY HEAVY library user. And I place a lot of books on hold. There is a limit at our system - it's 50 items on hold. I have hit that a few times.

Currently, I have 18 books on hold, which is probably a little below average.

I want to try this out 

Huge Swiftie, so of course I love reading books about her

This YA romance looks super cute!

Love Aleandra Bracken's YA books, excited about her adult romantasy

I love reading picture book biographies - I always learn something

Have you read any of these? Do they look interesting to you?

On My Hold List (110)

My Librarian friend Jess from I Read to Relax came up with a great idea.  It's to highlight the books on hold at the library. I usually have 20-40 items checked out at the library and another 20 items on hold. 


Middle Grade Reads:

To Catch a Cheat (The Great Greene Heist, #2)
To Catch a Cheat: Loved the Great Greene Heist - so looking forward to another adventure

Neverseen (Keeper of the Lost Cities, #4)
Neverseen: Love this series and can't wait to see what happens next!

Eden's Wish (Eden of the Lamp, #1)
Eden's Wish: First in a series about a genie who wishes for freedom.

Pilfer Academy: A School So Bad It's Criminal
Pilfer Academy: Boarding School for Thieves!

Right now, the library system is going through a change and you can not place items on hold for the next week. 

I'm not going to lie - it's rough for me. I place a hold at least three times a week. I like to place the hold when I hear about the book or when I know it's in the catalog. That way I don't forget to place a hold. I will be very happy next Monday when I can start adding books to my list.

Sequels: I read a LOT of series books.

All Dressed in White: I really enjoyed the first book and I'm eager to read this one. I've been a fan of MHC since the 7th grade. This one involves a missing bride.

See How They Run: I loved the first book and can't wait for more about Grace and her friends.

NYPD Red 4: The last one wasn't my favorite, but this series has me hooked

On My Hold List (108)



My Librarian friend Jess from I Read to Relax came up with a great idea.  It's to highlight the books on hold at the library. I usually have 20-40 items checked out at the library and another 20 items on hold. 

Since coming back from BEA, I've decided that I need to change my reading habits. I need to start reading the ARCs and worry less about the library books for right now, except of course for the hot books coming out that I need immediately. It's not really working...but I am trying.

Here are a few Christmas books I'm looking forward to reading when they come in at the library.

Marry Me at Christmas (Fool's Gold, #19)
Marry Me at Christmas by Susan Mallery
I love Fool's Gold. I'm always happy to read more of these books, especially set at Christmas.

Christmas on Candy Cane Lane (Life in Icicle Falls, #8)
Christmas on Candy Cane Lane by Sheila Roberts 
Three women have very different ideas of Christmas but this year, will be different in Icicle falls. I adore this series!

A Winter Wedding (Whiskey Creek, #9)
Winter Wedding by Brenda Novak
This book just came out yesterday - I love this series and I'm happy to see Kyle finding love.

And a picture book:
How to Catch Santa
How to Catch Santa by Jean Reagan
What happens if you catch Santa?
