I decided to once again have a yearly TBR for 2023, after having it be successful to varying degrees over the past few years (see: 2020, 2021, & 2022 TBRs). But I think I figured out a process that will work for me actually picking up – and enjoying – these books. So here are 17 books I want to read in 2023.
I’m changing up my anticipated releases slightly, instead of posting monthly, I’m going to share the books I’m most excited about for the next four months. So expect this post 3 times a year. And that gives me time to really look at what books are coming out later in the year, instead of front-loading these posts and forgetting everything after August.

I’m noramlly not a big TBR person, because I’m usually a mood reader and the self-imposed pressure of reading a certain book in a timeframe that I might not actually want to read stresses me out. Which I why last year I started (and really enjoyed) doing a yearlong TBR of some books that have been on my shelves for way too long.
Last year I talked about how I wanted to be more consistent with my recommendation posts and started this series recommending books based on the colors in the covers (so we can get a fun genre mix) but I failed spectacularly . Now over a year and a half later, I’m finally doing a part II, with more to come in the future – in a more timely manner. Continue reading

This week’s topic is highlighting the author’s we’ve read the most books from. Now I have quite a few authors I’ve read multiple books from, but the ones I’ve read the most from are all over 5 books – and up to 21! I thought it’d be fun to share my favorite and least favorite books from each author (favorites on the right vs least favorite on the left), so check them out below! Continue reading
