Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly linkup of book bloggers hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl! This week, we’re talking about the books we’ll be reading this spring! An unusually high amount of non-fiction for me up this spring, ranging from a history of the early years of Nazi rule to an oral recounting of the making of one of my favorite movies. I’ll also finally be reading the dragon book!
Woodworking: I’ve been following Emily St. James since she was writing about TV at The Onion AV Club and I am super excited to read her debut novel!
The Emperor: African history is a serious gap in my knowledge base so I’m looking forward to this recounting of the final years of Haile Selassie’s rule as emperor of Ethiopia.
The Scientist in the Crib: I don’t usually read a lot of parenting books, but watching C learn and grow has made me really curious about what we know about early learning!
Prophet Song: This is my book club’s selection for April, and though I likely won’t be able to go because of session I do like to read along.
Fourth Wing: Everyone but me has read the dragon book so it’s time.
The Coming of the Third Reich: I’ve long had this read planned but it will be especially…interesting to read right now, I think.
Things Left Unsaid: I love coming-of-age stories and this one about two young people who used to be friends coming back together in London feels very up my alley.
Ada Blackjack: This is a true story, about an Eskimo woman who accompanied several men into the Arctic as a guide but was the only survivor of their journey and it sounds fascinating.
As If: I love Clueless so much, of course I have to read a book all about it getting made.
The Accursed: I read Blonde in high school but haven’t tried Joyce Carol Oates since and this gothic novel seems like it could be fun!
Like…I would so read the Clueless book!
Totally!
I hope you enjoy reading all of these in the coming months.

The Emperor sounds really good.
Interesting list! I hope you enjoy all these.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

The Scientist in the Crib sounds interesting, maybe it’s because I’ve studied psychology, and early learning is an interest of mine. Woodworking looks amazing too! I hope you’ll love all these books when you read them 🙂

I must read that Clueless book!! I loved the movie too and have so many feelings of nostalgia for it. I hope you enjoy Fourth Wing, I was disappointed with the sequel but the first book was good!
