We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s topic is Books On My Winter 2025-2026 to-Read List. As you might know, I don’t usually set TBR’s for myself, but I do like to think about the books I might want to read. So that is what this list will be! Let’s take a look.

1. Can You Solve the Murder – Antony Johnston

I would love to dive into this one during my Christmas break. This seems like a one sitting type of read! Will I be able to figure out who did it? I’m so excited to dive into this one, hopefully it’s as fun as it seems.

2. Apprentice to the Villain – Hannah Nicole Maehrer

I feel like this might be one that will end up on a lot of TBR lists before I finally read it. After loving book 1, I am sure I will love this sequel. But somehow I just haven’t picked it up yet. It sits on my nightstand, so I’m pretty close to picking it up ;).

3. Legends & Lattes – Travis Baldree

This one has been on a list before as well. I think a cozy fantasy is the perfect read for the winter. When I’m on my couch, with a nice blanket, some lit candles and a good cup of tea. I can already see it!

4. The Bone Shard Daughter – Andrea Stewart

This book has been on my TBR for way too long now. I love the sound of this story and I’m so sure I will be loving this one. It has a pretty good rating and reviewers I trust have enjoyed the book a lot.

5. Bloodwitch – Susan Dennard

Another book that has been on a lot of TBR lists. And one I really want to read! I loved the first books and I have high hopes for this third book. By now both book 4 and 5 are released, so I could easily binge this series.

6. Mr & Mrs Dixon Hide a Body – Jennifer Holdich

I’m so excited to dive into this eARC! After loving Jennifer Holdich’s debut novel, I was immediately looking forward to this next release. A couple who hates each other accidentally kill someone and now try to blame each other. I hope our MC is as delusional as the MC in Jennifer’s first book!

7. The Raven Scholar – Antonia Hodgson

Everyone was raving about this book when it was first released. I love a fantasy with a competition, so I’m sure I will eat this one up. And it would be nice to finish another eARC of this list.

8. Our Infinite Fates – Laura Steven

I recently started reading this one, I really hope to finish it this winter. So far I’m enjoying it a lot, especially the flashbacks to earlier lives. I have no idea what is going on yet, and I’m really curious what happened to cause this situation.

9. Arcana Academy – Elise Kova

Elise Kova is such a beloved author, that alone makes me excited for her newest release. Couple that with the fact that this is a fantasy set at an academy and magic that has to do with tarot cards, sign me up!

10. SpyxFamily vol 6&7 – Tatsuya Endo

I am really enjoying the SpyxFamily manga and I’m excited to read these next 2 volumes. It’s nice to know I have a couple of manga still on my TBR, so I can dive in whenever I crave one. They’re usually really fast reads and most of them are one sitting reads for me.

These are the books I hope to read this winter! Have you read any of them? Do you think I will enjoy these? And which do you think I will actually read? Let me know down below!
