We made it to Tuesday, Dear Readers! How is your January reading going? Today’s TOP TEN TUESDAY topic is:

January 19: Books I Meant to Read In 2020 but Didn’t Get To.

There are always a few books that I’m desperate to read and then sadly they get pushed aside. Here are the Top Ten 2020 Releases that I didn’t quite get to last year. Have you read any of these?
