Books I've Added to My TBR and Forgotten Why

Happy Top Ten Tuesday over at That Artsy Reader Girl!

I'm constantly adding to my TBR, but if I take a moment to reread the summary, I usually remember why I've added a particular book, whether it's the latest YA fantasy, corresponding to my interests in food history, or lately, joining the national work on anti-racism. So, here, I'm listing some books that have been on my TBR a while and I don't immediately know why from the titles. Please let me know if you've read any of these and would recommend them!

Same. I'm always adding books to my TBR lists on Goodreads. Just going by the title or book cover, I might not remember why I added it, but if I read the summary, I can usually spot favorite tropes or a familiar author, etc.

I haven't read any of these, although I have an ARC of GIVEN TO THE SEA around here somewhere that I never got around to reading.

Happy TTT!
