TEN OF THE RANDOM BOOKS ON MY BOOKSHELF
It’s another week which means there is another weekly book list up on the rotation. This one is more about random things and perhaps the chance to feature some books I don’t quite as often. Although knowing my luck I will, which will then maybe make the “random” part of this list less than, well, random. However, we press on and hope to have some fun with a list of random books on my shelf.

Linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl November 4: The First 10 Books I Randomly Grabbed from My Shelf (Stand in front of your book collection, close your eyes, point to a title, and write it down. If you have shelves, point to your physical books. If you have a digital library, use a random number generator and write down the title of the book that corresponds with the number you generated. You get bonus points if you tell us whether or not you’ve read the book, and what you thought of it if you did!)

Berlin Letters looks interesting.
Here’s a link to my TTT post

I hope it is! I loved prior novels by Katherine Reay so I’m hopeful her later releases will also be new favorites. :)
While I have Jo & Laurie on my physical TBR, I’m not sure I want to read it any longer. I may need to review the synopsis again and reconsider it.

I have had that experience too, Pam. I think this is why it’s “easy” for me to go through my books once a year or so and unhaul a bunch. I feel like if I’m not touching certain books or really “care” about them anymore (and I’m not taking photos of books for social media now) then I would rather someone else maybe find and enjoy the book. :)
These are all new to me! But I’d love to read Jo & Laurie. I love Little Women!
I hope you have a wonderful week!

Let me know what you think of Jo and Laurie if you read it! :)
I have not read any of these, but I’d pick Jo & Laurie if it’s, indeed, about the characters from Little Women.
Thank you for stopping by earlier.
It is indeed about those characters. :)
Accidental Bride sounds really cute.
Thank you for visiting my post!
It does, right? I used to read so many by Denise and they were always cute. I think even Hallmark adapted a couple.
I’ve only heard of one of these titles but Book Boyfriend sounds cute! 😊
Doesn’t it? Definitely one I need to consider reading soon. :)
These sound interesting.
Have a great week!

You too, Emily! Thanks for visiting.
Dear Adam looks good. Nice picks. Here is my TTT.https://dmhoisington.wordpress.com/2025/11/04/top-ten-tuesday-8/comment-page-1/#comment-985
I’ve had that one for too long… but it does look cute!
These are all new to me, but Jo and Laurie does sound like a nice read! :)
It was a sweet read. It was probably one of those “right time, right reads” books but I did really like it. :)
Wow! I’ve not heard of any of these before but what a great selection :)
Here’s my TTT – https://justreadjessie.blog/2025/11/04/top-ten-tuesday-the-first-10-books-i-randomly-grabbed-from-my-shelves/
Part of the fun of visiting these all is the variety! :) Thanks for visiting Jessie.
I enjoy reading historical books, so several of these look interesting! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you
YAY! Hope you found some new ones to possibly enjoy. :)
I don’t think I’m familiar with any of these. Would be curious about Jo & Laurie.
Let me know what you think of Jo and Laurie! :)
The Brides of Montclair series by Jane Peart is soooo good! I loved how through the ages of history each book tells the story of a new bride coming to the Montclair plantation. I have the whole series. These books will always be a cherished set on my bookshelves.
I read those all WAY back in the day. I think my aunt gave me some year ago and that’s how I got started. I don’t remember specifics but do know I did enjoy them. :)
I have a copy of JO & LAURIE on my shelf, but I still haven’t read it. One of these days…
Happy TTT!

I really did enjoy Jo and Laurie, but it may have been one of those right-time-right-place kind of reads. Either way, I plan to let my happy and fond memories of it stand. :)
Nice list! I did enjoy The Accidental Bride by Denise Hunter. Have a great week!
I’m not sure I ever read that one but I did read a TON by Denise back in the day. :)
Great list! I haven’t heard of most of these books, but the covers are so pretty, and it is really interesting to see what books other people came up with for their random TBR list. I also like how you included a mix of book genres.
I thought this topic was (is) so fun because it inspires (hopefully) more variety. :) I may have to try this topic again next time I’m not really into the actual topic. ;)
