In the Middle Ages Tournaments were the equivalent of Medieval football, with the 'star players' gaining wealth and prestige. Here is the history of the Tournament.

Give me a list and I go a little crazy…. 🤪

These are the books from the ToB longlist that I want to read and can hold of. I bought 8 😳 and the rest are through various library systems, digital or physical.

I also really want to read Colored Television but it‘s not cheap here, plus I‘ve put in requests on NetGalley for Model Home and Lazarus Man.

Send help….. 🤓🤪😳

Leniverse Ooh, I haven't looked at that list yet. Not sure I should 😅 1h
Leniverse Ok, I looked. 🙈 Several were already on my radar, but I've added three that I hadn't heard of before to my tbr. The Book Censor's Library, The Invisible Hotel, and Lesser Ruins. In total I have read 11, have 5 more, and would like to read another 8-16 😅 48m
sarahbarnes So many of these are on my want to read list, too! I just threw together a quick list on my phone…20 books. 😆 I‘ll see which ones I can get from the library and go from there! now
BarbaraBB I think I have my Christmas gift for you, if you want it! now
BarbaraBB And you are incredible! All those books! Love it! One day you‘ll be a longlist completist 🙌🏽 now

This is going to have to be two posts…. Too many books to fit on one picture. 😬

These are the books on the ToB list that I already own and want to read.

Next, the rather extensive list of the other books from the longlist that I want to read.

Bookwormjillk I love the cover of Wolf At The Table 2h

Taking my cue from @BarbaraBB these are the ToB longlisted books that I‘ve read, in some kind of order of favourites first.

I also bailed on Glorious Exploits and hibernated Intermezzo as it wasn‘t working on audio. I‘m not going to buy it and I‘m currently on a VERY long waiting list at the library so not sure when I‘ll get to finish it.

Next I‘ll post the books that I want to read…

Sorry if I‘ve forgotten to tag anyone!

BkClubCare I am using #ToB2025_LongList but as I type that I wonder if I have the right year… ugh. Will fix if not right? (Maybe just #ToB_LongList or even w/o the hard to find underscore space 🙄 #ToBLongList ?) Tagging is always a challenge 🏷️ 1h
squirrelbrain @BkClubCare - they definitely call it 2025 so you‘re OK there! But #ToBlonglist is just fine I think - the shorter the better! 48m
squirrelbrain @sarahbarnes - forgot to tag you - sorry! 😔 47m

sarahbarnes Thank you! I‘m interested in a few on your finished list that I‘m in line at the library for, too. 😊 42m
Megabooks Man, I looked yesterday, and it wasn‘t there! I‘ll have to look through it today. Great graphic, Helen! 34m
Megabooks Can you drop the link here? I can‘t find it. now
BkClubCare @squirrelbrain - yep, adding to my posts… 😊 now
Megabooks @BkClubCare Thank you! I eventually got on my laptop and found it. now

These are the ones that are on the #ToB25 longlist that I‘ve read. Some are this year‘s favorites. In my next post I‘ll share the ones I have on my shelves and that are now calling out to me to read them before the shortlist will be announced

Chelsea.Poole I‘m interested in several here that I have yet to read. Especially Safekeep, Book Censor and 16h

BarbaraBB @Chelsea.Poole All three are good! (edited) 8h
