The TBR Tag

Plus I love looking at my TBR and seeing all the books I want to read and have not read. Sometimes a book will pop out at me. So let’s get to this! Continue reading “The TBR Tag”

Down the TBR Hole #2

Hey guys! It’s time for another Down the TBR Hole which was created by Lia @Lost In A Story! I really enjoyed doing last week’s clean. I’m hoping this week’s will be as successful. It’s hard for me to get rid of these first 100 books because these are all books I own but some of them I’ve had for years now and probably need to let go of. Here is how it works:

  • Go to your goodreads to-read shelf.
  • Order on ascending date added.
  • Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books
  • Read the synopses of the books
  • Decide: keep it or should it go?

The fact that I  will be repeating this process every week means that I have to keep track of where I ended and where I’m going to continue. E.g. in week one I do book 1 – 5, in week two book 6 – 10, and so on, until I’ve filtered out my entire TBR.


The Books:

Guardians of the GalaxyGuardians of The Galaxy, Volume 1: Cosmic Avengers By Brian Michael Bendis

This is a comic so this is something I could finish within a couple of hours.

Judgement: Keep

 

 

 

The Cuckoo's CallingThe Cuckoo’s Calling By Robert Galbriath

This is another book that I have the first and second book. I feel because of that I don’t want to get rid of it. So I’ll give this a chance.

This week I made so more progress. I got rid of 3 books which in total now has brought to have removed 7 books in total which I have to say is overall pretty good. If I can remove a couple from my TBR list every week then that’s fine with me. I do feel it’s been a bit tough picking which ones to get rid of. I also feel like I have to get rid of something every week just because but I know I don’t have to. It is nice seeing my list slowly shrink. Already can’t wait to see what books next week tackles!
