Hello bookworms and welcome to my latest instalment of Down the TBR hole!
Down the TBR Hole is a weekly book meme created by the wonderful Lia @ Lost in a Story that attempts to organize our ridiculously long Goodreads TBR list by choosing either to keep or eliminate the books we’ve saved on there. Here’s how it works:
- Go to your goodreads to-read shelf.
- Order on ascending date added.
- Take the first 5 (or 10 (or even more!) if you’re feeling adventurous) books. Of course, if you do this weekly, you start where you left off the last time.
- Read the synopses of the books
- Decide: keep it or should it go
It’s time for the next 20 books to go through the cull! It’s an odd mix of books this week. I was actually tempted to toss To Kill a Mockingbird and Pride and Prejudice because realistically I really don’t know if/when I will read them but as they are “classics” I’ve left them alone!
Any purchases made via my Amazon affiliate links will result in me being paid a small commission. This support helps me to pay for my blog running costs and is always appreciated but never expected. You can view my Amazon Influencer page **HERE** to browse all the books that I recommend.
Keeping 15, tossing 5! Not the best week but another week closer to getting things back under control! ♥
Have you read any of these books? What books have been on your TBR for the longest? Leave a comment below and let’s discuss!
Good Omens is such an amazing book! I hope you enjoy it when you get round to reading it!
I have Magyk on my actual tbr because I once bougth the whole series – that’s idk eight/nine books?- for like €5,- and it sounded like a fun story. I haven’t read it yet.
Have you read The Archived? I read it and reread it but somehow I haven’t read the Unbound yet. What do you think of that series?
It does look like fun but I just don’t feel like ill ever get around to it haha! I hope you like it if you read it! I did read The Archived and really enjoyed it and I can’t believe I’ve not read The Unbound yet! I really need to!
Even five books make a good purge, congratulations! Getting rid of TBR books is pretty hard.
It is so hard! I still seem to add more than I take off, it’s a never ending battle really lol!
I enjoyed several on your list, but they were all ones that you kept. Hope you get to enjoy all of the keepers at some point!
Thank you! I hope ill get around to them eventually lol!
Rhapsodic is soo good! So is Ember and Sorcery of Thorns! Getting rid of 5 is great though!
I never see anyone talking about Rhapsodic but it does sound so good so really hoping ill get to that soon!
I had a few bloggers recommend it and I’m glad they did! I hope you enjoy it when you get to it! 🙂
I love the books you’re keeping on your TBR! From the pile you’re ditching, I’m hoping to read MAGYK at some point.
I really enjoyed the Mercy Thompson series!
I’ve had them on my list now for a really long time! They look so good. Hopefully ill like them when I do get around to reading them.
