For those of you that don’t know what this meme is, check out Down The TBR Hole #1.
Since Jan 31st I have added 30 books to my TBR, bringing the total to 152. That is a bit ridiculous, and I am never going to read all those books.
I am going to attempt to do a big haul clean out and see how many I can remove. So without further ado and no explanation here are the ones I removed:
Honestly that was easier than I thought. I was brutal. I thought to myself “would I pay money to read this right now” and if the answer was even a little iffy then the book got axed. If there was anything in the synopsis that even slightly made me question if I would like it, it got the thrown out.
Ok I may talk some big game but I actually only got rid of 49 books. Better than the 15 total I did in my first two posts! Its a great start but I still have 103 left on my list.
Is your TBR out of control? Have you read any of the ones I got rid of? Do you actually read books from your TBR?
To marry a Scottish Laird?! Oh my!😂😱😂
You dumped Traitor’s Blade!😱 The Greatcoats series is absolutely fantastic.

Your secret is safe, we all have our guilty pleasures though writing pleasure for a title in that genre is rather scary.😂😱 Pretty sure I have included that Laird book in one of my fun book covers posts cos, ya know, sniggers.😂

Oh no! The Cuckoo’s Calling. That series is sooooo good! I highly recommend adding it back, try the audiobook. The reader is phenomenal.

Urg that one was difficult! I don’t usually like or read crime or mystery books but it was written by J.K. Rowling! I don’t know what to do! Maybe I will add it back in 🙃

I add books to my TBR- but I always have enough just from the library that it is accident if I read a TBR book.

I think my to-read list has about 400 books on it now. And I’ve been trying to delete some selections, but I keep adding more titles…

Wow thats a lot! I was having the same issue I could get rid of three or four but I would add five more so it wasn’t working! That is why I decided to do a big clear out!

At one point, I reorganized my bookshelves to have all the books I have read together and all the unread together, and I was ashamed at how many unread books I owned. And naturally I did this after purchasing 4 more books.

Oh man, I couldn’t imagine going through my physical books, I probably have read a fourth of the ones I own, if that. But I have acquired all of my moms and sisters old books which they were just going to donate to goodwill. I am working on creating a “library” so I haven’t worried about reading all the books I own!
