Down the TBR Hole #147

So nothing has changed since my last post, but let’s see if we can make some progress this week!

Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story. This meme is now being hosted by Jody from I’m Into Books. It looked like a fun and productive way to finally make a dent in that Goodreads TBR. I went through my want-to-read shelf a little while ago but I think I was still to kind on a lot of books. Let’s see what I’ll make of it this time around. I decided to go with 10 books at a time so lets get started!

It works like this:

  • Go to your goodreads to-read shelf.
  • Order on ascending date added.
  • Take the first 5 (or 10 or 15 or 20, if you’re feeling adventurous) books
  • Read the synopses of the books
  • Decide: keep it or should it go?
  • Keep track of where you left off so you can pick up there next week!

Current “to-read” shelf: 566 (my last post ended at 566. So that’s no change since the end of the last post.)

This week was a good week. I removed half of the books on this list. Once again I have a mix of books I don’t remember, don’t think I’ll read anymore, and a few books on my shelves or a sequel I need to read.

Removal Percentage: 50%
Current “to-read” shelf: 561

We’re getting pretty close to the 150th Down the TBR Hole post. I’ve been making good progress. I wonder if I’ll get under 400 books before the end of the year. Have you read any of these? Should I have kept any of these? Or what book should I start with first?
