It’s only been a little over a week since I did my last Down the TBR Hole post, so nothing has changed since then. Let’s see what I’m able to remove from my want to read shelf 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: 543 (my last post ended at 543. So that’s no change since the end of the last post.)

This week I was able to remove most of the books from my want to read shelf. The three I kept are either on my shelves physically or is a sequel to something I’ve already read. It’s not that the other books don’t interest me anymore, but I just don’t have them. That being said, I just don’t see myself picking them up anytime soon.
Removal Percentage: 70%
Current “to-read” shelf: 536
That’s this week’s Down the TBR Hole post. It was rather successful if I do say so myself! Have you read any of these? Should I still try and pick up any of the books I removed this week. Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
