We’re starting this Down the TBR Hole post at the same place we ended two weeks ago! I didn’t take anything off of my want to read shelf, but nothing has been added either!
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: 509 (my last post ended at 509. So that’s the same as at the end of the last post.)

I’m actually surprised how many books I kept this week. To be fair, I own all of them that I kept except for one. So I just really need to work on my backlist, haha. A couple I removed, I do want to read, but I don’t own them. So I have no clue when I’ll get the chance.
Removal Percentage: 30%
Current “to-read” shelf: 506
We’re making progress! Slowly, but there is progress. This week’s post didn’t have many books removed. Mostly because I own quite a few of them. Have you read any of these? Is there a book I need to pick up first? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
