For the first time in a while we’re starting a Down the TBR Hole post with one book less on my want to read shelf than my last post!
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: 431 (my last post ended at 432. So that’s one book less than at the end of my last post.)

Except for the two books I kept, all of them are books I don’t own. Some of them were suggested to me by friends. Others I just saw online or don’t even remember anymore, haha. Maybe I’ll revisit some of the one day.

Another post done! I should be under 400 books on my want to read shelf soon. It’ll be a shelf of books I actually plan on reading. Have you read any of these? Should I have kept any of these? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
