I think this is going to be the Down the TBR Hole post where we get under 400 books on my want to read shelf. This has been a long time coming!
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: 400 (my last post ended at 400. So that’s the same as at the end of my last post.)

This week is filled with a combination of books I own, still want to read, have a different edition of, or just don’t even remember. I definitely think we’re making good progress!

I finally have less than 400 books on my want to read shelf! This is something I’ve really been working at. Only keeping books on this shelf that I still really want to read/know I’ll end up reading. What do you think of my decisions? Should I pick up any of these soon? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
