Down the TBR Hole #174

I’ve been doing these Down the TBR Hole posts a few weeks in a row, so not much has changed on my want to read shelf since my post last 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: 378 (my last post ended at 378. So that’s the same as at the end of my last post.)

The only two books that I kept this week are books that I physically have on my bookshelves. There are also a few that are parts of series I haven’t even read the first book of. Also, there are some that I definitely still see myself reading, but I just don’t have access to at this moment.

Removal Percentage: 80%
Current “to-read” shelf: 370

So that’s more progress made on my want to read shelf this week! I feel like this time around I’m more critical in what I’m keeping on my want to read shelf. There’s a big chance I’ll still pick up a few of these. Have you read any of these? What book should I pick up first? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
