Even though the amount of books on my want to read shelf stayed the same as last time, I did have a 100% removal percentage last week. So will I be able to do the same 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: 359 (my last post ended at 359. So that’s the same amount as at the end of my last post.)

The two books I kept are books I own physically and still really want to read soon. Other than that are some books that I do want to read someday, but I have no clue if/when I will get to them. Most of these were added to my want to read shelf almost six years ago.
Removal Percentage: 80%
Current “to-read” shelf: 351
I do really feel like I’ll be able to get my want to read shelf under 300 books sooner than expected. Some good progress was made again this week! Have you read any of these? Should I try and grab any of them soon? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
