Down the TBR Hole #180

Nothing has changed on my want to read shelf since my last the Down the TBR Hole. I’ve said it before and I still think this, as long as I’m not adding any to this shelf, I’m happy!

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: 326 (my last post ended at 326. So that’s the same amount as at the end of my last post.)

Removal Percentage: 80%
Current “to-read” shelf: 318

I can’t believe I can finally say that I’ll be under 300 books on my want to read shelf soon. Like I said, there are still quite a few I want to read. What books should I try and get first? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
