Today it’s time to try and get my want to read shelf on Goodreads under 300 books. We’re at 306, so I’m hoping it’s a good week for me. I haven’t added anything to this shelf since 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: 306 (my last post ended at 306. So that’s the same amount as at the end of my last post.)

This was quite a productive week! The two books I kept, I do own. That being said there are still quite a few of these I really want to read. I just don’t have them at this moment.

It only took me almost 200 posts to get my want to read shelf under 300 books, haha. I’m making progress though. I still need to figure out what I’ll do once I get through my whole list again. That’s a problem for future me though. Have you read any of these? Should I try and prioritize any of these? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you!
