Down the TBR Hole #82
These past two weeks have been good! I only added one new book to my want-to-read shelf on Goodreads. I did also read a book that was on this shelf, so I’d say that’s progress!
Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story. 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!
Review | You’re Invited – Amanda Jayatissa
I downloaded this eARC on a whim to be honest, but as soon as I started it I was invested. So today I want to share my thoughts on this adult psychological thriller. Let’s jump in!

Bookish Item | August TBR
How am I already talking about the books I want to read in August?!? I keep saying it, but this year is really flying by. Once again, I probably won’t stick to my TBR, but here are some books I’ll be reading for book clubs and some books and e-arcs I really want to get to! Keep on reading to find out more.
Edelweiss Next #1
So we just recently started doing weekly Netgalley Next posts and I decided to do this for another platform as well. Besides Netgalley I also use Edelweiss for e-arcs. This website doesn’t have a feedback ratio, but I still think it’s important to make sure to keep updated with these e-arcs as well.
So just like we do with Netgalley Next, I’m going to talk about 3 Edelweiss e-arcs I’m really wanting to read, read the first line/paragraph, and choose which one grabs me the most! Let’s take a look!
Wishlist Wednesday | Anticipated Releases August 2022
We keep saying this, but how is it already time to talk about August releases?!? 2022 is really flying by! What books are we looking forward to? We’re near September when book releases start to get nuts, so how bad is August? Keep on reading to see which books are on our most anticipated August releases!

WWW Wednesday #16
It’s Wednesday, so time for a new WWW Wednesday to talk about my reading progress and plans. I really love these posts and talking more about what I’m reading before the monthly wrap up. Even if my reading plans change I like thinking about what I’m going to read!
So it’s time for my next WWW Wednesday. This is a weekly meme hosted by Taking On a World of Words and you participate by simply answering three questions:
- What did you recently finish reading?
- What are you currently reading?
- What do you think you’ll read next?
TTT #247 | Books From My Past Seasonal TBR Posts I STILL Haven’t Read
We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is books from my past seasonal TBR posts I STILL haven’t read. To be honest I probably could just copy and paste all of my seasonal TBRs, haha. I’ll look back at my fall 2021 and winter 2021 TBRs that I posted. Out of these 20 books I’ve read 5, so I definitely have 10 for this list, haha.

Netgalley Next #3
One of our reading goals is working on our Netgalley feedback ratio. Eventually we want to get it to 80%. And to help motivate us we decided to do this new post every week. We pick three of our eARC’s and based on the first line, paragraph, or page we decide which one we’ll read next. Let’s take a look at today’s picks! Continue reading “Netgalley Next #3”
