I am now in year FOUR of Tackling the TBR. Slowly but surely I have made big strides in getting my TBR under control. When I first started in 2019, that list was topping out at over 5,000 books. I don't know that I will ever get below 500, but a #BookDragon can dream!
I will be posting on the 7th, 14th, 21st, and the last day of the month. Feel free to join in if you'd like!

I understand this completely. I am doing a no library month with Kami and I am only reading books I own or have said I would review. I am not sure how many I have read this month that I own, I feel like at least 5...Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI really NEED to say no more library for a while, but Eleanor reads just as much as I do, so I can't cut off her supply! Good luck to you as well!
DeleteSo many new books again. "Invincible Louisa" is still on my wishlist.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my good, bad, and ugly TTT this week.
I took some of these off because I had not made progress for a while, but I decided to put everything up once more that is still on my Goodreads Currently Reading shelf. I am hoping it motivates me...we'll see!
DeleteI always think, next month I'm going to read those books and then life interferes ... I mean, other books. LOL
DeleteYES! That is why I am trying to put off going to the library for a while. I keep finding interesting non-fiction in the new releases section and it puts off me reading everything else I already own. We have such difficult lives, lol
DeleteI know. Such a dilemma. LOL
DeleteSo far I am doing well and have stayed away. But it's only been two days, lol, so...
DeleteHahaha, and it must be hard with Eleanor, you have to go for her and will definitely find books for you.
DeleteYes!! Although we have checked out a few longer chapter books to read lately. But the librarians always take note of things they think she will like, so we always have recs whenever we go in. I love that despite being a massive library system with something like 16 branches, librarians really take time to get to know their patrons.
DeleteYou're always giving me new book ideas! Have you read Tidepool yet???
ReplyDeleteTwo Truths and a Lie is decent so far, I don't know for sure yet because I am not even halfway yet, but it's creepy. I have not read Tidepool, who is the author?
DeleteI'm to remember if I rec'd this one to you? Here it is- 1.99 Kindle!!

I seriously do not remember this one, but the cover is gorgeous and looks vaguely familiar, so I guess you did?? Our library doesn't have it so I am going to request the purchase ASAP!
DeleteLooks like you're making progress. And you have the freedom to DNF a book. Me too! That's been freeing, to realize I don't have to read a book all the way through. Sometimes I'll get to about 15 or 20 percent and then just skip to the last 10 or 15 % to see how it wraps up, lol
ReplyDeleteI used ot hate DNF-ing because I am super competitive with myself and want to #READALLTHEBOOKS. But there are way too many good books yet to read for me to waste my time on trash so I have gotten a lot more comfortable tossing books that turn out to be nonsense.
Deletesome great looking books...slow and steady wins the race. :-)

Yes!! I am trying to not get any library books for a while in order to get to some of these on my Kindle and physical shelves.
DeleteI hope you review Titanic Day by Day!
ReplyDeleteIt's a very cool book, I really like it. It's not really one that you can read straight through, otherwise everyone becomes a jumble of names and dates swirling together. But it is so thorough that I feel like it is a must for Titanic fans.
