Down the TBR Hole: an old tag that I need to do

Down the TBR Hole is a meme created by Lia at Lost in a Story where we decide whether to keep or remove books on our TBR. I believe that someone else took over the tag but if someone could let me know that would be great.

Rules:

  • Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf.
  • Order on ascending date added.
  • Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books
  • Read the synopses of the books
  • Decide: keep it or should it go?

Now, I have never gone through my Goodreads shelf and deleted anything. Before doing this, I have 604 books on my TBR. Some of them books that I just saw people read and added them to my list. So this is going to be interesting.

The Magicians (The Magicians, #1)
Keep
The Selection (The Selection, #1)
Keep
The Summer of Chasing Mermaids
Keep
Hello, I Love You
Keep
The Night We Said Yes (The Night We Said Yes, #1)
Keep
How to Start a Fire
Keep
I Was Here
Keep
Love the One You're With
Keep
The Notebook (The Notebook, #1)
Keep
The Fill-In Boyfriend
Keep

So these are my first ten. I did not include the synopsis in these because I realized that the post would be way too long. I obviously am keeping them all. I felt like this was a little bad but its not my fault I chose great books.

Anyways, this was supposed to be a short simple posts just to post something today. I plan on doing more of these. But, I was so tired writing this that I will write more later.

As always, thank you for reading,

A Bookie

October Preview

Well guess who isn’t prepared for this month…

This girl!

So I have really nothing planned for this month. This whole already having posts ready to go, really doesn’t help me when it comes to writing these because I just don’t remember to write more. Basically, I have nothing planned for the month.

I have a few reviews coming out from more books I still have to review from my hiatus.

I want to write some discussion posts but I have no clue what to write about so if anyone has any suggestions please comment below.

I did not finish my TBR for last month so that is being continued up into this month.

Basically this month is going to be a crap show and ya’ll are gonna have to sit through it and deal with it. Posts probably wont come every day but I will try…Any posts I do write will most likely be like this one, rushed, short, and done the night before.

But hey it is October and you know what that means:

HALLOWEEN!!

OTHER OCTOBER THINGS

What I can say is that I shall be giving reviews on Riverdale and Stranger Things. I may give post about my Halloween plans or parties that may happen. I don’t know if that would end up in this month though. I can tell you I shall be doing some fall favorites. I can tell you this because that will be my post for tomorrow because it is simple and easy.

Anyways this is all I can give you for this preview. I know this post sucks, do not judge me. I am doing the best I can with the schedule I have.

Thank you for reading and see you next post!

March 2017 TBR

I am so ready for this month. The books I plan on reading are ones I have been wanting to read for a really, really, really long, long time. I am not gonna waste time chit chatting but instead am going to jump right into it.

Books on my TBR:

These next two books I am currently reading and I didn’t finish in February but one is because it is a school book and the other because I was procrastinating reading the other books.

Forever Doon by Carey Corp and Lorie Langdon

27779008

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens

2623

These are the books I plan on reading this month and I am only choosing two so it is much easier to meet the goal. I have wanted to read these for months now so I am excited to have these on my list.

Illuminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

23395680

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

16096824

I think that is it for my blog today. I want to know what everyone plans to read this month and if these books are good in the comments below so go comments. Thank you for reading. Look out for my reviews of these books.

What books are you reading? Do you have the same books on your TBR?

February TBR

 

Hey guys!

 

I am finally doing my February TBR. I was super bus this weekend and I have no clue why I didn’t do it yesterday because I had a day off of school because of the foot of snow we received. I am now a week into February and have not finished a book or wrote this post but I guess better late than never. So let’s start.

tbr

This month I plan on reading 4 books. Last month i read five but two of the books I planned on reading I didn’t finish so I will read those two and hopefully finish them. Here is my TBR for February:

18006496

20983362

These two books I started last month and it has taken me forever to finish them and I am still not done with them I don’t know why I have read like a little every day. I guess I need to just sit down and read.

18692431

27779008

These two books I am reading in celebration of Valentine’s Day. I know these stories are cutsie romance type books so I am reading them for love day.

2623

Great Expectations is for school and I don’t really know if I like it yet and it is super long so I don’t know if I will be able to finish it by the end of the month or what our reading schedule is so this is just an extra book just to incase.

 

So those are all the books I am reading. I am glad I have finally got this post done. I have been worried about finishing it. After I post this I am going to try and read Passenger to try and make a dent before school starts today. Hope you guys enjoyed this post. Thanks for reading!

 

January TBR

Me choosing my books for this month.

It is now the beginning of a month, the beginning of a year, and that means it is time for a new TBR list. I am excited about my options for books this month. I have lots of books to read but I am only gonna choose three. I have decided for this month to read:

I choose these books to read because first off I love love love the Throne of Glass series. I seriously cannot get enough of it. I don’t know how I am going to sleep while I have these books to read. I choose Passenger because I want to be ready for the release of Wayfarer.

This month I am making a goal to buy one book. I will probably buy both just because that is how I am but I want to get:

I will probably buy two books milk and honey and then one of the other ones. I probably will not get to Forever Doon this month but I really need to finish that series. I really have the worst habit of leaving series unfinished because I never can get the next book.

Thank ya’ll for reading. Tell me down below what books you want to read this month and if you have any books you are planning to buy.

October Wrap-Up & September TBR

Hey. So it looks like I only finished two books this month. Oops, I did it again…

tumblr_mheqkagopf1qihp55o1_250

I am reading the last two books and I would have finished my goal if I had not taken so long on the Great Gatsby. I thought maybe I could finish the books by today a few days after the October but it didn’t work out so here I am posting another wrap-up of shame.

Books I read in October:

I am very ashamed but I will try harder this month. I will be finishing two books soon so hopefully that puts me in good standing with my reading.

Book to be read in November:

  • Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
  • Shadows of Doon by Carey Corp and Lorie Langdon
  • A Separate Peace by John Knowles
  • Its Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini

I am already reading the first three book. A Separate Peace is a book we are reading for class so it will take me longer and I don’t know if we are scheduled to finish  it before the month ends. I will hope to actually finish and maybe read another book. I hope you all like this post. Thank for reading!

September Wrap-Up and October TBR

Hey, guys!

It is the first of October so that means it is time for my monthly wrap-up and my new TBR. So let’s do this.

What I read in September:

I had 5 books in my TBR this month but I just started school again which was hard to balance my time with all my activities. I hope this month will be different and I will be able to finish all the books on my TBR list for October.

October TBR:

  • The Great Gatsby by F.Scott Fitzgerald
  • Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia & Magaret Stohl
  • Destined for Doon by Carey Corp & Lorie Langdon
  • Shadows of Doon by Carey Corp & Lorie Langdon

That is all for this blog. I am excited to read these books and I hope that I finish all of them.

Thank you for reading!
