I saw the most AMAZING post from LOST IN A STORY with the most AMAZING idea to help cut down my ridiculously large TBR! Thank you so much for creating this post!!
THIS IS HOW IT WORKS: (straight from original post)
- 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?
Every week I will be going through 10 books on my Goodreads TBR and purging as many as I feel comfortable with. Most likely these posts will go up on a Wednesday. Currently I have 300 to go through and this number is always being added to, so hopefully this will help a lot. Here are my next ten books!
THE BOOKS:
WINTERTOWN BY STEVE EMOND
I don’t know how this one got on my TBR lol
THE JUDGMENT: BYE
SIMON VS. THE HOMO SAPIENS AGENDA BY BECKY ALBERTALLI
I keep meaning to get to this one!
THE JUDGMENT: KEEP
SNOW LIKE ASHES BY SARA RAASCH
I’m not really in the mood for this one.
THE JUDGMENT: BYE
RED QUEEN BY VICTORIA AVEYARD
Im keeping this one for one main reason JESSICA! lololol ❤
THE JUDGMENT: KEEP
TWILIGHT LIFE AND DEATH BY STEPHANIE MEYER
I’ve always loved Twilight, it holds a special place in my heart.
THE JUDGMENT: KEEP
MAGNUS CHASE AND THE GODS OF ASGARD BY RICK RIORDAN

THE JUDGMENT: KEEP
THE WRATH AND THE DAWN BY RENÉE AHDIEH

THE JUDGMENT: BYE
