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:
CRAZY HOUSE BY JAMES PATTERSON
I’m gonna pass on this one right now.
THE JUDGMENT: BYE

I really hope you enjoy all those Stephen King books! I’ve read them all and they are so good! My favourite of his is 11/22/63 it’s not a horror novel it’s more thriller/mystery and I loved that he went out of his horror comfort zone!
