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?
My shelf is up down a couple of books to 1130. While I finished several books, I also added several to my wishlist.
This week’s books:
If Books Could Kill by Kate Carlisle – KEEP. This is the second book in the “Bibliophile Mystery” series, and I enjoyed Homicide in Hardcover enough to keep reading. I’m going to try to get to it before the end of the year.
Marina by Carlos Ruiz Zafón – KEEP. I love “The Cemetery of Forgotten Books” series, and this stand-alone novel sounds like it will be just as wonderfully atmospheric.
Circus of Wonders by Elizabeth Macneal – KEEP. The synopsis sounds like this book will be very good, but I’m not expecting anything as amazing as Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus.
In the Shadow of Spindrift House by Mira Grant- KEEP. So far, I’ve loved Grant’s books, and this one looks like it will be Lovecraftian. Hopefully, I can get to it next year.
Friends with Bunny Feets by Andrew Seiple – KEEP. I love the “Threadbare” series! Stuff and Nonsense wasn’t my first LitRPG novel, but it might be my favorite.
My want-to-read shelf is holding steady at 1130 books. I didn’t think I would let go of any books this week, but I’m not sure about one of the books that will be in the next post.
