Down the TBR Hole was started by Lia over at Lost in a Story. All book covers are linked to Goodreads unless otherwise noted.
How it works:
- 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?
I will be repeating this process until I’ve filtered out my entire TBR.
My TBR pile is still sitting at 706 books. Even though I finished a couple of books, I also added a couple.
This week’s books:
Girl Defective by Simmone Howell – KEEP. The synopsis starts with “In the tradition of High Fidelity and Empire Records…” There is no way I’m not reading this book.
Time and Again by Jack Finney- KEEP. This story involves time travel and a romance. If it is in any way comparable to Outlander, I’ll take it.
The Old Brown Suitcase by Lillian Boraks-Nemetz – KEEP. This is the story of a young girl who lived in the Warsaw Ghetto and then immigrated to Canada. I’m a little obsessed with books about WWII.
Imaginary Boy by Mark Eldrich – GO. I don’t know why, but I’m no longer interested in reading this book. *Shrug*
The Song of the Quarkbeast by Jasper Fforde – GO. I’m only removing this book because I haven’t read the first book in the series yet. I’ll probably add it back to my TBR after I finish The Last Dragonslayer.
My to-read shelf is down to 704 books. Since I just started ‘Salem’s Lot by Stephen King, that number isn’t likely to go down by next Saturday. However, next weekend is the Dewey’s 24-Hour #Readathon! There won’t be a “Down the TBR Hole” post until the weekend after that, and I’m hoping I’ll be down to 700 books by then.
