Hi everyone! It’s time for Down the TBR Hole #2! The Down the TBR Hole meme was created by the lovely Lia @ Lost in a Story. Here are the rules!
- Go to your goodreads to-read shelf.
- Order on ascending date added.
- Take the first 5 (or 10 (or even more!) if you’re feeling adventurous) books. Of course if you do this weekly, you start where you left off the last time.
- Read the synopses of the books
- Decide: keep it or should it go?
Today we are starting with 373 books on my Goodreads TBR shelf, I added some 2018 releases last weekend! This week I’m taking it back to the beginning but I am skipping over some of the books that I do own. I’ll also admit to having skipped the first 25(ish) books because they have survived many a TBR cull because I really want to read them and keeping ALL the books would make this post a bit dull!
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
This trilogy has been on my TBR for SOOOO long!! I really do want to read it and recently someone recommended the audiobooks to me so I may give them a go. Keep.
Devoted by Jennifer Mathieu
I’m really interested in this book from the synopsis as I think it’s fascinating to read books based around religion and faith. Definitely going to keep.
We Are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson
I remember seeing a lot of hype around this one a year or so ago but I totally forgot it was even on the list. I think this one can go. Remove.
Far From You by Tess Sharpe
I already own this, in fact I randomly picked it up quite a long time ago before I had seen anything about it and since then I’ve seen a lot of high praise for it. It also fits my #DiversityBingo2017 tbr. Keep.
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
I added this to the TBR when I saw loads of people hyping it up quite some time ago but the more I hear about this series the more I become convinced that I just will never pick it up, despite the pretty covers. Remove.
I’ve kept 3 books and removed 2 which leaves my TBR at 371 books.
Are any of these books on your TBR? Have you read any of them?

I’m reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo right now (finally; I’m late to the series as well!) Good call on keeping it 😉

I’ve heard it’s really wordy, how are you finding it?

Hmmm…maybe I don’t notice because I tend to like books that are pretty verbose. I’ve not read many thrillers though, so maybe it seems wordy for the genre? I’m certainly enjoying it anyway!

I have them on my Kindle so I’m sure I’ll read them one day!
