It should come as no surprise that, as a bookworm, I have a fairly big TBR made up of books from the last five years.
In fact, if you know me, you’ll know that my owned TBR is about 270-280 books. In 2019, and the next few years, I want to really cut that down by (obviously) reading more books but also by unhauling. My reading tastes have changed quite a bit over the last five years and books that interested me before, just don’t have that same effect now. I just need to learn to let go of those books!
Bonus book: Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo.
Most of these books have been on my TBR for at least a year so I absolutely want to read them. I definitely want to unhaul some books so I can create a better system that encourages me to read more of my owned books without feeling overwhelmed.
Are any of the books on my list on your TBR? Or perhaps you’ve read them already?
I’m so excited to read Muse! It was meant to be one of my first reads of 2019, but that didn’t happen! Ah, I have the whole series but I just haven’t got round to reading it yet. I’m going to have to reread A Darker Shade of Magic before I step into Gathering though!
Ah that’s so good to hear!
I’ve heard a lot of good things about both, especially Uprooted! I don’t know why I keep putting off reading it tbh! Yes, I really want to get some of my series finished this year. It is a daunting task but we can do it!
Ooh I just finished a reread of Eliza and her Monsters! I hope you enjoy it when you get to pick it up ❤️ and best of luck on the rest of your 2019 TBR!
Ah that’s good to hear! I’m really looking forward to reading it so want to make it a priority for 2019. Thank you!
I really loved Eliza and Her Monsters, and I’m going to tackle Uprooted soon hopefully!
I’m glad to hear that! I hope you enjoy Uprooted – I’ve heard a lot of good things about it!
*gets out megaphone* PLEASE read A Gathering of Shadows and Muse as soon as you can, they’re honestly fantastic! Snow Like Ashes and History are also both good books (but very different to one another), but I didn’t actually love Aristotle and Dante as much as everyone else. So I’d say put that one at the bottom of your list 😉 Great post!
I shall do once I finally get to it! yeah, I had seen he hadn’t been nice to some readers. I want to give Ari and Dante a go because of the many positive reviews (and because I own it) but I doubt I’ll read anything else of his because I don’t want to support someone who is like that to their fans/readers.
Yay! I’m excited to hear what you think of Muse. Yeah, that’s understandable. I read Ari and Dante before the info about how he treats readers came out, but I don’t think I’ll be reading anything else of his in the future.
I’m so glad to hear that! I’m quite excited to read it now!
