The TBR Tag

I saw The TBR Tag on Read All The Things ages ago and finally decided to give it a go. I'm definitely trying to work on reducing my current TBR number this year so felt it was quite apt. If you want to take part, then consider yourself tagged (remember to post your link in the comments to let me know).


1. How do you keep track of your TBR?

I use Goodreads, mainly because it's easy to find and link to the exact copy of a book (most of the time).


2. Is your TBR mostly print or ebook?

At the moment print, I really only read ebooks if they're arcs.

3. How do you determine which book to read next?

Whatever I'm in the mood for really. I decide what I want to read for the week on Sunday to give me a rough idea of what I should carry around with me. However, if I have an arc due then I will read that.

4. A book that’s been on your TBR the longest?

I'm not too sure, I only joined Goodreads last year so can't even check dates on that. Probably Pride and Prejudice or The Hobbit.

5. A book you recently added to your TBR?

My most recent addition is Pivotal Moments by Trinity Hanrahan, an arc from Netgalley.

6. A book on your TBR because of its cover?

I'm so bad at this, but again recently it was Read Me Like a Book by Liz Kessler and The Loneliness of Being Distant by Kate Ling. Just look at how gorgeous they are!!

7. A book on your TBR that you never plan on reading?

I hope to read all books on my TBR... but maybe Romeo and Juliet...

8. An unpublished book sequel on your TBR that you’re excited for?

The Burning World (Warm Bodies #2) by Isaac Marion. August can't come quick enough!

9. A book on your TBR that everyone has read but you?

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. I vow that this year will be the year.

10. A book on your TBR that everyone recommends to you?

After reading Fangirl, it would definitely be Carry On by Rainbow Rowell.

11. A book on your TBR that you’re dying to read?

A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro. The idea of Sherlock and John's grandkids just intrigues me.

12. How many books are on your Goodreads TBR?

At the time of writing... 307... I hope to get this below 275 by the end of the year... Not too sure how that will turn out though...

  1. Such a fun tag! I think I did this one last year, even though I wasn't tagged, just because the questions were fun =) My Goodreads TBR is insane too, but I've been on there since 2008 and originally went crazy adding every book imaginable. I did a big cull last year, and have it down to 300ish, but I would love to have my TBR actually be the books that I plan to actually read one day .. sign. Bookish problems, right?

    1. Yeah, it is pretty fun. It's so hard not to go crazy on Goodreads. I'm trying to only add books to my TBR now that I own or I love the author. But it's proving so difficult. I definitely try to cull it every so often. Just another one of our many problems haha!

Discussion: The Problem With My Local Library

I used to use my local library all the time when I was in school.  Source I even spent every lunchtime in my school's library. My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.  Source The availability sucks. I can deal with books I want that are already out on loan. It's the complete lack of decent books the library has on its system that gets to me. All those months I went to the library last year and I never left with a book that was already on my TBR. I walked around that place looking at my Goodreads trying to find any book on that list. And I couldn't find any at all (except for the Classics). To be honest, I ...
