Down the TBR Hole (1) ! 👀
Hey!
So finally, after saying how I should do this everywhere — Here’s my first “Down the tbr hole!” post ! 👏🏼 we’ll start talking about the physical books i’ve un-hauled recently, and then we’ll move on with my “virtual wanna read” shelf on goodread; totalling ten books.
Down The TBR Hole was created by Lia @ Lost In A Story, here’s more explanations upon what this meme is;
“Most of you probably know this feeling, your Goodreads TBR pile keeps growing and growing and it seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. You keep adding, but you add more than you actually read. And then when you’re scrolling through your list, you realize that you have no idea what half the books are about and why you added them. Well that’s going to change!”
What’s the process?
~ 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?
Physically Un-hauled books (3)
I thought I shall include this here instead of a separate post .. 😅 So as some of you may know, i’ve talked of un-hauling some books before — This is actually the first time I do! My french copy of The Night Circus did find a home, but not the others – despite trying to sell them or give them.. so as the coffee shop I work at as a “free library”, I just decided to bring them there ! Bonus; I can see if they’re still there or now when I work!
Here’s which ones got un-hauled, two are mine while one is from my godmother. My mom read it and decided I wouldn’t like it so she asked me to bring it aswell.
Fractured, Dani Atkins / The reader on the 6.27, Jean-Paul didierlaurent / Into the Darkest Corner, Elizabeth Haynes

Thoses were basically added because this is a french youtuber I really loved and watched religiously. First is about her life, second is fiction.
first one leaves, keep second
• Paranoïa, Melissa Bellevigne (Paranoïa #1)
Date added; May 4, 2017
Goodread Page
This one got mainly added same as Marie’s.. I loved this person as a youtuber and I was watching her religiously. Difference being that Melissa always has been a writter and differ from the “Books by youtuber” trends..
Keep, still interested
Total books on the shelf afterward – 225
*aherm* alright so.. all of thoses 7 has been added on the day I’ve got my goodread, and thus was mostly books i’ve heard of from following previous books i’ve read and etc.. so thoses were kind of a “sure value” of keeping – let’s say xD I did unhauled 2 books from my personal shelves though, so that counts eh ?? 🙄

How nice that you have a free library at your work! It will be fun to see when the books are taken. 🙂
Indeed!! They are still there however 😔
I love this idea. You are right – the list grows out of control and I would bet if I went back through mine, I would find many things I could put aside.
also our taste may have change through the years.. more effective when you’d have it for a long time however xD we”ll see how it does on mine
Oh I’m glad you’re keeping the rules of attraction series, I read that one… wow, too long ago hahaha but I really enjoyed it 🙂
Happy reading! 🙂
Oooh!!
Yes iknow xD i need to reread the first one with Alex so bad too! (Only recently figured I CAN read them now.. as they didnt translated them like the first tome..)
It is so hard to get rid of a book! I have enough trouble just deleting ones from my TBR. I love you have a free library at work. Keep up the good work! ❤️❤️
Iknow..
