Randomizing my TBR #5 | Jan 23, ’24

Good morning!

As I have yet to finish “Out of Character” because of headaches, why not trying to shrink my TBR some more! 😄 I also discovered the lovely quick “copy”/”duplicate” for those kind of posts and omg what a life saver it is! No idea why I didn’t used it before.

 

This TBR game/whatever you wanna call it – is entirely my own idea (though the concept of TBR games are not original). You are more than welcome to do it yourself, but I would like credit; @DBsguidetothegalaxy.

• The Steps; Go to your want-to-read shelf. Click to show 10 books (for Goodreads, that’s down at the bottom).
  • Also on Goodreads, click to sort the books by random.
    Now you have 10 random books!
  • Decide what to do with them – remove, read right now, or just… leave it on the tbr shelf lol. What I did which isn’t very smart, lol, is create two additional tbr shelves.

So, because I use Storygraph, mine will be done a bit different.. as it doesn’t allow me to randomize 10 books just yet. So today’s mood will be “Adventurous”, “fiction”, and I choosed to be shown “Pub date; earliest”. I will then proceed to take the first 10 it gives me.

Virtual wanna read shelf after; 1180. This was quite a good purge, wasn’t it? 🥰 Removing most of the “too fantasy” books for me, that I added as they sounded good while knowing darn well that I can’t get them.

 

Have you read any of those?
