Down the TBR Hole #9

Web

Down the TBR Hole was created by Lost in a Story. Its purpose is to help narrow down your TBR list on Goodreads by selecting 5 or more titles each week and deciding if you want to keep it on your TBR or get rid of it! I was inspired by Melanie @ Meltotheany to start this blog series as my TBR pile is OUT OF CONTROL!

How it works:

  • Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf.
  • Order on ascending date added.
  • Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books
  • Read the synopses of the books
  • Decide: keep it or should it go?

On the chopping block this week:

A Million Worlds With You by Claudia Gray:

This is the third book in the Firebird series. And while I did enjoy the first two books, it definitely had some flaws and problematic things. However I still want to know how this book ends, so it’s going to stay on my TBR.

VERDICT: KEEP

Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi:

Another YA dystopia… nah.

VERDICT: DELETE

Slasher Girls and Monster Boys by various authors:

I’ve heard many great things about this collection of short horror stories and it includes some of my favorite authors. Definitely keeping.

VERDICT: KEEP

Shutter by Courtney Alameda:

This creepy plot still intrigues me but I really don’t see myself reaching for it any time soon.

VERDICT: DELETE

Catacomb by Madeline Roux:

The first two books were a complete mess.

VERDICT: DELETE

Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs:

This is a tough one. I actually loved the first two books but I gradually lost interest in the world as my tastes have changed over the years. I think, for now, it’ll have to do.

VERDICT: DELETE

 

Thanks for taking a look at my TBR! Please feel free to recommend what books I should add (or remove) from my TBR! You can go here to view my to-read shelf, or here to add me as a friend on Goodreads! 🙂

xx,

Amy

  1. I’m glad you’re keeping A Million Worlds With You! The first two books are great, but I think the third one is the best! It finishes the series with a bang! 😊❤️ hope you enjoy it when you get to it

  2. I actually highly suggest you go back and keep Under the Never Sky…I’m not into dystopian books lately, either, but I was really surprised by this book and loved it.
