I was just putting all my reviews into my review page and ran across my old review of Unraveling and was reminded how much I hated that book. It's definitely one that seems to be love it or hate it.

So I made a "TBR Jar" type thing like Katytastic uses. Mine is more of a basket...haha. And that is just for my physical TBR! I'm going to try to pick at least one book that way each month so that I don't just read BOTMs and review books. My poor shelf gets neglected!

message 20: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (shadowrose) That's a really good idea! Since I took a photo of all the physical books I've yet to read last week I feel like I'm hoarding, lol. So maybe if I do that I can feel better about owning so many.

Lindsay, I've been doing something like that all year, but I give myself a " budget" of 4$ for every book I read! So I actually have to get more books read than I bring in!

LOL, Lisa, you haven't seen my shelves. I think I have you beat ;)

The reason it's only a basket is that each book is only a little tiny slip of paper...hehe.


message 27: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Church (lindsaychurch) Angela's shelves are like being in a library. I'm jealous bit would be very overwhelmed. LOL

I have no clue what I'm reading in July. I keep wanting to read, and then I'm like well it won't be as good as Charley Davidson so why even bother. I think I might have book hangover....:(


message 46: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (destinyisntfree) | 161 comments Well, I made a bit of a dent in My June TBR but not as much as I should have. For July, The plan goes:
Awaken by Meg Cabot
The SCorpio Races
The Raven Boys
Underworld by Meg Cabot
The Runaway King by Jennifer Nielsen
Solstice by P.J. Hoover
Awaken by Meg Cabot

There are actually a lot more than that but I want to at least get those out and i want to finish Catcher in the Rye.
