Mount TBR 2017 discussion

Good luck with the 2017 climb and keeping your budget! I just can't resist bringing in more books--mostly through library sales and our annual community used book fair and an occasional pilgrimage to my favorite used book store. I try not to go overboard...but books are my kryptonite.

Go Jess! I'm terrible for starting series and not finishing them! Which ones are you working on? If we have any unfinished in common maybe we could do them together to get through them?

Good luck with your climb, Jessika! Ugh, I'm the same, but currently with ebooks instead of physical ones. I'm a sucker to finish series too, it's one of my goals for 2017 to finish my on-going series as well. Maybe if we have some in common we can try and finish them together!

Hi Jessika, I sent you a friend request too. I read a lot of series books as well and would be interested in "buddy reads" if we have any books in common!

I just sent you a friend request. Good luck on your budgeting. It's a weak area for me. I can't resist a cheap ebook even though I really love physical copies. I'm trying to avoid the bookstores except for my once a month bookgroup night and the occasional jaunt to a used bookstore when we're out of town. Hopefully this will help me.

I keep going back to "G" but I really must read "X"!

You have a treat with all those letters still to read!

I hate when I have this 'bookstall' and I can't read even a paragraph. Luckily, that didn't happen this year so far and I'm keeping a good pace. Don't worry, April will bring your motivation around and you'll soon catch up!

Oh cool! You're on track to make your goal. Rooting for you, Jessika. I need to read The Girl on the Train eventually.

Hey, Jessika!
Looking good on your climb.
I just encountered Sanderson's books for the first time this year. Glad you enjoyed this one.

You can do it! I'm struggling a bit with my reads as well, but I think I can finish 5 more books till December!

Good luck! Every book is a stone off the mountain :)

You can make it,Jessika! Good luck!

Well done anyway Jessika. At least you got 52 off the TBR pile. Will you try the same mountain for 2018?
