Ahh okay, now that makes sense! Your shelves are WAY more organized than mine, heehee. Ig they kinda have to be, but still that's impressive!

Hm, okay, so...

IIR = Interested In Reading; MTR = Maybe To Read. They're the same thing, except one is Christian books (MTR) and one is secular books (IIR). They're basically just books I wanna read.
TBS = To Be Sorted. These are books that I want to check if I can get at Internet Archive. XD It's gotten a little out of hand.
TBR = To Be Read. That's books I own or can borrow from the library, family, etc.
WNR = Will Not Read. It's books I've already checked on and know they contain stuff which means I won't read them.
WTR = Want To Read. I save this exclusively for indie books and books from a series. It means books I really, REALLY want to read.

Books Paused is because I have a bad habit of starting books, then putting them aside and coming back later. I put them there instead of leaving them in my Currently Reading because that stresses me out if it's got many books lol.

As for the numbers, it's just because a Goodreads shelf malfunctions if it has more than 10,000 books, so I do 9,999 and then start a new once. Hence the IIR1, IIR2, and TBS2. I haven't reached the limit with the other shelves yet :)

Now you have me wondering - what do your different GR bookshelves mean? What's the difference between mtr, iir, tbs, etc - and the numbering system? This little brain is confused 😂

We've been *slowly* collecting Henty's books . . . my dad usually gives my brother and me a new one each Christmas. :) My favorite so far would definitely be Beric the Briton.

Of course! Thank you so much—they take up a lot of time, so it's good to know someone appreciates them :) Ahh, how fun! I don't know many people who've read that :)

Thanks for accepting my friend request, Katja! 💕 I always enjoy reading your reviews - that's actually how I originally found you (quite a while ago), from your review of Henty's With Wolfe in Canada. 😊

Lol! In English, people pronounce it La-Bohn-Tay. In French… well, I can’t spell it in a way you’d hear it properly, haha! Thanks for asking—and thanks, I do love my name even if it is complicated 😂
