TBR 2020

While my TBR keeps growing and growing, I keep trying to make a dent in it. I joined #Beatthebacklist to priorities books that have been on my TBR (sometimes for years) instead of reading newer books. 

To motivate myself for these challenges I have made a top 20 of Backlistbooks I want to at least get to this year. Please help me get excited for them by telling me which ones you have read and liked.  😊 In no particular order:

The eye of the world by Robert Jordan (has been on my physical shelf for almost 10 years  🙄 time of finally read it this year right?)

The assassins blade by Sarah J. Maas (read the series, but still need to read the prequel)

Renegades by Marissa Meyer

Scythe by Neal Shusterman

Lost boy by Christina Henry

Red queen by Christina Henry

The Gospel of Loki by Joanne Harris

I’ve decided that I’m going to be partaking in #BeatTheBacklist2019 but I’m not really setting a TBR, apart from saying that I have to read from my bookcase, and I have 236 books to choose from. #BeatTheBacklist #bookworm #booklover #bookaddict #bookstagramnewbie #bookstagram #ukbookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Br-tE3QnwUW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3x57pj179w8i

Hey y’all! I’m doing the beat the backlist challenge this year, and I’ve decided to post my tbr for the challenge as pics of my shelves.

Pic one is the mini-shelf that I’m bringing up to college for the semester, pic two is my home tbr shelf, which I’m hoping to get way down during the summer when I’m here (Specific number goal in my goodreads challenge post because I’m too lazy to retype it)

Also on the list but not pictured due to technical difficulties: my tbr tag in the libby & hoopla apps, which I filled as soon as I realized tagging books was a thing

Anyone else doing the beat the backlist challenge?

Update On Goal Challenge To Keep Focus

Update On Goal Challenge To Keep Focus

https://gotgoalsbloghop.blogspot.com #GotGoalsBlogHop Thoughts from my WEPFF entry: – Intriguing that so many commenters thought Osiris to be a woman. It was based on a true story, but I changed names. I really thought I picked a manly name.

“In Egyptian mythology, Osiris is the god of life, death, the flooding of the Nile and the afterlife. He was the brother and husband of Isis.”

Alas, I…
