Hey everyone! Long time no see! I’ve had some issues in the past year when it comes to motivation and reading, and for the first time in my life I went months without reading. It was honestly the break I needed. I’m not saying I’m back to the way I was, but I’m definitely feeling a little better AND it helps that w’re all stuck in our in houses so boredom has kind of allowed me to pick up a book without wanting to shove in the trash can.
So as a way to ease myself in and read some of the books I’ve had lying around I have started making TBRs (purposely too large) to focus on for a week a so. I read those books and at the end of the week I make a new one, sometimes with the books I didn’t get to and sometimes not. It gives me structure but doesn’t make me feel like I HAVE to finish every time.
Here is the TBRs I’ve had in my absence.
Unfinished Books – April 9th -15th
These were some of the books I have started and left unfinished on my shelves. I figured this quaretine was the perfect time to tackle some of them, especially my book club picks, since my goal was to get it started again on Litsy.
- Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb
- The Book of Lost Tales Part One by J.R.R. Tolkien
- Dragon Age: Tevinter Nights
- A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe by Alex White
- Sauerkraut by Kelly Jones
- Gemina by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
- Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin
Finished 3 of 7 books
I’m Blue – April 16th-23rd
This is kind of self explanatory, but for this one I picked books that had covers that were mainly blue. Of course the spines don’t match them, because the publishing industry hates consistency.
- Physics of the Impossible by Michio Kaku
- Dragon Age Tevinter Nights
- Hard in High Town
- Gemina by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
- Howling Dark by Christopher Rucchio
- Morning Star by Pierce Brown
In a few days I will hopefully post my next TBR project, and the wrap up of this week’s TBR. Just a heads up, I’m still not in a place where I want to review books. I’ve kind of moved away from it, and it doesn’t seem all that appealing anymore. It turned a hobby into work and I kind of resent it at the moment. But I will give my basic thoughts on the ones I finish.
