The Intimidating TBR Tag

I stole this tag from Victoria's old blog Victoria's Book Nook. 

ABOUT MY TBR

Amount: 557 books. 😅  

Mostly: Historical Fiction & Nonfiction.

Since: 2016. 🙊

Will Finish By: 2020??? I don't know... probably not... those things last you all your life. But I do hope to read some books that have been on there for 3 years!! 😅

1 // A book on your TBR pile that you haven't finished.

Like, all of them? If you mean one I started & never finished... A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. I loved it, I just... we were reading it for school, and when we stopped, we weren’t done it... and I had forgotten the beginning over the summer so I have to reread the whole beginning and I just haven’t gotten back to it. 

2 // A book you just haven't had the time to read for.

Basically all of them... We’ll go with A Question of Loyalty by Jesseca Wheaton. I want to reread books 1 & 2 before I read book 3, and I haven’t had time yet. 

3 // A book you haven't read because it's a sequel.

Escape & Endurance by Sarah Holman. I haven't read Dreams & Devotion yet, and I want to read Elapse first, but I haven't gotten it yet. 

4 // A book you haven't read because it's brand new.

So I don't actually have any brand-new books. But... I downloaded this book just the other day... Storm Warriors; or, Life-Boat Work on the Goodwin Sands by John Gilmore. It sounds interesting! I love books about the sea & I just recently discovered books about the lifeboats of England in the 1800s and it’s very interesting. 

5 // A book by and author you read previously but didn't really like.

I don’t happen to have any books that I’m hesitant to try for that reason. But I’m putting off The Earth & Sky by Edward S. Holden because it sounds like his astronomy book which is somewhat boring.

6 // A book on your TBR pile that you’re just not in the mood to read.

5 Secrets of Story Structure by K.M. Weiland. I just don’t feel like studying right now. 😉

(But I've heard it's super good, and it's currently still free, so maybe go check it out?) 

7 // A book on your TBR pile that you haven't read because it's enormous.

*coughs* All of Sir Winston Churchill’s books. I have books 1-3 of his Second World War series and book 2 of his History of the English-Speaking Peoples and... it takes a lot of determination to sit down and read Churchill. I love his writing, but it is long. 

        

8 // A book on your TBR you bought because of the cover.

*hides* So I used to be innocent of this but now I have fallen into it. The Princess Spy by Melanie Dickerson. I have three of her books now and I look forwards to reading them. 

9 // The book on your TBR you find the most intimidating.

Oooo... uh... most intimidating?? The Complete Harvard Classics. That thing is S O  B I G. 😰
