Down the TBR Hole #9

So because of March Break and senioritis, my TBR pile has been blowing up. (Thanks Christina) Therefore, I thought it was time for another Down the TBR Hole.

This meme was started by Lia @ Lost in a Story so don’t forget to check her blog out!

How it works:

  • Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf.
  • Order on ascending date added.
  • Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books
  • Read the synopses of the books
  • Decide: keep it or let it go?

line-break

Emma in the NightThese Broken Stars (Starbound, #1)A Million JunesThree Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1)The Young Elites (The Young Elites, #1)

(damn, look at all those dark covers)

Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker – I mean it’s a thriller. I get shocked easily. Why not. Keep it.

These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman, Meagan Spooner – I may have unspokenly sworn of sci-fi romance. It’s also giving me Passengers vibes (enjoyable movie, nonetheless, but I don’t think I need to read it again). Let it go.

A Million Junes by Emily Henry – I’m on the fence with this one. But like always, I’m on the fence with magical realism but end up loving it. It also doesn’t hurt that it’s a retelling of a Shakespeare tragedy… Keep it.

Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake – I’m kind of keen on letting this go, because I don’t know at what occasion I might actually read this book. And after seeing that it’s an ongoing series of 4 books, yea… Letting it go.

The Young Elites by Marie Lu – I love Marie Lu, but no. Sorry, I added all these books back when I was in grade 8, and they’re quite different from what I usually read now. I used to be a lover of dystopia. Letting it go.

Hopefully, I’ll eventually ease into when high school me began adding books to my TBR. I was a voracious reader back in grade 8, because I had a whole circle of friends who just constantly read. It’s nice to look back on the types of books I read then.

  1. Nice post! I think it was a good idea to get rid of The Young Elites because I’ve tried to read the sequel multiple times but never gotten into it. I’m apprehensive about A Million Junes too but there’s something making me keep it on my TBR 🙂
