TBR Tag

I first saw this at Books Equal Awesomeness back on September 27th!  Since then, I've been seeing it everywhere so I decided to give it a shot!  I was also tagged by the lovely Cari over at My Addiction: Books waaay back in October.  It was originally created by Rachel at A Perfection Called Books and Dana at Dana Square.




How do you keep track of your TBR pile?

Goodreads!  I would be completely lost without that website.  I have so many books on my TBR, it would be a mess if I didn't have Goodreads and it was on a Word doc or a notebook!

Is your TBR mostly print or ebook?

Actually, I don't really pay attention to that.  If I receive a book in an ebook format, that's what I'll read it in.  If I can find it at the physical library, awesome!  It really doesn't matter to me at all as long as I get to read the book!

How do you determine which book from your TBR to read next?

Okay, confession time.  I actually don't look at my TBR all that much and I don't read books based on what's on my TBR.  My TBR just helps me keep track of series' with new books coming out or obscure books that aren't mainstream that I want to read but can't right then.  I'm trying to fix that though!  I'm going to start using my TBR jar that I made next year to start going through that!

A book that's been on your TBR the longest


Okay this is just shameful.  The Lux series is one of my favorite series' and I haven't read the last book yet!  I put this on my TBR list back in July of 2013, the same month I joined Goodreads.  Horrible.  I can't even put into words how horrible this is to me.  Maybe I just unconsciously didn't want the series to end so I conveniently 'forgot' about the last book?

A book you recently added to your TBR


One of my Goodreads friends recommended this to me a couple days ago and it's getting really good reviews so I'm curious to see what the fuss is all about!

A book in your TBR strictly because of its beautiful cover



GR                                                        GR
I had to pick two for this because these are both such beautiful covers!  I have so many books in my TBR pile that just have beautiful covers... hey, they might be hidden gems!

A book on your TBR that you never plan on reading

I don't have a book for this one!  I plan on reading all of the books on my TBR - otherwise I wouldn't have put it on there!

An unpublished book on your TBR that you are excited for

The fourth book in the Throne of Glass series!!  We don't have a release date, cover, or blurb yet but I'm so excited!  I just finished rereading the whole Throne of Glass series and I can't wait!!

A book on your TBR that basically everyone's read but you


The entire Infernal Devices series.  I just finished The Mortal Instruments series and it was less than stellar in my opinion so I'm a bit hesitant on TID but I've heard Magnus is one of the major players in the book and he's just amazing!  So I just have to find the time to read this series!
GR


A book on your TBR that everyone recommends to you


Everyone says it's amazing and wonderful!  Don't worry, it's on hold at the library!!

GR





A book that you are dying to read


I've heard this book is simply fabulous and I can't wait to read it!!  The cover is beautiful too!

GR





How many books are on your Goodreads TBR shelf?

Ha.  Erm.  Great question that one.  It is currently 3,668 books long.  Don't you dare say anything!


This tag has circulated for quite some time and I feel like everyone has done it.  If you haven't, go my friend!  Go now and do it!  Consider this your invitation to do something wonderful!  :D

  2. Great post! I don't follow a TBR either and tend to pick whatever I'm in the mood for unless I have review copies. You should definitely read The Infernal Devices, and soon! You'll love it :)

  4. This is such a fun tag. I use Goodreads to keep track of things too, but my list got out of control for a bit and I had to clean it up.

    1. It was really fun to do :) That just might be a good idea for me to do as well...
