October Book Haul

Book Haul | Check out the books I hauled this month #bookhaul

So I have gotten really overwhelmed lately with college, life, and trying to read. So I'm going to put of my Unhaul challenge for a year and allow myself more time to read in a better pace for my needs right now. Especially when I was coming up to November and December, my haul lists were outrageously large last year and I won't be able to read them all. I'm still going to work on trying to read what I've hauled - older has more priority, but I'm going to wait one more year for the Unhauls :)

Top Ten 2017 Books I Want to Read

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. More information here.


Today's theme is Backlist Books I Want to Read. To avoid being repetitive with all the books that have landed on my various TBRs (whether seasonal or for readathons), I decided to narrow it down to 2017 books. I have 300 books that were published in 2017 on my TBR, so here are the ten that I am MOST excited about (in no particular order) and still want to read sooner rather than later.

November Monthly TBR & Challenge Updates

Monthly TBR and Challenge Update | The post where I share what I plan to read and how badly I'm doing on my yearly reading challenges :)

I had 5 books on my October TBR and started 2 of them. It was a rough go. I did read 3 library books that were not on my TBR, but two of those were audiobooks that I had already been reading in physical form. October was, in general, such a stressful month and I didn't get as much done - reading, blogging, and college-wise - as I normally do. It's the lowest amount of books I have read all year. This month, I have 4 books on my TBR and we'll see what happens. I don't anticipate it being too rough of a month.

My Tentative TBR for November:
  • White Little Lies by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
  • An Unkindness of Ghosts by Rivers Soloman
  • Talon by Julie Kagawa
  • Everless by Sara Holland
