October 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 :)

In my September TBR, I wanted to finish the books I was currently reading. I did finish 2 of the 3, which must be a record for me for my TBR. This month, I would like to finish the books I'm currently reading. I know I'm going to start new books that I shouldn't until I finish my current reads, but I guess this is just the way I am LOL. However, I am going to try and make it a point that if I do start a new read, it has to be something that has been on my seasonal TBRs or a Netgalley book. I think that is more than fair and leaves me with a lot of options.

My Tentative TBR for October:
  • The Darkest Star by Jennifer L. Armentrout
  • Bird Box by Josh Malerman
  • Cold Burn of Magic by Jennifer Estep
  • Nevernight by Jay Kristoff

Top Ten Books On My Fall 2019 TBR

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

If this set of books looks familiar...it's because it's nearly identical to my Summer TBR. I hope to actually get some of these read before I get to my Winter TBR. I can do it. I know I can. Most months I read at least 3 to 4 books. I have a feeling some of these will be very quick reads. So here we go...


  1. Nevernight by Jay Kristoff - if you've been around for a while, you'll know this book makes every list. Ever. I've started this book and it has made 10 TBRs.
  2. Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody - I have also started this one and put it down. It's made 5 TBRs
  3. Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young - I read an excerpt of this, received an ARC, and I also have a signed finished copy. It has made 5 TBRs. I NEED TO READ IT.
  4. The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken - I started this one. I would like to read it and then see the movie. It's been on 3 TBRs.
  5. Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan - Another one that I would love to read asap so I can watch the movie. It has made 2 TBRs and I have started it and was enjoying it, but then had to return it to the library because of the massive waitlist.
  6. Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake - I tried this one on audio and couldn't keep up. I purchased it on Kindle and just never picked it back up. It's been on 2 TBRs.
  7. Me, Earl, and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews - I started this in a try-a-chapter prompt in July  2018 for a readathon. I was enjoying it but another book won out. It's been on 1 TBR.
  8. Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend - It's been on 3 TBRs and is super hyped and I know I'll love it.
  9. Bird Box by Josh Malerman - Perfect for fall and I've had it suspended on an infinite hold at my library.
  10. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid - I need to see what all the hype is about and this one is also one that's been suspended on an infinite hold at my library. So I need to get to it.
