TBR Book Tag

Hey Guys - 

Saw this Book Tag from Books and Lala on Youtube (Who got it from this link: http://aperfectioncalledbooks.blogspot.com/2014/08/tbr-tag.html) and I figured it would be interesting to do. So take a look below!

How do you keep track of your TBR pile?
I think I have a bunch of ways, one is just books I get from the library,  one is my Goodreads List (for books that are unpublished), one is all the books I have downloaded on my iPad (books app) and my Kindle.

Is your TBR mostly print or ebook?
I'd say that I have about 95% ebooks. I have about 15 print books that are on my TBR and on the bookshelf in my bedroom/apartment. But more of my reading gets done on my Kindle and iPad because I read really quickly and it is easier to carry more books that way. 


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

I am very much a mood reader. So whatever I am in the mood for. When I download books on my iPad, it's usually in an order of when I'm most likely to read it so I usually just go in the order that I have on my iPad.

A Book That's Been On Your TBR List The Longest 
 iPad: The Vincent Boys. This was the first book that I ever downloaded on my books app. While I don't know if I'll ever read it based on how I have these ordered and how many there are, it's been on there for a really long time. 


Goodreads: Truly, Madly. I added this in 2016. 


A Book You Recently Added To Your TBR

iPad: Just Watch Me by Jeff Lindsay. He is the author of the Dexter series and this has to do with a jewel heist. 

Goodreads: Daisy Jones & The Six

A Book In Your TBR Strictly Because Of Its Beautiful Cover

I don't really do that, so I wouldn't say there is anything on there strictly for the cover. While I do initially pick up books because of the cover, I'll put it back down if the description doesn't intrigue me. 


A Book On Your TBR That You Never Plan on Reading
I wouldn't say that I have any books on my TBR that I never plan on reading. Whenever I get them, I have at least some intention of reading them at the time. While my intentions might change, and I might not want to read them in the future, I'll usually delete them from my TBR.  If I had to choose one that I am most likely to not read on my TBR however, it's probably the DaVinci Code. While I love the book, I am not a person who re-reads books. So I am more likely to read everything else on my TBR that I've never read before than re-read the DaVinci Code. 

An Unpublished Book On Your TBR That You’re Excited For 

He Started It by Samantha Downing. I really liked her book My Lovely Wife that I read earlier this year so I am really excited to read this one. I have some ARCs that I'm also looking forward to reading.  


A Book On Your TBR That Basically Everyone’s Read But You 
Where the Crawdads Sing. I downloaded it to read as a part of my work book club, but I actually left the job before the book club ever met, so I never read it. It's been on my list for almost a year at this point and I'm hoping I'll get to it in 2020. 

A Book On Your TBR That Everyone Recommends To You
I don't talk to too many people about books, but my one friend works for Penguin Random House and most recently she recommended to me Ask Again Yes. I'd say that this is probably the only book on my TBR that has been recommended to me specifically. I've gotten some other book recommendations from BookTube, but none specifically for me. 

A Book On Your TBR That You’re Dying To Read
Lock Every Door. Thanks Books and Lala for the recommendation! 

How many books are on your Goodreads TBR shelf?
300 on my iPad, 15 physical books, 50 Kindle Books. 

Love from NYC & Happy Reading! 

Celia
