The top row and the next two books are my must-reads for #February. The City & The City and The Firemaker are the two I‘m most likely to read for #Booked2022 (I need 2 per month to finish on time). The others are my current plan for #ReadingAfrica2022. I need 5 per month to finish that challenge by the end of the year. I have a little wiggle room because of last month, but I‘d like to try to keep that for later in the year. #proposedTBR
I put together a #proposedtbr for September, including books for challenges, an intent to try to whittle away my extensive NetGalley queue, and finishing up books from August. In doing so, I came to a horrifying realization. I don‘t feel like reading. Anything. I would like to have read everything here, but I don‘t want to actually read anything right now, not even any of the other unread books on my shelves. 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺#horror
Here is my initial #proposedTBR for May. My birthday is at the end of the month, so I reserve the right to completely throw this out the window. 🤣 I want to finish the books I started in April, Dark Age and A Small Town in Germany. Untamed is my work book club pick and we meet on the 11th. I‘m pretty sure Destination Unknown is the next LMPBC. Those are my must reads. The rest are a combo of favorites: authors, books, and genres.
I realized yesterday that I still hadn‘t done a #proposedTBR post for November. I wasn‘t sure I was up to my original November list from the beginning of the year. Then I compared what I was currently reading against the original list and realized I had essentially started the list, so here‘s my NF/Noirvember TBR. Not sure if Mrs Mohr is really noir, but it‘s a mystery, so close enough. ☺️
My #ProposedTBR for January: finish the three “in progress” reads following me into the new year from December (not pictured is the digital ARC of The God Game), the first of my #YearofDumas reads, and the books that have been recommended over the last 5 quarters by my BookRiot bibliologist that are still unread. But first, a nap to sleep off the XL mimosa from New Year‘s brunch. 🤣🤣
My April #proposedTBR. The top row is my must-read shelf. I‘m hoping to make a dent in the bottom shelf and get through at least half of the middle shelf.
