The bottom 2 rows of this bookcase are ALL TBR. 😱
I made a reading plan at the beginning of a month once and found that it stressed me out. I just have to go where the whim takes me!
Does anyone else find reading plans stressful?
CocoReads I find them to be helpful if they aren't detailed. Like, I know what I need to read for bookgroup and I have ideas of what else but 9 out of 10 times I just read what I'm in the mood to read 8y
MicheleinPhilly 🙋🏻Whenever I make any sort of list, I never stick to it. I might read 1 or 2 that I've pre-selected but overall, it just makes me anxious. 8y
Libby1 Ooh, that's good, @CocoReads . I once set out a planned stack of books and it was the most stressful reading month I've ever had! 8y

Dogearedcopy I just make a nightstand stack of the books that I think I might like to hit up for the month; but I usually only end up reading a quarter of them; the rest getting shuffled back into the perpetual #TBR stax... #nostress #readnobookbeforeitstime 8y
LiteraryinPA With the exception of library books, which I try to only borrow when I'm ready to read them, I definitely do not go by a list. When it's time to choose a new book, I scan my shelves to see what mood I'm in! 8y
ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Oh, yeah. I can't handle book pressure. I have to just go where the whim takes me. 8y
awishman It makes me anxious to not have a plan! Used to wish I was spontaneous, but I now embrace it. Do what works for you. 8y
Felso No planning here, have to go by feeling. 8y
kspenmoll I can have vague ideas but like @Felso I choose books by my mood. (edited) 8y
Libby1 Thanks for the input, @Dogearedcopy , @LiteraryinLititz , @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled , @awishman , @Felso , @kspenmoll . It's fun to see what other people do. 8y
