This was originally made by Lost in a Story, and is such a fantastic idea. Here are the instructions:
Go to your goodreads to-read shelf.
Order on ascending date added.
Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books
Read the synopses of the books
Decide: keep it or should it go?
The Books:
Book #191
Tone Deaf by Olivia Rivers
Date added: February 10, 2017
I love me a ya contemporary, you all know that. But this shows some potential abuse trigger warnings and I don’t feel comfortable reading that.
THE JUDGEMENT: Go
Book #192
The Calling (Endgame #1) by James Frey and Nils Johnson-Shelton
Date added: February 10, 2017
I really don’t know how I feel about this synopsis. But I am not too big on dystopian right now so let’s just cross this one out.
THE JUDGEMENT: Go
Book #193
A Thousand Pieces of You (Firebird #1) by Claudia Gray

Book #194
Trouble is a Friend of Mine (Trouble #1) by Stephanie Tromly

I’m a little confused by this synopsis. From what I could make out of it didn’t sound appealing either.
