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 #201

Date added: February 22, 2017
Just going to leave this here for a cold night, because on that rare occasion I might want to read a darker adult romance.

Book #202

Date added: February 22, 2017
Meh, one erotica on my list is enough. And this one doesn’t have anything for me to wonder about like the one above.

Book #203
Flamecaster (Shattered Realms #1) by Cinda Williams Chima
Date added: February 24, 2017
Well, I want to read this, but I am taking it off my list, because I want to read the Seven Realms series first…I’m just like that about my TBR.

Book #204
The Queen’s Rising (The Queen’s Rising #1) by Rebecca Ross
Date added: February 24, 2017
This could be like a lot of other SFF, but it could also be fresh. Lots of 5 stars from my friends, so let’s do this.

Book #205
Malice (The Faithful and the Fallen #1) by John Gwynne
Date added: February 25, 2017
I like to think I like epic fantasy, but for some reason I don’t get drawn into it as much as YA SFF. I have been eyeing this one for a while, and I think I want to make a move on it this upcoming year.

Book #206
The Rose and the Mask: A Beauty and the Beast Retelling (Glass and Roses #1) by Bictoria Leybourne

You guys should know by now that I love BATB retellings. I don’t care that there are a million of them. I love the idea that this one is set in Venice!

Book #209
Literally by Lucy Keating
Date added: March 12, 2017
I was originally interested in this because I am a big fan of Stranger than Fiction. But after reading some reviews, I am feel like I can probably go without reading it.

Book #210
Fearless Flying (Vivienne #1) by Karen Gordon
Date added: March 15, 2017
Whoa, how did this end up on my TBR? Who cares it looks cute, it’s super short, but there are several books in the series…so it’s like one long story? Who cares, it sounds cute and has great reviews.
THE JUDGEMENT: Keep
Starting TBR shelf total: 391
Total books kept: 7
I’m Curious \ ^_^ /
What do you think of my decisions? Have you read any of these books?
