I just really love these posts. I know I’ve said it before, but it’s just so calming to clear out this list. I even think my friend, Erin, is going to join in on the fun!
I was going to do a review today, I really was. But after work, I just was too tired to think about a review. I just wanted something simple and fun, so here we are!
My TBR is starting at 1976. Let’s see where we end up!
Grey by EL James
- Date Added: June 26, 2015
- Thoughts: Yep. I read all the 50 Shades books, so obviously this one is on the list. I mean, yeah, I’ll keep. Guilty pleasure?
- Keep or Delete: Keep
While My Sister Sleeps by Barbara Delinsky
- Date Added: June 26, 2015
- Thoughts: Book about two sisters, one who suffers a heart attack and may never wake up. Seems too chick-lit for my tastes now.
- Keep or Delete: Delete
Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella
- Date Added: June 26, 2015
- Thoughts: This is like a chick-lit, cozy mystery mix. She is trying to help her dead aunt find a necklace. Just doesn’t seem all that interesting to me.
- Keep or Delete: Delete
Body of Evidence by Patricia Cornwell
- Date Added: June 26, 2015
- Thoughts: Yes yes yes. Keep the crime novels coming my way. I read the first in this series and loved it so I’m good with continuing!
- Keep or Delete: Keep!
High Water by Lynn Hightower
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: Mystery book about a borderline(?) abusive father who might have killed the mom – until he turns up dead too. I’m into it.
- Keep or Delete: Keep
The Drowning Tree by Carol Goodman
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: This is another mystery, but the synopsis isn’t sticking out to me. I think I’ll let this one go.
- Keep or Delete: Delete
There’s No Place Like Here by Cecelia Ahern
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: Ugh I don’t know about this one. At first it’s like, yes this girl finds missing people and I’m here for it. Then she disappears and ends up in some weird place all missing people go? That does not sound right up my alley.
- Keep or Delete: Delete. I feel like I’d love the looking for people but absolutely hate the missing people place.
Let It Rain Coffee by Angie Cruz
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: Plus for Latina author, but unfortunately the synopsis seemed too chick-lit for me. I just don’t do happy books well, apparently.
- Keep or Delete: Delete
Blindsighted by Karin Slaughter
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: Serial killer. Cops try to find him. Victim’s family wants to take justice themselves. Sign me up please, ma’am.
- Keep or Delete: Keep.
Meet Me at Emotional Baggage Claim by Lisa Scottoline
- Date Added: June 27, 2015
- Thoughts: Ok, there’s a cute dog on the cover so I already feel like this isn’t for me. I’m not a cute-dog-on-the-cover kinda girl. It looks like maybe a chick-lit book of short stories. No thanks.
- Keep or Delete: Delete
Ok, so to recap. I kept 4 books and deleted 6. That brings my TBR to 1970. Making progress, guys!
My most surprising keep was High Water. Based on the cover I thought for sure it’d be a delete. I also learned I’m not into chick lit or happy books, but I’m very into murder. Who knew?!
Until next time…
