Since Sunday was the first of the month, I posted my March TBR instead of the typical Down the TBR post. That inspired me to do something a little different. I am going to go through the rest of the books that I added on June 27, 2015. I’m starting my TBR at 1905. Let’s do this!

Wow. That was A LOT. 34 kept, which was more than I was expecting and 54 deleted. A total of 87 books! I ended my TBR at 1854!!!

So. I deleted Nicholas Sparks. There were a lot of series that just didn’t sound great anymore. Apparently in 2015 I was super into zombies and that’s not really the case for me now, either.

I kept the book by Ann Rule – the OG true crime queen. Same with the mystery by Mary Higgins Clark. OG. I’ve loved her forever. Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas – I’ve read it before. But it’s been a few years and I need to reread to finish the series! I was also excited to see some YA I wanted to keep!

Well, that was that. I feel so much better going through those 87 books!

Did you like this way better, or just doing 10 at a time? Did I make any mistakes? Let me know in the comments below!

Until next time…
