October 2015 Monthly Wrap-Up: Books and Reviews
Ye Grande Olde TBR(e) Challenge Update
I started October with 253 unread books sitting around my house. And I ended with … *drumroll* …253! Not too shabby. I didn’t manage to get as much reviewed as I wanted, but I did get to read quite a bit, considering that I spent two long weekends travelling – some reading got done on planes, but not much in between. And I’ve ALSO identified a bunch of books to cull from my TBR pile, and even put them in boxes… but I haven’t gotten the boxes out of the house yet, so technically I still have 253.
…anyways, let’s take a look at the breakdown:

* Pursuant to the discussion on this post, I’ve decided to create an eTBR pile for e-books and audiobooks that I accept for review or for which I actually pay money. I’m not adding them into my total TBR numbers, but I have to fess up about them somewhere. Keeps me honest. |
