February 2017 Wrap-Up: Books and Reviews

Ye Grande Olde TBR(e) Challenge Update

I started February with 213 unread books sitting around my house. And I ended with … *drumroll* …212! I feel kind of ridiculous continuing to put "review coming soon" on my listings, since I know that "soon" probably means at least another three months, at the outside. This semester is busier than anticipated (aren’t they always?), but I am plugging along, and managing to get at least some reading done, mostly in the form of audiobooks while I walk my dog. And I’m being *very* good about not acquiring books (the guilt of my untouched TBR bookcases is finally starting to get to me, I think), so at least that number is staying under control, even if it’s not going down particularly quickly, either.

…anyways, let’s take a look at the breakdown:

Neutral books – Read, but don’t affect the TBR pile

Audiobooks – Crows & Cards by Joseph Helgerson – Little Women by Louisa May Alcott – Lieutenant Hornblower by C. S. Forester (reviews coming soon)
Read But Not Owned (Graphic Novels) – Sing No Evil by J. P. Ahonen (review coming soon)
Re-Reads – Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal

Changes to the TBR pile

Read from my TBR pile (huzzah!) – Crosstalk by Connie Willis (review coming soon)

Added to my eTBR pile (non-storage-space-related shame!)
– Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman	– King’s Cage by Victoria Aveyard
– Between Shades of Grey by Ruta Sepetys	– Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis by Anne Rice
* 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.
