November 2017 Wrap-Up: Books and Reading

Ye Grande Olde TBR(e) Challenge Update

I started November with 211 unread books sitting around my house. And I ended with … *drumroll* …210! I had houseguests for a large chunk of the month, and I never get much reading done when I’ve got houseguests – there’s always something else to be doing, or else I feel weird reading (or having my earbuds in for listening) instead of being social. So it was a pretty sparse month, reading-wise. But at least I was good about not acquiring more (physical) books.

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

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

Audiobooks – Locke and Key by Joe Hill (review coming soon)
Re-Reads – Locke & Key Vol. 1: Welcome to Lovecraft by Joe Hill – A Little Princess by Francis Hodgson Burnett

Changes to the TBR pile

Read from my TBR pile (huzzah!) – The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton (review coming soon)

Added to my TBR pile (all-around shame!)
Nothing this month!
Non-TBR acquisitions (storage-space-related shame!)
Nothing this month either!
Added to my eTBR pile (non-storage-space-related shame!)
– The Pearl Thief by Elizabeth Wein	– Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor
– Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel	– Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige
– Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart	* 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.
