TBR Shame Tag

Hello, lovely people!!

I haven’t had the best time trying to write up a review this week and so you are going to get this. Another freaking tag. I could say sorry but then how many times can I possibly apologise for book tags? Why would I even apologise for book tags, book tags are fun. I like them. I will also stop talking about book tags and get on with the tag.

So, TBR Shame, I chose a winner this time because really, who doesn’t want to be judged for the number of unread books they have on their actual bookshelves? I am going to be slightly ashamed but also not? Whoever created this tag was either a brilliant person or a cruel one or maybe both. Who knows? Ashwini certainly doesn’t.

So, here’s my actual unread TBR list (I have also included ebooks because clearly I need to be held accounted for my sins) :

I think that’s about it? I might have to actually dig up my iPad from my bed and see if I have covered everything but I am almost afraid to. I mean, it’s already far more than I thought it would be and I am not sure I am strong enough see more books on this list than the ones already on it. I just did the math and it’s 50 unread books. FIFTY!!!! I think that’s where my limit is, I don’t wanna know if there’s more.

Also this gave me another idea. I feel like I shouldn’t buy new books till I have at least read five books off of this list. I am saying five but logic says ten, I clearly am not going for logic here. Who do you think I am anyway?

I tag anyone who’s ready to brave this. I wouldn’t want to just go and attack people like this. If you wanna do it, go ahead. Pain is your thing, I get it.
