My reading goals for January.
For the most part, this year, I want to focus on reading my shelves, especially my Fairyloot and Illumicrate books and completing series that I have.

We‘re ready to kick off our second year of #ReadOrDonate! Looking forward to clearing some space off my shelves and chipping away at #MountTBR . I‘ll be reading Little Fires Everywhere for January. I think I‘m the only person on the planet who hasn‘t yet read it. 🤪

Can‘t wait to see what everyone else has chosen to read. Tagging those who have expressed interest, but all are welcome. 😃

julieclair @rmaclean4 @BennettBookworm @LeeRHarry @JenReadsAlot @Susanita @Chelsea.Poole Are y‘all up for another year? No pressure, just didn‘t want to overlook you if you were interested. 😘 3d
JenReadsAlot I think I'll pass this year- last year was a huge success for cleaning up my shelves! 3d
BarkingMadRead I‘m in! I am trying to read down my BOTM books this year 🤣 3d

Susanita Thanks for thinking of me! I think I will pass this year. 3d
OriginalCyn620 I‘m in and will post my pick soon! 3d
Booksblanketsandahotbeverage Don‘t worry, I haven‘t read that one either… 🤣 I added a bunch of my books to the bonus spots for the challenge in SG. Still deciding which I‘ll try to tackle this month 😊 3d
PuddleJumper It'll be the 2 fiction picks for #Roll100 I've had them for at least 5 years (probably more) and I don't think they are something I'll enjoy 3d
julieclair @JenReadsAlot Hooray for cleaning up your shelves!! 🏆😃👏 (edited) 3d
julieclair @BarkingMadRead I love that you have a specific focus! 👍 3d
julieclair @Susanita 👍😘 3d
julieclair @OriginalCyn620 Looking forward to seeing what you choose! 3d
julieclair @Booksblanketsandahotbeverage Glad I‘m not alone! 😎 SG is so handy for keeping track of possibilities, isn‘t it? Looking forward to seeing what you choose. 3d
julieclair @PuddleJumper Those sound like ideal candidates! 👍 3d
Teresereading I haven‘t read it either, though it‘s on the pile…. 3d
BethM I don‘t even know what it is lol 3d
TheAromaofBooks I have a pile of Nora Roberts books that I haven't read yet, so I picked one of those!! (Although Litsy won't let me tag it haha - River's End) 3d
gossamerchild One book I've had on my shelf for many years and have yet to crack it open is this one. I have a suspicion I won't finish it, but I need to try and then pass it on if I don't :-) 3d
julieclair @TheBookHippie Oohh… that one looks good… like it could be a contender for #SundayBuddyRead. 3d
julieclair @Teresereading @bethm This is making me feel so much better! 😂 (edited) 3d
julieclair @TheAromaofBooks I have several of hers, too. Not even sure where I acquired them! 3d
TheBookHippie @julieclair initially it was my thought but too many people read it 🤣😬😅 3d
julieclair @gossamerchild Wow, that one looks intense! Best of luck, and if you end up not finishing, no worries. If it frees up space on your shelf by being DNF‘d and donated, it‘s a win! 😉 3d
willaful I picked an oldie from my historical romance pile, The Prince. 3d
TheAromaofBooks @julieclair - She's soooo prolific and even when she's not great she's still pretty readable 😂 so I tend to pick them up secondhand a lot! 3d
julieclair @willaful That one looks like fun escapism! Looking forward to your review. 2d
julieclair @TheAromaofBooks I think I will read her book Jewels in the Sun, #1 in her Irish Trilogy, for this challenge in March. ☘️ 2d
rmaclean4 The Time of the Child. I am halfway through so I think I will make it! 9h
julieclair @rmaclean4 You will definitely make it! 👍 8h

The reasoning offered in this book for the disappearance of Agatha Christie is as good as truth as far as I'm concerned.

And that's a bail! Some interesting stuff, but a lot of stuff so over my head that I was just reading words with no meaning.

But, yay, got a bingo! 😁

TheBookgeekFrau @Andrew65 Yes 😕 But I might go back to it; because what didn't go over my head was really quite interesting 2w

Fun little read about learning that not everything has to be secret because you're fine just the way you are.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (4.25/5)

💛 Hauntingly beautiful, poetic writing
💛 Intriguing studies of isolation, identity, and alienation
💛 Some of the stories had a dystopian, “Twilight Zone“ kind of vibe that I dug
💛 Definitely one to come back to - additional readings will enhance the experience

Finished this over coffee this morning. The characters were not written like themselves. The story was ok, but it was very unstarwarsy.

bookandbedandtea Oh bummer. It was cheap on kindle so I got it but now I don't wanna read it. 4w
TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea Sorry! But I get why this was a one and done author in the series. I can always hear in my head the voices of the characters. But not this time. It was just not good. 4w

Here's the books from your #AuldLangSpine list, @sebrittainclark, that were on #MountTBR already.

I'm trying to decide which book to start with, Cascade Failure (most looking forward to) or Bride (Hazelwood's last few romances have been #MoreMehThanYeah for me).

Guess I can always add a tenth book from the list and roll a D10. 😉

@monalyisha

monalyisha Shark Heart is a strange book but I loved it! 1mo
julesG @monalyisha Strange, you say? Good! 😁 1mo
monalyisha Right? I should have known who I was talking to and said the truth of it: Shark Heart is a strange book AND I loved it. 1mo

Thank you, Sarah. I've already read a few of them, but also saw a lot that are on the higher slopes of #MountTBR (I'll post separately).

Thanks for organising, @monalyisha
