#sharetheshame #hour30

I missed the official challenge (since I was asleep) but I still wanted to make sure I participated. Now that I‘ve been an official adult for several years, my parents have finally told me I have to get my boxes upon boxes of books out of their house. This one, is one of the oldest I have pulled out so far, I think I‘ve had it since I was 8 years old?? Still haven‘t read it, and really should! #24in48 @24in48

This book has been on my tbr shelf since college in the 90's, early 90's. 😱 Was a late night, fueling up on coffee then getting back to it.

#24in48 #sharetheshame This Taylor Branch trilogy is the most neglected on my shelf. Since this year is the anniversary of a pivotal year in the #CivilRightMovement it might be a great time to read them. #americainthekingyears #partingthewaters #pillaroffire #atcanaansedge #MLK50

I‘ve had this one on my shelves for as long as I can remember. Every time I go through my books I debate getting rid of it, but it always seems to make the cut. Maybe one day I‘ll get to it! #24in48 #sharetheshame #challengepost

missberlyreads 😍 This is one of my all time favorites! 7y
Redy2trvl I was given this for my birthday and told not to read until this winter. My friend said it is a perfect snowstorm book. Well our big snowstorm has come and gone. I don‘t have the heart to tell her this book intimidates the hell out of me!!! 7y
Bkwurm I can't get rid of mine either. It's too harrowing to reread very often, but too good to give away! 7y

sprainedbrain I‘ve had this on my kindle forever. I need to read it! 7y
Bookworm83 @Redy2trvl Me, too! 😳 @Bkwurm Glad to hear it is a good one! @sprainedbrain Maybe a buddy read is in order at some point! 7y
jillannjohn This is one of my faves of all time. 7y
sprainedbrain @Bookworm83 I‘d be down for that! 7y
Tove_Reads Just finished it yesterday. Did a buddy read with @BookwormAHN. I think she‘s still reading. 7y
Graciouswarriorprincess I loved this book so much! I haven‘t read it in years. Maybe time for a reread. 7y
dragondrool To be honest, I've shuffled this one around it's TBR pile for years...way longer than The Book Which Shall Not Be Named. I did start it once. 7y
rwmg I read this back in the 1980s but I'm not sure I would read her now after the sexual abuse allegations from her children. 7y
Bookworm83 @rwmg I didn‘t know that. Thank you for sharing that with me 7y

The Scarlet Letter: a romance | Nathaniel Hawthorne

I think I‘ve owned these for more than 5 year and still haven‘t read them. I just bought them because they were really cheap and they‘re classics. I don‘t know if I‘ll ever get around to reading them (though every time I look at them I think ‘I should really read that‘) but can‘t get rid of them for some reason 🙈 #24in48 #sharetheshame

MemoirsForMe I finally read The Scarlet Letter last year with the @SerialReader and loved it. You may want to try this app. It helped me catch up on my Classics. 7y
Tamra Scarlet Letter is well worth your time! 👍🏾 7y
youneverarrived @UwannaPublishme glad to hear you liked it. I keep putting myself off reading it. I‘ve got the serial reader app but haven‘t finished a book on it yet! 7y
youneverarrived @Tamra that‘s really good to know! 👍 I‘ll hold onto it a bit longer and hopefully one day I‘ll get to it. 7y

I really enjoyed She‘s Come Undone so when this title came out in trade paperback I bought it. That was probably 18-19 years ago? It has sat on my shelves unread ever since.

Clwojick A friend of mine, @Jamiemac1985 always raves about this book, and says it‘s the next book she‘s ever read. 7y
sparingqueen I‘m doing the #ReadHarder challenge and one of the items is to read a selection from Oprah‘s book club. I may finally get this off my TBR list! 7y
Penny_LiteraryHoarders Oh this is one of my all time favourites!! It‘s going to be a mini-series soon too! 7y
Scarlett_ohara I swear it's the best book I read in 2017 and I read like 50 that year. It's amazing. Better than She's come undone. The 900 pages just flew by. I loved it immensely. 7y

I have had this autographed copy since 1995 when I received it as a gift and still haven't managed to fit it onto my reading pile. 😟 #24in48 #sharetheshame #hour30challenge.

elyseh This is probably the funniest entry I've seen! Lol 7y
Stephaniereads1 I love that. My sister is obsessed with mamas family. Lol 7y
JennyBookworm @Stephaniereads1 I'll send it to her! I probably won't be able to fit it in for the next 23 years either. 7y

The summer before my senior year of HS my dad and drove up to Vancouver BC so I could (among other things) go to some bookstores and get some books not available in US (the Internet was still in its infancy at that time, so not really an option - yes I‘m old). I purchased quite a few Courtenay books that trip... and these two are still unread #24in48 #sharetheshame

MayJasper I hope they're great 7y
