Down the TBR hole is a meme hosted by Lia @Lost in a story and its all about getting rid of books on your TBR shelf from books you’re never going to read and see what is actually there!
The rules:
- Go to your want to read shelf on GoodReads
- Order on ascending date added
- Take the first 5 (or more) books.
- Read the synopsis of the books
- Decide: keep it or should it go?

An ember in the ashes – Sabaa Tahir
Honestly, I think this was the first time I actually read the summary! But it sounds amazing! And so many people rave about it, I just need to know what that is all about.
Verdict: KEEP

Animal Farm – George Orwell
Again this book receives so much attention, I just want to know why. But I’m not sure if I will get to it soon..
Verdict: KEEP (for some day)

The book thief – Markus Zusak
Another book with lots of attention.. But honestly I have no interest in this at all.. I just felt like I ‘had’ to read it. So I’m going to be honest with myself and remove it!
Verdict: GO

The night circus – Erin Morgenstern
Actually I wanted to remove this one, but after reading the summary, it does sound kinda interesting! It also depends on how romance-heavy this book is!
Verdict: KEEP for now

Walk on earth a stranger – Rae carson
It sounds really cool! I read another of her trilogies which I also enjoyed.
Verdict: KEEP

Hunted – Meagan Spooner
I’m so excited for this one. There is no doubt about this! I’m actually planning on reading this in April (spoiler!)
Verdict: KEEP
Okay this was actually harder then I thought. Every time I read posts like this I’m like ‘why do they barely remove anything’, now I know. It’s hard!
Come talk to me!
Do you agree with me decisions?
I hope you like Hunted!! I finally read it in February and I liked it.
Yeah I hope so too ☺️
I can’t comment on the others, but I had The Night Circus on my nightstand for over two years, and never read more than ten pages – but that’s just me. I finally donated it to the local library sale.
I loved An Ember in the Ashes, and 1984 is such an interesting read! Some great choices on this list 😀
Thanks ☺️
