August 7, 2020August 4, 2020by amyleighreads2 Comments

Thoughts on Tomes on Booktube announced another round of the Tome Topple! I participated in round 11 and really enjoyed myself so I figure why not try and get through a few more of the tomes on my TBR!! To see the announcement and any information about this readathon click HERE! I am going to pick a tome to correspond to each prompt but I’m not going to pressure myself to complete all of these books.

August TBR

August 3, 2020July 31, 2020by amyleighreads4 Comments

This month I decided I would go back to doing an actual TBR instead of my usual mood reading. I have quite a few library books loaned out that I haven’t had a chance to get to yet, so I though for August I could prioritise them! As somewhat of a completionist I do kind of want to attempt to complete the NEWTS this month quietly as well. And then if I have time after I finish all of those I will definitely be picking books out of my physical TBR which I will also list below.

The Kingdom of Copper by S.A. Chakraborty

To watch the announcement video and hear all the challenges click HERE. I am going to try my best to complete the seven books, but I know there are a couple of books on my TBR that can actually fit multiple prompts so I may end up doubling up on a few… we’ll see how I go!

This month similar to all the previous months this year I am just going to be mood reading and picking up whatever books I feel like reading at the time. This has really been working for me and not allowing me to fall into a slump, so I am just going to continue with what I’ve been doing! There are a couple of readathons that I am thinking about participating in which I may need a dedicated TBR for but for now I will be picking up from all my physical and eBooks I currently have in my collection!

TBR, Top Ten Tuesdays

❄️Winter TBR❄️

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is the books I plan to read this Winter! I’ve gone over my previous seasonal TBR’s and I found I haven’t really been sticking to them a whole lot, I do however have a lot of fun compiling the list of book I am excited to read!
