Down the TBR Hole #1

Down the TBR Hole was created by Lia from lostinastory.

This weekly meme is to help you get your tbr down to a more manageable number, by going through 10 books from your shelves and deciding if you will really read the book or not, and getting rid of the ones you no longer want to read.

At this moment my Goodreads TBR is at 2,506 and my goal is each week to get rid of at least one book from the list. I will be doing it in groups of 10 meaning this meme will take me quite a while to get through.

The Girl Who Came Home by Hazel Gaynor

I started this one but ended up having to stop for some reason. I do really want to get back to it, as I did enjoy the part that I did read.

The Hotel on Place Vendome by Tilar J. Hazzed

When I first added this book to my tbr I thought it was a fiction novel.About Paris during WWII. After relooking at it, and reading some reviews, I don't think I would enjoy this one.

What I Saw and How I Lied by Judy Blundell

I recently found out that my library has the audiobook for this one and I am on the wait list for it!

Hoping it goes this well next week when we go through another 10 books from my virtual tbr.
