I haven’t posted a TBR in a long time because I’m very much a mood reader. I never really stick to a TBR, I have a good feeling about this month though. There’s a lot of fantasy on my TBR this month which I haven’t been reading a lot of in a very long time so I’m just going to see how that goes but overall I am pretty excited about the books on my TBR for the month.

This is part 2 of decluttering my Goodreads TBR, which I started last week. I currently have 4137 books on the list, it’s out of control. I wanted to make it more fun to go through the books to remove them, so I decided to use a number generator and scroll to that number book on my Goodreads TBR to decide if I want to keep or remove them. If it’s a book that I own as either a physical copy or eBook, I may choose to read it that month.
Our first number is 200 and the book is… I Wish You All the Best by Mason Deaver. The book follows our main character Ben, who is non binary, a ..read more

I have a shocking amount of books on my Goodreads TBR. Honestly it is completely out of control. I usually add anything that sounds interesting but also any books that I want to look into more, so I’ve accumulated a list of 4147 books. I found that just going through them and removing the ones that don’t interest me was actually really boring and quite overwhelming. I wanted to make it more fun, so the idea is to use a number generator and I’ll scroll to that number on my Goodreads TBR to decide if I want to keep or remove that book. If I land on a book that I own as either a physical copy or ..read more

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these but I’ve recently gotten into listening to Joshua Bassett’s music. Joshua Bassett is an American actor and singer, he is best known for starring in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, which I have not actually watched. So today I’ll be pairing each of his current singles released from 2020-2021 with books that I feel match each of the songs.
DISCLAIMER: All the explanations for these songs are my interpretations/opinions and may differ from the intentions of the artist.
