Desertorum I finished my Reducing my TBR pile -challenge. So I have now read one book from every page of the TBR self. But the reducing haven´t worked the way I wanted it to work...there are as many books as in the beginning of the year, how is it possible!? ;)

Pink | 5491 comments It looks like you've crossed lots of books off your list. I'm sure my bookshelves multiply without me looking!


message 6: by Brina (new)

Brina Good for you. My TBR pile is about 200 books long. I would look forward to doing something like this next year.


message 7: by Veronique (new)

Veronique | 1154 comments However much I read, there seems to be more and more books around me. They definitely replicate. :0)
Great idea by the way of a book per year of your life. Might do that next year.
