The TBR Tag

I have been tagged by Rachel at A Perfection Called Books to do this tag which basically consists of talking about books we have in our TBR. She and Dana at  Dana Square created this tag. Yay, thanks, girl! (I hope you get the concept of my banner and the tag–books to be reading being in the future and all. You do? Okay.)

How do you keep track of your TBR pile?

Like most people, I use Goodreads. But, sometimes, I like to get all extravagant and make additional paper lists of books I want to read. I still have them, FYI. hehe

Is your TBR mostly print or ebook?

I think mostly print, though I do have many e-books (and e-ARCs) on my tablet (gifted, won or received.) You see, I’m old-fashioned with books and prefer having hardcopies. Confession: I VERY rarely buy e-books (because I have the habit to always delete a book I finish reading on my tablet. Oops! I don’t keep e-ARCs when I finish reading them. :P)

A Book That’s Been On Your TBR List The Longest 

Voilà! I added this book on November 14th 2012, close to when I first joined Goodreads actually. My first ever ”Want to Read” book. I recently discovered that Book Outlet has this series on their web site so I may read it soon. *crossed fingers* It’s a fairy-tale retelling, BTW. ^_^

A Book You Recently Added To Your TBR

That one! And that because of Jessica’s review who convinced me to a point that I want to read it now. Right now. *sigh* This looks like a very unique YA dystopian.

A Book In Your TBR Strictly Because Of Its Beautiful Cover

Oh man, I love this tag. Here you go, see my superficiality:

 Rating: 3.23 out of 5 stars by 1015 readers

BIG SIGH

I actually bought this one as an e-book and now I’m very conflicted. I mean, 3.23 stars!!! I don’t read books that have a lower rating than 3.70 so that is a very grand risk for me. Oh hell, I bought the book, will read it someday just to say that I read it and be cured of my love for the cover. LOL

A Book On Your TBR That You Never Plan on Reading

Porbably won’t read it because the average of ratings is of 3.67 (from 569 readers) But it IS LGBT (lesbian) and that genre is dear to me. Blah, conflicted but, no, I don’t think I’ll ever be in the mood to read this one (because 3.67!!) Actually, I will take it off right now, heheh.

An Unpublished Book On Your TBR That You’re Excited For

Oh, I know the answer!!! I think you already know it as well;

Wait, I didn’t add it! *adds the book on Goodreads* How shameful, but it was always on my mind, so that counts for something, right? I must’ve forgotten to tell you but I also have mental TBR lists, hahaha. True. It’s going to be out on September 9th and I’m so excited!

A Book On Your TBR That Basically Everyone’s Read But You 

Yeaaah:

I know guys, and I will read it someday. Just…not now. (Priority to 2014 published books and ARCs.)

A Book On Your TBR That Everyone Recommends To You

I don’t own this one 😦 but I will buy it for Christmas so I shall read it this year (more like next year…)

A Book On Your TBR That You’re Dying To Read

I would have said Red Queen, as Rachel, but it’s not on my Goodreads TBR so let’s go with:

I want to read it so so bad…but I don’t own this one either. I mean, I do as an e-book but I really wish to read it in hardcopy. Feel like I’d enjoy it more that way and I do want to have it in my library, next to Pride & Prejudice. ^_^

How many books are on your Goodreads TBR shelf?

99! My max is 100 so I don’t get overwhelmed. You understand better now? 😉 LOL
