Offloading the TBR #14

For this fortnight I have 100 books which were added between August 2015 and May 2016 (oh god I still have four years’s worth of additions to go through..).

Previously on “Offloading the TBR” -> #1 | #2 | #3 | #4 | #5 | #6 | #7 | #8 | #9 | #10 | #11 | #12 | #13

And now, it’s Culling time!

If you see any books you loved on the cull list and think I should read them, I AM SO SORRY but I can’t! I read through a hundred synopses for this post, and depending on various factors like availability of book, intent to commit to long series, etc – I know I don’t want to read them anymore.

Started with : 1556 books in TBR

Ended with : 1507 books in TBR
