Because I’m an idiot and buy more books than I read, as
far as I know. I tend to just buy books I want to read instead of picking books
off my shelves. I also get given books, so there are a lot of books. I worry I’m
hoarding, not seriously, but a little. In an attempt to change the insanity, or
at least make myself feel less bad about myself I have decided to participate
in the Mount TBR challenge hosted by My Reader’s Block. The aim of Mount TBR is
to knock books off your TBR and read your own books.
There are different levels of challenge.
Pike’s Peak:
Read 12 books from your TBR pile/s
Mount Blanc: Read
24 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Vancouver:
Read 36 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Ararat: Read
48 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Kilimanjaro:
Read 60 books from your TBR pile/s
El Toro: Read
75 books from your TBR pile/s
Mt. Everest: Read
100 books from your TBR pile/s
Mount Olympus
(Mars): Read 150+ books from your TBR pile/s
I’m attempting to read 70 books this year, so I thought I’d
try to climb Mount Vancouver, which means that I would have to take about half
of the books I read this year from books I already own. I haven’t really made a
decision on which books, because I can’t plan that far ahead. I’m an idiot. I’ll
keep an update going on how I’m doing in my rewind posts every month.
