I've been on here since July 2011 so I've had almost 7 years to add my books. If you want any suggestions though I'll be glad to help! :P
I am always up for any book recs as long as they’re fantasy! 😁
Felicia wrote: "I am always up for any book recs as long as they’re fantasy! 😁"That's pretty much all I read! lol.
I recommend Maria V. Snyder's series. Particularly
I really need to get to reading The Jewel and Graceling 😅
RainySun wrote: "I really need to get to reading The Jewel and Graceling 😅"I need to finish both series. I've read all of The Lone City but The Black Key and I just need to read Bitterblue for Graceling Realm. ^-^

I took it from there. lol. If you ever don't have anything on your TBR. I can give you recommendations from my shelves. ^-^
Omgosh. I have about 50 books that I own that I need to read. And I just keep buying more. I am so bad. Lol.
Felicia wrote: "Omgosh. I have about 50 books that I own that I need to read. And I just keep buying more. I am so bad. Lol."I own about 2,500 books and I think I've only read about 750 of those. O.o I really need to get a handle on them!
OMG! You would make my book collection cry and wimper in a corner! Lmao. I have about 200. And they're all beautifully displayed on multiple book shelves! Lol. :D Only between 40-50 I haven't read.

I have 9 full sized book shelves and 2 more half book shelves and they are bursting with books. :S
Woot, I have a lot that I can use for this challenge but I made a shelf of actual books I own (physical & kindle) just for the ones with the extra points: read a new release book (Jan-March 2018) & read a book released in the months January - March (any year). Lol. I'm trying to be prepared instead of just winging it hahahttps://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
Books I'm for sure reading:
Jan:
Feb:
Good idea, Jenn!I see Carve the Mark on your shelf. I'm interested in buddy reading that, if you want. February or March might be better for me, because I think I already have several planned in January.

Yes I would love to buddy read! I dot have any planned for next year yet so I'm completely open.
Awesome! Let's say February 10th, then? (This is to make sure I'm finished with books I'm beginning at the end of January.)

Salha, do you want to buddy Between Shades of Gray together for this? I've only read a little and probably won't finish before the end of the year, so I could wait.

I don't understand tags or categories lol

Do you decide or is there a way to browse them??

We only decide if the book has enough of the chosen tags or is mainly the genre mentioned.
Genre or tags?
