Thanks!
The theme for April 1st - June 30th is the 5 oldest books on your TBR.

Tori wrote: "April 1 - June 305 oldest books on your TBR"
This is probably a stupid question but does it mean the oldest date published or books that have been on my shelves the longest? :)
Janice - Either is fine!
This theme is the one theme we do every year and I think most of us choose to read the ones that have been on our shelves the longest. But that doesn't mean you have to. If you are feeling more motivated to read the oldest publication dates then go for it!

Tori wrote: "The Theme for July 1st - September 30th is One Word Title."Hello, I think this might sound silly, but are we allowed to "shift" books across themes? For example, I was planning to read Frankenstein for Apr to June, but I couldn't finish it. So am I allowed to read it for the July to Sep theme, since it fits the one word title criteria?
4th quarters theme is...5 newest books on your TBR....We do the oldest books on our list every year, so let's do the newest this time! You can interpret this prompt anyway you want.
