Back in May, I read a really awesome post by Nessa Luna on her blog October Tune, all about the books she still wanted to read but hadn't gotten to yet. Please check out that fun post here:
50 Books I Still Really Want to Read in My Life – october tune
I was inspired to do something similar here, and although I'm doing it a bit differently than her, I wanted to cover books that have been on my TBR for a long time that I do actually still intend to read (rather than those ones you eventually weed off every few years). If I intend to read the series, I have listed it as the series title, but if I hope to at least read 1 book from the series and go from there, I have just listed the first book for now. So, without further ado, here's my list of 50 books that I'm still excited to get to!

ReplyDeleteI didn't know such a thing existed 👀.
I hope you'll get to read Shadow and Bone and Anne of Green Gables soon! Shadow and Bone is so complex, unique, and completely thrilling. Anne of Green Gables is calming, warm and just so comforting. Both are equally brilliant, haha!
