1 The Guncle 2 Just for the Summer 3 The Guncle Abroad, The God of the Woods, How you get the Girl 4 not sure 5. Sadly, Divine Rivals. For some reason, I didn’t connect with the characters. 6 The Guncle, I didn’t think I’d like it, picked it up on a whim, and loved it! 7 Steven Rowley 8 Justin from Just for the Summer 9Fern from bookshops and Bonedust. 10 The Guncle 11 Something Wild and Wonderful 12 I’m a library user, but a friend gave me a signed copy of Just for the Summer 13 whatever I want, plus what my booclub reads. Funny story was the first book that I finished in July, and I loved it! My reading is going very well! I’m so happy with my book life this year. I’m on track for my reading goals for the year, but more than that, my average rating so far is 4.41. I hope you get some more five star Reid soon! ☀️🌴🌊🍹

Unfortunately, our family missed pride this year because we all had strep throat. Once we were recovered from that though, we had a great month! I work in schools and I’m off for the summer. I had a visit from one of my college roommates, and my wife threw me a surprise party for my birthday. 🌈🌈🌈🏳️‍🌈

Bought it in gays the word on my trip to london in june without knowing anything about it except that it was one of your favs. from 2023. Absolutely didnt expect the way it went, but totally up my alley. 🫶🏻

Great vlog lovely!! I've been wanting to pick up No Longer Human for a while and I love that edition, but when I opened it there was something about the font I think that made me put it down. I really want to read the Junji Ito version as well, but can't decide if I want to read the original book first 🌈🌈

It’s definitely something where everyone is going to manage differently, i am lucky that reading is one of the things my brain quite often manages to hyperfocus on! But i do find if I’m getting distracted a lot that some things tend to help (it is normally because i am understimulated and looking for more sensory input when sat still!): 1) put on some background music for audio stimulation, 2) pick up a fidget cube for a physical stim, 3) grab a drink or snack for a mouth stim. In addition i always have my phone on silent so notifications don’t distract me! It also varies massively day to day! Sometimes i can read for hours, sometimes 10 minutes is a struggle!

Oh your June looked amazing 😍So many fun events, jealous!! I've been eyeing Experienced for a while and now added both Sunburn and Idlewild to my tbr, maybe I'll have to do a big queer book haul .. (So jealous that you guys have dedicated queer bookstores in the UK, we don't have any here. I've ordered from there once but the import taxes to the EU are a paiiin)

I currently have 79 books on my tbr, and I’m trying to get that down to 50 by the end of the year! My problem is that I am running out of space in my tiny flat… perhaps I need to ship some of the read ones back to my family home 🤔

My TBR is currently at 123 books, including ebooks and audiobooks. I‘m fine with that number as it has decreased by around 10 books compared to the beginning of the year. I love having a variety of books to choose from because I‘m also a mood reader. I always try to read more than I buy and since I‘m at uni that usually works out. I just don‘t have the budget for massive book hauls and that helps 😅😊 Good luck with your challenge!

I started the year off with 78 unread books which for me personally was a lot and stressing me out a bit. So I went on a soft book buying ban and focused on reading what I already owned. And it’s somewhat working. I’m down to 45 unread books as of now. While my number of books read is 42. So I’ve obviously been buying some. But I have read most of them right away! So it’s a work in progress 😅

On my TBR are 61 books. 29 are physical books and 31 e-books. 31 of these books are novels and 29 are non fiction. I am trying to bring my TBR to zero but I try to take the pressure out of bringing to zero by reading books in between I already read.

I LOVED balancing the books! So fun to see someone else carrying it forward. My physical TBR is somewhere around 30-40, which is unusually high for me. I have a goal to read around 25 of them this summer, which is going well, except I’m hauling books at the rate I’m reading so the actual amount of books on the TBR isn’t going down 😅

I also love having so many options. My problem is when I hit a months-years long slump and never read any of the books I bought when I was reading consistently. Then when I come out of it, I’m buying/borrowing newer books that caught my attention enough to break out of the slump. I will also never have a zero TBR. Once I read a book I determine if I will unhaul or shelve it. I have to absolutely LOVE it to shelve it. Anything less than “cannot live without”- I unhaul it immediately. So most of my books are unread! I loved the original series, i will be stopping in to check in on your balancing the books journey!

I wish I was better at unhauling read books, I get really hung up on keeping it as a memento of whatever experience I had (unless I hated it!) But definitely feel you, even without a slump, of the new exciting books coming in distracting from those I’ve had for years! But there are sooo many good books on my backlist this is why I am determined to bring down the buying a bit!

I think I had over 500 Kindle books and about 250-300 physical books when I counted at the start of the year. I'm doing one book per day, lots of audiobooks, in order to get my TBR down significantly. So far, so good!

@@bookbrowsingblog thanks! My greatest reading number in past years is about 150, so this is definitely new territory. I stunned myself getting through Jan and Feb with a book per day and figured I'd keep going. It'll be exciting to see how many I knock out of my TBR by year end.
