 💫 Hi guys, I hope you’re having a beautiful day! Before starting, I would love to thank for all the good birthday wishes that I’ve received, they make me feel so loved, lucky and happy, really THANK YOU!. I spent the day with my family, my friends, and my boyfriend so it was great.
Well so, you already know that we have finished a challenge the previous Sunday, which was the “ABC Book Challenge”, and it was a lot of fun so I didn’t want to stop uploading a post on Sundays. There’s something about doing it that feels super homely and informal, so I love it, and I want to continue spending this day talking about books with you. So I was thinking about what I could do when I started seeing this weekly meme everywhere! and I thought it was perfect since I urgently need to clean my TBR, so “Down the TBR Hole”, will help me to get rid of those books that I’m not interested in anymore and it will also be perfect for you to help me to decide.

Some of the blogs where I’ve seen this meme: The Uncharted Word || Lost In A Story || Zezee with Books || For The Love Of Books || Bookslovereaders ||

So, the plan is to upload this meme every week where I’ll show you 5 books of which I’ll choose which one I’ll keep or get rid of. I want to make this weekly meme as interactive as possible, so I’ll be consulting a lot with you, to decide what to do. There will be those books which I’ll be interested in (Keep), those which I’ll not be interested in anymore (GO) and those which I’ll not be sure about, and with those I’ll need your help, so please let me know all your thoughts in the comments and I’ll be able to take my decision and let you know in the next post.
I hope I’ve been clear, but in any case, you’ll understand it better once I start doing it, so without more further ado, Let’s Start!!. I’m SO excited! 💫 

Rules

 💫 Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf.

 💫 Order on ascending date added.

 💫 Take the first 5 (or 10 (or even more!) if you’re feeling adventurous) books. Of course, if you do this weekly, you start where you left off the last time.

 💫 Read the synopses of the books

 💫 Decide: keep it or should it go?

☕️ #1 – The Kiss of Deception (The Remnant Chronicles #1) by Mary E. Pearson

|| Goodreads ||

I don’t have to think about this one, it’s in my TBR for this year, so surely I’ll be reading it soon, or I hope so. It sounds INCREDIBLE, besides I feel that I love it, I haven’t heard anything but amazing things about this series. Also, the author has released a new book in the same universe, so if I like this one, I can have a lot more to read, that’s exciting.

 💫 KEEP 💫

☕️ #2 – Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass #1) by Sarah J. Maas 

|| Goodreads ||

Honestly, I have my restrictions about this book, the fact that the HYPE is HUGE, it makes me nervous, but at the same time, I’m really curious to know what this book has that makes everyone so crazy about it. I’ve heard a lot of things, I’ve heard that it’s good but I’ve also heard that it’s very cliché, but I want to try it by myself to see what happened to me, I feel a lot of curiosity

☕️ #3 – Confess by Colleen Hoover

|| Goodreads ||

I know you either love Colleen’s books or you hate them and I respect that. Personally, I LOVE her books and she’s one of my first authors so I keep a very special place in my heart for her books. I also know that this book was adapted to a TV series or a movie, I’m not sure, so I HAVE TO READ IT!. It’s one of the few that I haven’t yet read by her, so I’m excited to try it, although I know I have to be prepared myself to do it, this books always destroy me

 💫 KEEP 💫

☕️ #4 – Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys

|| Goodreads ||

I’ve had this book forever!, and the truth is that it sounds very good, heartbreaking and moving, but I’m not entirely sure, because historical fiction is a genre that it’s really hard for me to get into, but one that I want to try more, so I’ll let you decide for me this time. Let me know in the comments if you have read this book and what do you think about it? I’m like a 50/50 about it, so I’ll decide in the next post!

 💫 MAYBE?💫

☕️ #5 – The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater

|| Goodreads ||

This book sounds very unique, the synopsis is quite vague, but I really like the author so I want to try it. Also, I think it has some mythology happening and you know that is my debility. I also know that many people love the characters and I’m all for some good characters so this one will stay where it is

 💫 KEEP 💫 

Guys, I hope you enjoyed it! and you know that I want to know everything you think about all these books, so let me know in the comments!! 💕

  1. This tag is literally next up on my list! I need major help cleaning up my TBR list lol
    Throne of Glass is a good read (IMO of course). Many people are calling it cliche but I didn’t think it was more cliche than many other fantasy books that have come out. I feel like people forget that all Fantasy characters follow the same Journey when you strip down the layers, and Sarah J Maas did a good job in adding some different elements in an otherwise reiterated tale. I do have to say the series does get better beyond the first book.

    Kiss of deception and Confess are also on my TBR list ever since….a while xD I always mean to get back to them but….being addicted to reading seems to prevent that. I feel like if I’m not holding it in my hands, it usually gets left in my TBR which is a habit I need to break.

    Like always, Great tag!

    • I can’t wait for you to do the tag as well! It will surely help you to clean your TBR 😊

      I want to try Throne of Glass, because I’ve also heard many insightful things from the saga in general, but also because I want to have my own opinion about it, maybe I’ll read the first book and then decide if I want to continue with the other books or not, but it’s great to know that it improves as the story progresses 😄

      I understand what you say!, I need to start deciding if I’ll finally read some of these books or maybe it’s time to get rid of them, the struggle is real 😫

      I’m glad you liked the post, honey! 💕

  4. Such a good idea! I really want to read Kiss of Deception but I need to get it first – it does sound amazing and I’ve heard such good things about it. I’ve read and love the Throne of Glass series, however I personally feel it changes a little when it gets to the fifth book (her writing style changes a bit) and I didn’t love the last two books as much as I loved the others, but it’s such a fantastic series – definitely read it!!!

    • I’m so happy that you liked the idea, I think it would be fun to be able to talk a little about my TBR’s books and start cleaning it because it’s getting ridiculous 😅
      I’ve heard so many good things about The Kiss of Deception too! I hope we enjoy it once we read it 😊
      It’s great to know that you’ve enjoyed most of the Throne of Glass books, I’ll try soon with the first one and see how I feel about it
      I hope you’re enjoying your readings this month! 💕

  12. Thanks for the shout out. This meme certainly helps to clean up the TBR. I use it to clean up my virtual TBR on Goodreads. It’s really hard for me to get rid of books so am unable to use it for my physical TBR. Good luck with it.

  15. As someone who’s read the entirety of the ToG series, don’t waste your time. Characterization-wise, it’s a mess, and also, narrative consistency, what’s that? Calling it full of cliches is being generous, and I wish that was its only problem, but since it’s not, I’m left with very few fond memories of this series. The only reason I stuck around was because I had to know how it ends, and yeah… Not worth the time investment. But otherwise, this is a good list. I’ll be interested to see what you think about The Kiss of Deception.

    • I’m so happy that you share your opinion about the TOG series! 💕. So far almost all the comments have been positive so a part of me really needed to hear another kind of opinion.
      I think what I’ll be doing will be trying the first book since I already own it, and then I’ll see how I feel about, even so, I’ll don’t force myself to read the whole book if I don’t feel I fully enjoy it, you know? 😊
      And super excited about The Kiss of Deception, it sounds like something I’ll love 😍

  17. I really enjoyed between shades of gray and definitely recommend it. I really learned something from that book, which is something that historical fiction can do very well. It is hard to read at times, but gives a bit more different perspective on another country during WWII 🙂 I do also want to listen to the audio book of the Scorpio Races since some of my co-workers love it. I’m so glad you’re participating Sofii 😀

  19. Thank you so much for the reminder that I once did this tag! I completely fell out of the habit and now my TBR’s a mess again. I’ll have to start this one up again. I’m so glad you’re taking part in it as well! Isn’t it so helpful? And I agree with all your choices. Kiss of Deception is also on my list and the premise sounds too good to pass up. And 1000x yes to keeping The Scorpio Races. That was the book that made me fall in love with Maggie Stiefvater. It’s actually one of my favorite books! So I hope that you like it if you ever get around to it. As for Throne of Glass, I’d give it a try, if only to see if it jives with you. I didn’t much like it but the second book is MUCH better. I’m still a little nervous about reading the rest of the series as I’ve heard some mixed reviews too but it doesn’t hurt to try, I guess? Anyways, wonderful post!! ❤ 😀

    • YES!, You should start it again, I’d love to see your post 💞
      I’m so happy to know that The Scorpio Races is one of your favorites! that makes me feel even more excited to read it soon 😍
      Oh, I’ve heard so many mixed things about Throne of Glass, one part of me is terrified but the other is full of curiosity, so I’ll see how I feel *crossed fingers*
      Thank you SO much, honey! I hope you have an INCREDIBLE reading month ❤️
