TBR Pile
TBR Reduction
For the first time in ages, I didn’t buy a single book for an entire month. This means I spent S$0 on books in February, which I’m pretty pleased about. I mean, I reached a thousand dollars each of the past four years, so there’s that. I did still haul 8 books, however, thanks to HarperCollins and Pansing Books who sent me a few titles for review. I read nine books from my TBR pile. This means at the end of February, my TBR reduction tally was -5 for 2018.
Book Haul
Hello, I am a big fan of reading. Thank you for sharing review of book. I will surely try all books which you have mention. You blog is very useful for readers. Keep posting.
YAY for cutting down your TBR pile! I always tell myself I’m going to work on mine during the year … and last year, I read the same amount of books I purchased. I will consider that a WIN since I bought/received so many books in 2014 and 2015. Also, I love the Kindle photo you look! I always find it hard to take a picture of my ebooks, but you made it look so good! I tend to read ebooks over physical copies (because it’s easier to read in bed, haha) but I always want to choose a physical book because I like how the cover photographs better! But now I’m going to challenge myself to take photos of my ebooks! :)
