Feature and Follow #19

Alison Can Read Feature & Follow


 
Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee's View.
 
This weeks featured bloggers are The Darling Bookworm and My Expanding Bookshelf!
 
This Weeks Question:
How many books do you have on your TBR list?
 
Cue awkward, embarrassing giggle. I've been looking through everyone else's FF, and it looks like mine is A LOT bigger than there's. I do want to add that when I started my GoodReads account, I was a lot more into contemporary stuff than I am now. So I have a lot of that genre in there and I will likely never read those books. My read shelf is over 400, so that makes me feel a little better.
So here it is, my TBR size: 2,522.
**I've since started cleaning my list. I've removed over 600 so it's below 1,900 and I'm still cleaning!
I want to one day go through that list and remove all the books that I don't think that I will ever read. I also have a bunch of manga in there, which I can usually read pretty quickly.
Don't make me feel too bad, I already feel really embarrassed sharing this number?
 
What's your TBR list length?

  2. This is a really great idea. We always talk about our massive list, but I don't think I've ever thought to count mine. Great post! Hugs..www.intheknowwithro.blogspot.com

  3. Aww don't feel embarrassed! It's so easy to add books to the list. I hope you feel better about it once you clean it out! I always love doing that :)

  5. That is a lot. But, I'm sure that one day my TBR will be in the thousands too.

  7. Ah yes, that is a lot! And manga and graphic novels are breezy reads! I know I have at least 2--I don't read much, really just ones that are based off of books I've read! lol--and then there are novellas in the number too. Not too many. And some are just shorter novels in general that were self published. But yeah...still a lot. Well, not so much a lot compared to your number! LOL!

    Here's my Follow Friday

    Have a GREAT day!

  8. I wouldn't worry about the large number. At least you won't run out of books to read. :)

  9. I did a big clean up on my Goodreads TBR list at the beginning of the year. I have to admit that it felt pretty nice to clean my self. Thank you for stopping by. :)

  13. We all just need to get together and clean out our TBR list on Goodreads and make a big party out of it! Old Follower!

  14. Wow, yours is even longer than mine!
    Let's live a life where we do nothing else than reading!

  15. That's a lot of books! But, if you don't own them already, I think it's okay. I could probably come up with a list approaching that if I tried. I don't put too many books on my TBR shelves unless I own them. I physically own nearly 400 books that I still need to read though. And I keep buying more! It's sad. :P

    My FF!

  16. Oh my god! I'm so glad I don't have a TBR list your size. I think I'd have a breakdown! Good luck with the clear out.

    Thanks for visiting.
