TOO MUCH TBR • April 2018

Keep ’em short, and I’ll hit my reading goals.

For those who do not know, Too Much TBR is a way to help me see which books I really need to read and tackle them. Is it effective? Perhaps. It helps a lot seeing a visual of the books on my TBR pile.

Let’s discuss what I read last month, and what I’m reading this month!

In March, I wanted to get six books read, and guess what! Four out of the six were read. Wheeee.

I read:

• Dress Like A Woman: Working Women and What They Wore: Gorgeous photos of working women and what they wore.
• Pacifica: Enjoyed the descriptions for this world because that is the world we’re heading into.
• The Price Guide to the Occult: WITCHES. I loved reading about Nor and her mother. It’s messed up.
• Radical Element: 12 Stories of Daredevils, Debutantes, & Other Dauntless Girls: Amazing book. These girls want to do more with their lives, so they break traditions and expectations.

Also a bonus Crypt Quest/Space Battles (Midnight Arcade #1).

I didn’t get to The Tangled Lands or A Possibility of Whales, but I will!

I also read She-Hulk • Vol. 1: Deconstructed, Archival Quality, and Skim. 

• The Oracle Year: Will Dando, a Manhattan bassist, wakes up one day with the power to predict the future. He and his friend set up a site that garners a lot of interest—both in intrigue and enemies. Seems exciting. (Especially since the author is a comic writer.)
• What To Do When I’m Gone: Full of a mother’s advice to her daughter of what to do when she’s gone. I’m so anxious to read this because I never want to think about this but I have to in the event.
• Demi-Gods: A disruptive and disturbing relationship between a girl and her stepbrother.
• Space Opera: I LOVE CATHERYNNE M. VALENTE. “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy meets Eurovision.” YES PLEASE.
• Rise Up, Women!: The Remarkable Lives of the Suffragettes: History about the British Suffragettes.
• Be Prepared: A summer camp memoir about Vera Brosgol going to a Russian summer camp. Oooh.

Note: All these books here do not account for other books that may slip into my TBR list (because mood reading will probably happen) nor of the comics I will be reading. I’m sure I missed other books I want to read this month too, but since I can’t remember, it must not be priority, right? Let’s hope I make a dent in my TBR books for March!

How was your March? Tell me what’s on your April TBR list. Have you read any of the books on my lists? Or are you planning to read them?
