Hi there! If you’re a reader, you are probably familiar with a To Be Read list or a TBR list. You may also know this little-known fact about TBR lists: they’re never-ending! That’s right, I swear a miracle would have to occur before my TBR list gets below 15 books. Most of the recommendations for my TBR come from TikTok or personal recs, but a few are ones I randomly saw on a friend’s bookshelf or the bookstore. Feel free to search for reviews or summaries for anything that looks interesting. I’ll update each time I read a book and can finally cross it off the list!
