My TBR keeps growing ✨

#target #targetbooks #tbr #tbrlist

4/11 Edited to

Managing a growing TBR (To Be Read) list can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially when it includes such a diverse mix of genres like dark romance, thrillers, rom-coms, and dystopian novels. I've found that organizing my reading goals by theme or author really helps me stay on track and make the most out of my reading time. For instance, the dark romance entries on my TBR, such as "Den of Vipers" by K.A. Knight and "Credence" by Penelope Douglas, offer intense narratives that delve into complex emotional and sometimes morally gray relationships. These books often combine suspense with romance in a way that keeps me hooked until the last page. Similarly, mafia thrillers like "He's the K" by Rebecca JohnPee add an action-packed dimension, exploring dangerous alliances and high-stakes risks that are thrilling to follow. I also appreciate mixing in lighter reads like Adriana Anders’ rom-com about a Dom and submissive who become professional rivals, which adds balance to my reading experience. It’s important to have variety to keep my mood fresh and engaged. Adding mystery and thriller titles such as "The Escape" by Marissa Meyer & Tamara Moss and "Is Dead?" by Katie Bernet brings a puzzle-solving aspect to my list that appeals to my love for suspense and uncovering hidden truths. Plus, dystopian novels like "The Verdant Cage" by Jess Lourey offer thought-provoking scenarios about society and survival, which broaden my perspective. One personal tip I’d share is to use both physical notes or digital apps to rate and track progress for each book. This encourages reflection on what I enjoyed and helps me recommend titles to friends. Overall, my ever-growing TBR is a reflection of my evolving interests, and I find great joy in exploring varied stories and voices. Whether you’re a fan of romance, thrillers, or dystopian tales, curating your own TBR with summaries and ratings can make your reading journey more fulfilling and organized.

December is such a weird time for book releases… the whole publishing industry slows down for the holiday season. This means that most books are published in the beginning of the month. Also so that they’re on the shelves when holiday shopping hits… those lines at the bookstore? Wild. But I will en
