Can’t-Wait Wednesday
Hi friends! Welcome to Can't-Wait Wednesday! Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Tessa at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read (generally, books that aren't yet released). It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. Today, I'm going to be talking about Birthday by Meredith Russo. Boyhood meets The Sun Is Also a Star in this unconventional love story about two teens bonded for life when they are born on the same day at the same time by award-winning author Meredith Russo! Two kids, Morgan and Eric, are bonded for life after being born on the same day at the same time. We meet them once a year on their shared birthday as they grow and change: as Eric figures out who he is and how he fits into the world, and as Morgan makes the difficult choice to live as her true self. Over the years, they will drift apart, come together, fight, make up, and break up—and ultimately, realize how inextricably they are a part of each other. I'm sooo excited to get my hands on this book! I just know it is a gem. It sounds so emotional and I know that it will give me all the feels. Also, this is about a trans teen and it is written by an #ownvoices author. I have a feeling that I'm going to love this and it will be an exceptional read. What book or books are on your TBR that are coming out soon that you can't wait to read? Any that you recommend?
Down the TBR Hole #2
Hello all! How are you? How was your weekend? Mine was fine. Nothing too exciting happened, sadly. Anyway, I'm back this fine Monday with another Down The TBR Hole post. Down the TBR hole is a meme created by Lisa at lost in a story that revolves around cleansing your TBR of all those books you’re never going to read and sort through it all to know what’s actually on there. The Rules: Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf. Order on ascending date added. Take the first 5 (or 10 (or even more!) if you’re feeling adventurous) books. Of course, if you do this weekly, you start where you left off the last time. Read the synopses of the books Decide: keep it or should it go? Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill I own a copy of this book and I'm planning on reading it during the fall. Verdict: Keep IT by Stephen King I own this one as well and I plan to get to it during spooky season too (aka September-October). Verdict: Keep Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind, John E. Woods (Translator) I very much want to read this but I'm torn. I am not a huge fan of historical fiction or classics. Verdict: Keep, for now The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde Again, I'm torn. Verdict: Keep, for now The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath Another one that I own Another classic that I haven't read. Why am I like this? Verdict: Keep Well, alright ya'll. That's going to be my five for today? I didn't actually take anything off my TBR list today. Next time should be better, in terms of my TBR list shrinking, maybe. Current TBR number: 343 Books taken off the list today: 0/5 Have you read any of these books? What are thoughts about them? Should I just let go of the idea of reading the classics on the list today? Again, why am I like this?
