Did you guys like any of these books? Any you think I should have kept?
Out of all of those I would keep Rebel of the Sands – Alwyn Hamilton. I recommend the audiobook.

I really didn´t like The Sun and All Her Flowers so good one taking it of your TBR shelf 😛
I have made a deal with myself. I can only have 10 books on my TBR shelf on Goodreads at one time and they are only books that haven´t been released yet 😛

I actually deleted all of them I had on the list and then re added the 10 of them I most wanted to read 😛

I really need to clear my TBR shelf, too! It’s getting a little bit out of control at this point… I haven’t actually read any of the books on this list, so I can’t say whether or not you made the right choice — but I heard The Sun and Her Flowers was disappointing compared to Milk & Honey

I tried Simon, I couldn’t get past page 15 lol. Maybe one day I’ll just do it but most likely not

I’d recommend keeping Rebel of the Sands! It doesn’t have much hype but it’s a really good series. The Cuckoo’s Calling was just okay though so it’s probably best that you removed it lol.
You’re amazing for having a TBR shelf that’s only around 130! I wish I had that kind of strength. 😫 Last time I checked mine it was well past the 400 mark.

Trust me, mine would be at the 400 mark, just sometimes I forget to press the Want To Read button 😂
