August TBR | 2020

This has been an awful couple of months for reading but I’m hoping to pull it all back this month and try and get myself out of this awful slump I’ve been stuck in. So I am planning to be ambitious this month and push forward with some of the books on my never-ending list. You will see a lot of repeats from July but I’m determined to get through them!

If you want to know more about my challenges here are some posts:

• Reading Challenge outline
• Reading Challenge TBR #1
• Reading Challenge TBR #2
• Reading Challenge TBR #3
• Reading Challenge TBR #4

• Bound in Flame

I really need to keep on top of my arcs so I’m going to try and read a few more this month especially as they’re on my Kindle which I seem to read quicker than other books.

• All The Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders – I’m actually really intrigued by this one, I haven’t seen a lot of people talking about it and I’m kind of excited to go in completely blind with no expectations or plan | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book by a trans or nonbinary author |
• Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman – I am a huge fan of Neil Gaiman and I would really like to get to a point where I have read all of his works. So I’m excited that I found a book to fit a prompt.| PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book set in a city that has hosted the Olympics & “N” in A-Z Challenge|
• The False Prince by Jennifer A. Nielsen – This will be a reread for me and I’m kind of excited to see whether I still love it as much as I did back then. | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with a map |
• Heartless by Marissa Meyer – I was a huge fan of The Lunar Chronicles and cannot wait to see if this one meets my expectations. It’s going to be a rollercoaster. | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with the same title as a movie or TV show but is unrelated to it

• This is Going to Hurt by Adam Kay| I have heard a lot about this book and I’m interested to see whether I enjoy it as much as everyone else did. | 52 Books in 52 Weeks Challenge – A book featuring the medical profession
• Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice – I have tried to read this one recently and gave up but I’m determined to give it another go and see if I can get an audiobook for it. | 52 Books in 52 Weeks Challenge – Written in the 1970’s & “I” in A-Z Challenge
• Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone – There has been so much hype surrounding this book and every review I have read says that it is a brilliant read so I am excited to see if I love it! | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with at least a 4 star rating on Goodreads & “J” in A-Z Challenge
• Regretting You by Colleen Hoover – I have heard AMAZING things about this book and I enjoyed the other books I have read by Colleen Hoover so I thought this would be a natural progression | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with a pink cover & 52 Books in 52 Weeks Challenge – Book with romance & “R” in A-Z Challenge

• To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo – This has been on my Kindle for a REALLY long time and I just never picked it up. It’s definitely something I’m interested in reading so I’m hoping I’m going to love it! | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book you picked because the title caught your attention “T” in A-Z Challenge.
• Year One by Nora Roberts – I have seen so many of Nora Roberts books out and about that I thought I should probably see whether they were worth the hype. | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with a bird on the cover & “Y” in A-Z Challenge.
• The Rabbit Girls by Anna Ellory \ There hasn’t been a lot said about this one and I haven’t seen many reviews but I have it on my Kindle so I’m excited to jump in and see if I love it | PopSugar Reading Challenge – A book with a three-word title
• The Cold Dish by Craig Johnson – I’m not sure I’m going to like this one, it’s a genre I have never jumped into but we shall see if it’s a good read or not! |PopSugar Reading Challenge – A Western & “C” in A-Z Challenge & 52 Books in 52 Weeks Challenge – Title beginning with C

• 1984 – I’m actually currently listening to this one and I’m really loving the atmosphere and the way the story is being told. I am struggling a little with the fact that it’s jumping around a little bit but I’m hoping for good things.
• Safe House – I am hoping to finish up with 1984 at the beginning of the month and dive into another creepy thriller type of book and decided on this one.
