New Quick Take episode has dropped, something especially important if you have a large TBR, or hesitate to take on long book series. Or ever try something by an author you've not heard of. Check it out! #TBR #DNF #SFF #Booktube #Fantasy #Scifi https://youtu.be/zvBu19pmvb0

Today's Episode is finally ready, a challenge between Spencer (The Fantasy Files) & Jim, pitching books at each other & landing on 1 that each now MUST read. Come learn about a bunch of books you might add to YOUR TBR. #TBR #SFF #fantasy #SciFi https://youtu.be/nis2Ll7ZEW8

@bjkingape thx for author recommendation. I’m ridiculously backed up with #TBR but this looks very interesting!

The constant need to keep a #TBR is starting to get to me. How in the heck do you prioritise what you want to read!?

New long form episode for you today, as Jim pulls back the curtain behind how he created and manages his TBR list. You may get some ideas - and book suggestions! Possibly some laughs, too. #TBR #fantasy #scifi #ReadingForPleasure https://youtu.be/fuzLbTSJPAA

Went to the store for groceries while my wife is down sick... So she wasn't there to stop me from getting used books at #Oxfam Ellis Peters #Cadfael mysteries and a book of poetry. Woot! #books #TBR #loot #UsedBooks

We've put out some really long episodes. Not today! This one is a short little episode, about 16 minutes, a treasure hunt through Jim's bookshelves. Some surprises were discovered! Come see what we mean! #TBR #Fantasy #SciFi https://youtu.be/5J6UgLcrj1s

I went through my physical books I've purchased over the years that are on my shelves. Found some great books I never got around to reading - added them to the TBR (along with related books, if part of a series). Swelled my TBR up over 1100 books. Sheesh. #TBR #Reading #fantasy #SciFi

I'm a Stephen King fan, but missed many of his later novels. Just added all the missing ones to my TBR. Pushed it to 1,040 books! 😂I'll squeeze King novels in between others I read. Palette cleanser? With King??? First one, later this year: Dolores Claiborne #StephenKing #TBR

As an SFF content creator, I live a constant struggle. I want to read more. I want to create content about what I read. I need to edit & publish what I created. None of these can be done at the same time. Argh!!! I can live with such delightful problems. #TBR #fantasy #Books

@kimlockhartga @bookstodon I have two #TBR book lists: one of c. 200 of books I've acquired and not yet read; the other of books I'd like to read, which is a Really Big Number.

Reading in 2023 is off to a fun start. 6 great reads are already done, and I'm currently reading three more: The Trials of Asmount (Kindle), The Renegades of Pern (physical book), and Unearthed: Zombie Fallout 19 (Audible). Life is good! #TBR #fantasy #FantasyBooks #ReadingForPleasure

Midweek Episode for you today, Jim going through his 100+ 2022 book experiences with hopes to see your TBR gain a few additions, plus a look at what's on the 2023 list. Come see what you can learn! #TBR #fantasy #scifi #FantasyBooks #SciFiBooks https://youtu.be/yhWqQlXVIHk

Just finished reading Making Money by #TerryPratchett - really fun story, with great characters and worldbuilding, and truly excellent critiques of capitalism as expected. Chef’s kiss! Now I just need to get started on the rest of my #TBR…

@verumsolum Reminds me of this piece on @openculture about Umberto Eco on owning books you haven't read https://www.openculture.com/2022/11/the-virtue-of-owning-books-you-havent-read-why-umberto-eco-kept-an-antilibrary.html. #Bookstodon #books #TBR #reading

@chelming ha ha if someone is bored because they're retired, 😀 I'd say that they need more interesting hobbies. Like, obvs, getting through a substantial #tbr pile.

I'm really enjoying the Miéville book I'm reading right now, but everyone talking about Kuang's Babel has me with a serious case of FOMO. It's soaring up the #TBR.

OK, I'm doing this. I'm tackling my TBR pile one book at a time.

The rules I may or may not follow: no buying any more books until I've read everything I physically own. BUT library books are OK, because I said so 😊

I’m nervous because I do not remember all the unread books I own ??? This project might kill me but it will also be fun! Let’s see what books 2011-me bought and immediately forgot about. Let’s see what my taste was like in 2009.
