It keeps eternal whisperings around Desolate shores, and with its mighty swell Gluts twice ten thousand Caverns, till the spell Of Hecate leaves them their old shadowy sound.

This is the easy time, there is nothing doing. I have whirled the midwife’s extractor, I have my honey, Six jars of it, Six cat’s eyes in the wine cellar,

Wintering in a dark without window At the heart of the house Next to the last tenant’s rancid jam and the bottles of empty glitters — Sir So-and-so’s gin.

annotating poetry and journaling, what else is new? also, i am immensely enjoying my current reads and coffee to keep me warm.

Welcome to the Third Annual TBR Buster Challenge!

The goal of this challenge is simple: read the books that have been languishing on your TBR lists.  Some of you may have impossibly long TBR lists. Some of you may have a TBR list that only includes a few books. Maybe you have a physical shelf stacked full of books. Or maybe it’s just an amorphous list that lives in some half forgotten corner of your mind. No matter where you fall on this spectrum, this challenge is for you!

The greatest part of this challenge is that it allows you to focus on what YOU want to read. You have the freedom to focus on whatever books you want. In the past, some people have issued their own personal challenges to focus on specific genres or lists of books. Others just plucked the next book that interested them from their shelf. Some people plowed through their lists like they were on a ferocious mission. Others read only a handful of books. This challenge is designed to be flexible!

So why not give it a go? Bust your TBR shelf with me!

The Basics to Get Started

Read a minimum of one book per month that has been languishing on your shelf. Want a more ambitious challenge? How many books do you read per year on average? Try making half of the part of the #tbrbusterchallenge2022. Don’t have time to read one book per month? That’s okay, too! You can pop in and out of this challenge as it fits into your schedule, and everyone will be here to support you :)

Post about the books you read! I am hoping to post mini-reviews every month. Don't like review? No problem!  Do you like taking photos of your books? Post ‘em! Do you like book quotes? Post ‘em! Anything and everything is welcome!

Tag your posts with #bookbanditchallenge and #tbrbusterchallenge2022 so I can see them and show you some love!
