The Big Chuckles TBR Add-On! #5


OK I'm going to do it! I'm a big brave Chuckles, me!!! 

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be doing a proper search of my e-readers and physical bookshelves to try and locate all the books I have that are not currently on my Goodreads TBR. I suspect there could be hundreds! I will then get them all added to the TBR so I have an accurate number of all the books that I have. I'll be doing a blog post for each pile of additions so I can also showcase some of the things I'm adding, rather than adding them all to my weekend roundup as I've been doing recently.

This is kind of a scary process because I know this will take me way above 1000 books again but I think having an accurate count of what I need to read and having all the books available to count towards Tackling The TBR will be of benefit in the long run. 

Wish me luck, I'm going in!!!

  1. Alien and The Predator would probably be my choice to read first since I love the movies.

  4. I liked the Stephanie Fox series (Borrowed Magic etc). You'll be pleased to hear my biggest complaint was the lack of romance! 😂 It teased so much promise but I got a big fat nothing!
    Ilona Andrews is a massive favourite and the short stories are always fun.

    1. I hope I don't have to skim the Michelle Obama book. I tend to get bored by biographies with a lot about childhood and their grandparent's life! Lots of good sea monsters to look forward to, I agree!

  6. You know I have been considering giving Nightflyers a go and I love the look of The Family. At least you're making good progress adding them!

    1. I love books about twisted families so I have high hopes for that one! I don't really know anything about Nightflyers so I'll be going in blind there.

  8. Whoa, so this is your FIFTH post like this? Were they all this big? If so, I'm surprised your fingers haven't fallen off! :-D
    Off-topic question. with all the book covers you load, are you anywhere near the storage limit that blogger allows? I'm just curious.

    I like this idea of getting a real count for your tbr.

    I read the Child of the Ghosts years ago and never continued the series. I just looked and I gave it 4 stars too, so it is weird why I never continued. Oh well, I don't feel the need to seek them out now :-D

    McClellan's books, the crimson campaign and autumn republic, were good. Very gritty flintlock fantasy. AND he's just wrapped up the sequel trilogy. Did you like the first book and that is why you have these on your tbr?

    1. Yes, seven posts in total all with about 50 to 60 books on it! It took FOREVER to get them done plus all the cross referencing and uploading details to Goodreads but I'm happy to get it done. Now it is pretty much downhill all the way! Hurrah!

      Hmmm, I have no clue what the blogger limit is! That could be a bit of a worry and I think I better check on that right now! I've only read the short stories for the Powder Mage series so far (book one was already marked as want to read on Goodreads, hence adding books two and three this time!) I like the characters and the world so I hope to enjoy that trilogy then maybe go on to the other one!
