The earlier post about page limits (I can’t remember who posted it!) made me realize something very funny about myself: I would rather read one 1000 page book than a 3 book series that adds up to 1000 pages.

If the subject matter was within the realm of what I find interesting, there is a 10% (maybe) chance I would read the whole trilogy but like a 100% chance I would read the whole book.

And I wonder if this means we can map everyone onto two axes: long and short (vis-à-vis book length) and series vs one-off.

Tag yourself, I’m long one-off (calling this quadrant The Tolstoys). First person to claim each quadrant gets to name it 😏

i wanna know who uses the plan feature on PB (why or why not?) and if you do, do you see yourself actually finishing your books that are on the plan or no?!

currently trying to tackle my physical tbr… that holds over 78 books before my birthday in late august(so i can go on a book shopping spree)! - my friends & boyfriend recommended that i use the plan feature to help with the daunting task. so i mentally organized my books by summer reads vs non summer reads & have owned for a long time vs not. i JUST started using the plan feature this past month, as i just got back into reading after leaving a job that took a lot of my personal time.

here’s how july looked like(very proud of myself as i actually started getting back in the swing of reading around the middle of the month:

(all of these books are on my physical shelf) read, but not on my plan: twisted love (audiobook) caraval (tandem) the lonely hearts book club (audiobook) the deal (finished from april)

read & on my plan: two old men and a baby (physical) harry potter and the chamber of secrets (audiobook) twisted games (audiobook)

currently reading from plan: what the river knows (physical) the eyes are the best part (audiobook)

haven’t read but on plan: wings of starlight no matter what

what do yalls stats look like; when it comes to the PB plan?!🤭 i’m sooo curious!

I have seen almost everyone with so many books in their TBR and i always wonder how people pick their next reads. How do you guys do it? What is your process?
