I totally agree about reading what you want to read when you want. It's quite refreshing.Nicole's Novel Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071487616798553517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1863194585372543392.post-36476741784867675562016-03-31T15:20:09.843-04:002016-03-31T15:20:09.843-04:00I love this post!

BUT I'm trying to not make myself crazy with reading before release or out of any sense of obligation. My main goal with reading this year is just to read what I want when I want which, so far, has been good. I've had more books that I skim or don't finish because I'm not feeling them but it's refreshing to see my to read shelves rotating out (not quite at a point where I can say they're emptying . . . yet) and owned books dwindling as I let go of titles that don't work for me. I also definitely do try and want to actively read backlist titles which are often more useful to Librarian Me for reader's advisory. And since backlist covers anything older than 6 months, that's still a huge span of newish and shiny books to check out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
