Thank you to Jill Jemmett at Jill’s Book Blog for her Beat the Backlist 2018 blog post that alerted me to this awesome challenge that is hosted by Austine Decker, the Novelknight book reviewer.
My TBR pile from 2017 is still looking more like a TBR mountain and I still REALLY want to read all of the books!! This challenge looks SUPER easy and do-able. It runs from January 1st, 2018 through December 31st, 2018. That’s right, we’ve got the whole year to accomplish this goal.
The books we read for this challenge have to have a release date prior to 2018. Let’s show the authors and books in our 2017 TBR piles some L-O-V-E!
Join me on this challenge by signing up on the Novelknight Book Reviews site here.
