2019 BEAT THE BACKLIST CHALLENGE - MY TBR



     The "BEAT THE BACKLIST" challenge is hosted by Austine of NovelKnight and it focuses on getting us book dragons to not just devour shiny new books but also the older books we added to our evergrowing TBR! This challenge is so perfect for me as I have like more than hundred books that I should have read 2 years ago *sheepish grin* But oh well, isn't that the condition of most of us? No? just me? Okay just pretend guys. 
   
     Anyways, you can find the full details of the challenge here. There's also a photo challenge you can join in and post pictures on ANY platform you want! I'll be using my BOOKSTAGRAM to share the photos (Shameless self-advertising! Go check out my bookstagram! Here is a cookie 🍪) If you're talking about it (the challenge, not my bookstagram) on social media, don't forget to use the hastags #BeatTheBacklist and #BeatTheBacklist2019 

      Here is my tentative TBR for this challenge! I'm hoping to knock off these 20 books from my backlist TBR and hopefully more too! *fingers and toes crossed* Wish me luck! I'll be adding the links to my reviews as I go.
