QUOTE from Babylon’s Ashes by James S A Corey
Hi, lovelies! It’s November and there is so much going on this month and next month. Today starts the Clear Your Shit readathon which is hosted by the wonderful Andee and the equally wonderful Art. They have created such a fun readathon for which you can find all of the details on their Twitter or website. It will run from today until December 27th and the goal is, as the title states, clear your shit. Hopefully, by the end of the readathon, your owned TBR will be down to nothing or almost nothing.
Now, November also means that it’s the first day of #SciFiMonth. I don’t have a specific TBR for the theme, but I did do my best to cram as much science fiction into my TBR prompts as possible. I also have some fun blog posts that I’m really excited to share with you all. So, keep an eye out for those.
One final thing before I share what I’m reading. I’m still doing my best to stick with my TBR jar. So, I have five prompts from that (which you might see the same books for my Clear Your Shit prompts, don’t judge me okay?) I’ll start with those.

That’s all I’ve got for you lovelies today (she says with a straight face after sharing a TBR with 20+ books on it). What will you be reading in November? Are you doing any readathons?
Keep on reading lovelies, Amanda.
Oof that’s alot of books to read in a month- Iknow tight away I would fail this 😅 even for 3 months it wouldn’t be much higher than 12.
Goodluck !! hopefully you’ll enjoy them all xx
(also- im absolutely for reusing the same books whenever you can. makes it easier)
The readathon goes through most of december, too!
Best ive read in a month is 4 so 😅 ahah but been rocking only two lately so .. still just 6/12 ahaha whop..
12 is still amazing! That’s 12 books off your tbr before the end of the year!
That’s a good way to see it, yes! 😜
I hope you have a great reading month!
Thank you! It’s going to be tough since I’m doing NaNoWriMo too, but I’m hoping to make them both work.
Jade City is an all time favorite. Happy reading!
I’m starting it tomorrow! I’m very excited
Good luck with your TBR! I hope you enjoy 😀
Thank you!
Good luck! I’ve been thinking PErsephone station sounded good. I really liked To Be Taught, If Fortunate but then Chambers is always awesome. I read Vandermeer’s latest too but not Borne.
Hope your reads are good!
I just finished Borne and really didn’t like it, sadly. I did love To Be Taught, If Fortunate!!
I just finished his Hummingbird Salamander and didn’t care for it either.
I’m bummed because I liked his Annihilation trilogy and Borne sounded right up my alley.
