#SundayBlogShare: How My Perfectly Organized TBR Reading Schedule Got Screwed Up

Every month I set out a list of books I want to read by the end of the month. Sometimes I stick to the list, sometimes some of the books end up in the DNF pile, some months I deviate from the schedule altogether, and some months I get surprises. 



This was my TBR List for November:
- Glitter by Aprilynne Pike ✅

- Legacy by Cayla Kluver (DNF)

- Fiendish by Brenna Yovanoff ✅

- The Last Harvest by Kim Liggett (Returned to Library Without Reading)

- Recreated by Colleen Houck (Returned to Library Without Reading)

- The Ravenous by Amy Lukavics (Returned to Library Without Reading)

- Unearthed After Sunset by Lauryn April (Haven't gotten to)

- Legacy by Jesikah Sundin (Haven't gotten to)

So, as you can see I didn't read most of the books I intended to. So how did I get so off-track? Well I tried to flip through some of the books that I got from the library: Legacy, The Last Harvest, Recreated, and The Ravenous but none of them really grabbed me. Then I did a proofing of my print ARC of CurseBreaker, taking my time to hopefully catch any last mistakes and see if there were any changes I wanted to make.


I also got approved for two e-ARCs that I was not expecting: 

Coming May 2018

Coming Feb. 2018

But I couldn't read these right away because I was having trouble with my eyes and needed to get new glasses. Long story short, I got new glasses about a week ago and was able to use my Kindle again but then I found out I got picked for an eARC for the blog tour of...


Which became a priority since it's coming out on December 5th and I'm just finishing it now.

Speaking of December 5th, I remembered that Ever the Brave by Erin Summerill is coming out the same day and I left off at page 66 so I have to get on that PRONTO. 

And to top it off, I was lucky enough to win a copy of The Hazel Wood on Goodreads which comes out the end of January!

So pretty soon, my clean, well-structured TBR schedule became more of one of those conversations where you start on one topic and twenty minutes of rambling later you've off-shot to one hundred other subjects and you have no idea how you got talking about socks when you started off talking about the new season of Stranger Things. Does anyone else have those kind of moments? Or is it just me?
Do you plan out your reading schedule every month? How well do you stick to it? Let me know!
