[DISC] Books I Own But Haven’t Read Yet

Hello, lovelies!🦄 I hope everyone is having a wonderful day ♪~ ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ I have wanted to do a fun post about ALL the books I own but haven’t read yet -physical, audio and ebook- and just show them and go over them. I tried making it like a fun game so here it goes ~(˘▾˘~)

First, I would like to say I divide my physical books as follows: on the left shelf are the books I have already read and on the right are the books I need to read.

I will include only those books which I have spend money or were gifted. I will not include Kindle Unlimited books because those are books I can return at any time and I don’t spend money for.

I will not count in the total books I have multiple copies of. Just one of those copies will be valid.

Show me the number of books you own but haven’t read yet

• Physical: 75
• E-Books: 6
• Audiobook: 5

Total: 86 {which wow! I thought it was about 60 no more ಠ╭╮ಠ}

Show me a classic you know you own but won’t read EVER

I have mentioned this before but I own Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. The one I own is part of Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition which is stunning! ⚆ _ ⚆ But, the book is damn depressive, 1304 pages of war, depression and it may include romance but is one I’m not invested in finding.

Show me a book you’re not sure you will like 

I will say Black Orchid by Vaughn C. Hardacker. I started reading this one, I’m actually on page 14. The writing is very old school, very descriptive and since is a thriller/mystery I feel it drags in some parts. But, I’m just into page 14 so maybe it will surprise me!

Show me a book you think will be a 5 star

Ten Things I Hate About the Duke by Loretta Chase. I absolutely LOVED book one and I have high expectations for this one! I’m sure from all the books I haven’t read, this will be top and a 5 star.

Show me a book that was a gift

Red Notice by Bill Browder was gifted about 4 years ago by a coworker who read it and loved it. This is a nonfiction, political, crime/finance book which I started reading one day while I was organizing my books. I didn’t get pass page 2 but the writing was very intriguing and I’m looking forward to read it.

Show me the author you own the most 

Surprisingly and because is a series: The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare. Let’s be honest, I WILL NEVER read these books. I outgrew them and the only reason I have them is because the edition I own costed me a lot of money and is gorgeous. I did read book one, I though Jace was a prepotent, obnoxious idiot, the sibling plot was horrible, and the only thing that kept me going was Simon, Magnus and Alec – when he wasn’t up in Jace’s ass /oops!

Show me the book(s) you have owned for the longest time

On the Way to the Wedding by Julia Quinn since 2015. I love this series but for some reason I don’t know why I haven’t read this one yet. I have read and re-read the other books in this series but not this one – I’ve heard is one of the best. Maybe this year I shall finally read it.

Show me an author you have been looking forward to read

L.M. Montgomery writer of Anne of Green Gables – I absolutely loved the TV show and I want to read the series so much! I hope Gilbert is as lovely as he was on the show.
