I love structure...and spreadsheets...and schedules. It gives me peace, knowing what's to come and how to plan. But I've never been a huge TBR reader. And I just realized, in the very short period of time I've been blogging and planning, that TBRs are just really not for me.
Let me be clear, I love adding books to my TBR but stacking books up at the beginning of the month and reading from that stack is what doesn't work for me.
So I'm going to stop setting myself up for failure. This is actually going to be a little more difficult than it probably should be.
So what does that look like to me? I have no idea really
Facts:
- I won't force myself to read something
- I like to discuss what I'm reading
- Do I like book clubs or do I like the idea of them?
- How will I make it through the books that I do have on my shelves if I'm just constantly mood reading?
- If book clubs don't work for me, how will I activily be able to disuss what I'm reading?
This is probably blowing this issue way out of preportion but as an overthinker what can I really expect?
This year I am trying to get back to me. I am an over commiting, people pleaser who sometimes doesn't know how to say no. 🤯 If I feel like I don't have an vaild excuse I will say yes. I read something that really hit me. "Don't say yes if it means telling yourself no."

So what does that have to do with reading? Cookie Jar Book Club might need to be put on the back burner. I am in a Good Reads group that I've enjoyed so far so I'm going to try that out but if it doesn't work then I will leave the group. *sigh* being accountable to yourself is sometimes exhausting.
