So I don’t think any of these books will get started before 10th of December, at the very least. I want to make a summary update of this years TBR posts at the end of the year as well, but before that – why don’t I make another TBR with the books I might read between now and next semester start in early january? Take into account that it’s exam season, but it finished up early for me this year. This year I’ve only made two smaller TBR lists Spring TBR! & Queer TBR of June for #PrideLibrary20.

I knew I would have less time, but the actual time I did have to myself, let alone to read for fun, was still so much less than expected. Last year, 2019, I made a TBR for the whole year, with very varying results as I did not take enough into account the fact that I was going to university for the first time, hahha.
