My Current Reads

I have a serious problem!! Since the readathon (#Diverseathon) is over I've noticed lately (the past few months) I haven't been reading as much. I've started many books but nothing seems to stick. Here are the examples: 



Nothing seems work for me in terms of keeping my interest. I have been busy with work and barely have time to post here but I've tried my hardest to read. I'll get excited to read and as much as I push myself I just can't do it. I get roughly 100 pages into a book and then I put it down for one reason or another. Now I'm gonna try and push through all these unfinished books. 


Also, it should be noted that that photo is just the books that I've made some sort of dent in (I'm 50+ pages into the novels).

Reader Problems Tag  ( Source ) 1. You have 20,000 books on your TBR. How in the world do you decide what to read next? I choose what I read next based off two things: priority and feelings. I get ARCs from Netgalley and so if I have an ARC I'll try and read those first because I like to try to read them before they come out. Then if I don't have any or I've already finished the ARCs I'll read whatever I'm in the mood for.  2. You’re halfway through a book and you’re just not loving it. Do you quit or are you committed? I try to push through a book I'm not feeling. I don't like to not finish a book I've started so even if I really am not enjoying it. Then if I don't like after me trying to push through then I will put it back on my TBR shelf.  3. The end of the year is coming and you’re so close, but so far away on your Goodreads reading challenge. Do you try to catch up and how? Well, I haven't had this problem...

#TOMETOPPLE READ-A-THON June 5th 12:00 am - June 19th 11:59 pm Thoughts on Tomes  came up with this read-a-thon. It focuses on big books. Most read-a-thons focus on reading as many books as possible. I have many big books that I want to tackle so when I heard there was going to be a read-a-thon about reading as many pages as you can I wanted in.  WRAP UP: This read-a-thon didn't go as planned. I knew going into it that I would be on vacation the last week of the read-a-thon so I had a plan to read majority of my books the first week. That didn't happen. I did read some but not as much as I like. I had family issues going on that had stopped my reading and once that had settled I was on vacation. Again I read as much as I could. Challenges: Read more than one tome (500+ pages) &  Read an adult novel For these two challenges I read Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon. I started reading this book at the beginning of the month. I made quite a bit...

#DiverseAThon Wrap Up September 12th  (12:00 am) -  September 19 th (11:59 pm) I did better and worse than the last readathon. I didn't finish any books but I started two. I guess that counts for something right? The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater. This is the first book that I tried to read. I only got about 80ish pages into it. Then I got very sick (I still am) and so most of my time was spent either at work feeling like absolute crap or I was home sleeping and trying to get better. It was towards the beginning of the readathon too so it kind of went all down hill from there. But so far I like The Raven Boys . I can't really judge it all that mush since I didn't get very far but I will be finishing it soon.  Every Heart A Doorway by Seanan McGuire. I didn't finish this one either. But this one was different than The Raven Boys . One, it was VERY apparent that this book was a diverse novel. The main character is asexual and we have...
