For a while now, I’ve been making a list of books that I potentially want to read in the upcoming month. Some months, I do get to a substantial number of them, other times, I go rogue and read everything except what I had planned. But making a list is still a good way to keep track of some of the things I want to get to, especially when I have promised fellow authors and publishers that I will review something with the people who look to me for feedback on good reads.

These are the books I have on my TBR (To Be Read) shelf in January 2019

The red highlights above means I have read that book since creating my TBR list. I will keep updating this post so you can se how I’m doing with this goal as the month progresses. I’ll also link to reviews that I’ve written if you’d like to read my impressions of the books once I finally read them.

What about you? What’s on your reading shelf this month?
