I minimalized my Goodreads 'want to read list'👀
Yes. You heard it right. I almost had 400 books on there that I wanted to read! I am going to be honest, this wasn't doing any good for me😅
I felt overwhelmed by all the options, I simply did not know what to buy next and if I bought a new book, it was one I was recently excited for. And thus all those '399' other books were being ignored.
While I was looking through my list, I even found books on there that I entirely forgot I saved it🫣👀
When I decided to delete more than half of my 'want to read list' I chose carefully which books I actually WANTED to read soon-ish. In that case I am actually planning to read the book faster (or I hope😂)
The 'to buy soon-ish' shelf is deleted and everything is back on the original shelf.
With that being said, it's not because a book isn't on my list right now, that I'm not excited to read it.
My goal was 30 books on the list - it's already at 40😅
(So minimum 30 (less is also fine) and maximum 40😉)
Even though I'm focusing on my physical TBR and therefore put myself on a book buying ban (BBB)
I can't wait to buy those new books😁
Which book(s) are you excited to buy next?

Unfortunately I probably have that many that I've bought on sale and are just sitting in my Kindle lonely and forgotten because I feel overwhelmed too if I look through them.
