Hello guys! Happy Saturday!
Again, another Amazon Freebie batch. It seems like I have added them in a bunch on Goodreads, hey? Let’s see how we do this time around.
How it works:
❤ Go to your Goodreads to-read shelf.
❤ Order on ascending date added.
❤ Take the first 5 (or 10 if you’re feeling adventurous) books.
❤ Read the synopsis of the books.
❤ Decide: keep it or should it go
Here’s the next patch:
➥ Until Tomorrow (Christy and Todd: College Years #1) by Robin Jones Gunn
One part of me is certain that I would have loved this book a few years ago. The same part of me is also certain I won’t like this now.
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ The Legend of Juliet: Part One by Alexandra Lanc
I wanted to read this so bad, but now the series are being discontinued? Not sure if it’s worth bothering then…
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ The End of Summer: Part One by Alex M. Smith
This is a maybe for me, and I am really not sure. What do you guys think?
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ Free Preview of Temptation Island by Victoria Fox
I have given up on reading previews a long time ago. Bye!
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ The Best Beach Reads: free preview of 4 sizzling summer romances by Sarah Morgan
The same applies here. Bye.
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ Lost and Found (Growing Pains, #1) by Willow Summers
I want to read this, but so many reviews keep saying that this book practically finishes with: ”read the next book to find out more”. Have any of you guys read this book? Can you confirm on this?
Verdict: REMOVE ✖
➥ Dixie Rebel by Patricia Rice
A book about a rebel girl, and a story close to mine. I am keeping this.
Verdict: KEEP ☑
➥ Elly in Bloom by Colleen Oakes
Interesting piece, possibly promising. Will keep it for now.
Verdict: KEEP ☑
➥ Dear Bob and Sue by Matt Smith
I really want to read this one, especially because I love books that involve letters / emails / postcards in them. I really enjoy that. And look at that cover. It’s so gorgeous!
Verdict: KEEP ☑
➥ Legacy Rising by Shane Scollins
Mystery one. I’ll keep it! It seems like a short read and something I might enjoy!
Verdict: KEEP ☑
I am only removing 6 books from my TBR this time. We are going strong again!
Well done for removing so many.

I would be interested in Dear Bob too! Perks of being a Wallflower is one of my favorite books and I LOVE the way it was written so I would read anything like that now.
You are ruthless!
Wow, you removed a lot! Better than me!
You got rid of a lot of books this time.
Wow!! You really cleaned up your list this time.
Thank you, xxx
Congrats on cleaning up your list. I have troubles with my TBR list!
I think I would remove The Legend of Juliet since the series is being discontinued…why invest in something that might abruptly end? It’s a difficult decision to make though! I am happy I found you and I appreciate the recommendations. I am always looking for new series and trilogies to read (feels like they last longer). I don’t mean to add to your never ending TBR list (sorry, not sorry! lol) but I have a must read for anyone who loves greek mythology and strong female leads. It’s a part of a trilogy (yipppeee) and it’s called “The Winnowing” by Patrick Garner. Greek Goddesses have to return to America to stop a group of scientists from quite possibly ending the world. It’s like superheroes meet mythology meet fantasy meet historical fiction (if you think mythology counts!). I could not put this book down and have told all of my avid reader friends about it. I hope you will at least check it out – http://www.thewinnowing.website/ – Let me know what you think!
Thank you for the recommendation Amy! x
Happy reading!
Hi Amy,
Pat Garner here, the author of “The Winnowing.” Thanks for the praise. I’m thrilled to report 5-star only reviews to date and great feedback. Glad you liked it. Volume 2 is well on its way–hang in!
