Top Ten Books
That Have Been On My TBR
the Longest
TTT for February 6, 2018
I’m simply putting here the 10 oldest books on my Goodreads TBR, we are going back here to June 2011!
Right now, by the way, my TBR is at 1,205 titles…
A nice mix of fiction and nonfiction,
and some are on the list of books I plan to read this year!

Have you read any of these?
Which one is your favorite?
Which book has been the longest on your own TBR?
I tried reading Love in the time of Cholera but I couldn’t!! I loved One Hundred Years of Solitude but I just couldn’t read more than a few pages of this one…. Maybe I’ll try again sometime.

We’ve been on Goodreads about the same amount of time 🙂 I also have a copy of ‘The Thirteenth Tale’ I’ve yet to read. And I’ve considered watching a film of ‘Love In The Time of Cholera’ to grasp what it’s about. Happy reading!

I loved The thirteenth tale, but I understand that, after some years, these super-popular books make you feel a kind of laziness, right? I read it only a few years ago, after all the hype, and it’s worth it.
I know, I should have read IN the time of cholera, but I DON’T like GarcÃa Márquez – One hundred years of solitude was a pain for me, and I discarded the rest of his books because of that.
Well, cheers on getting to read those books – they deserve an opportunity, come on!!
Hugs!
