The TBR Tag originated from Dana at Dana Square and Rachel at A Perfection Called Books!
They want to know all about book bloggers wild TBR lists!!!
I was tagged by sweet Jaime at Fic Fare :)
Thank you so much, Jaime!!!
Please stop by and check out Jaime's awesome blog!
HOW DO YOU KEEP TRACK OF YOUR TBR PILE???
Ummm... I kind of don't.
Yes, I use Goodreads and have shelves upon shelves; I always add the books that I buy/receive and divide them up into ARCs, hardcover, ebooks, paperbacks, to-review, etc. But I don't necessarily go back and reference my lists to keep track of them. Also, the only books that I do keep in my TBR piles are books for review. As those review stacks dwindle down, I add in the books I want to read.
I keep these stacks in my bedroom closet and they're stacked as per release month. Books that I really want to read are kept in a stack on my dresser.
IS YOUR TBR MOSTLY PRINT OR E-BOOKS???
Mostly print! I have a ton of ebooks, but "out of sight, out of mind"! Seriously, even with the lists I have made, unless I'm on a blog tour, I always forget about ebooks/eARCs. Plus, my kindle recently broke, so if I want to read an ebook I have to read it on my phone... and that hurts my eyes, lol!

Physical books! Always!!!
HOW DO YOU DETERMINE WHICH BOOK TO READ FIRST???
Well... this is a tricky question!...
My review books take top priority, especially those that I have inquired about, which is not often, so those books always get read first. Of course, they also have to fit my mood...
Next are unsolicited review books. I try to fit as many of those that I can. Again, I don't receive many, so most get read on a timely basis too.
And then, I read the books that I either won in giveaways or purchased. I am a total mood reader and I usually try to read the books that have been released within the same year. This is my biggest pile and always the hardest to choose from.
Lastly, but certainly not least, I try to fit in classics and older books. I wish I had more time for these. Thankfully, this pile isn't too large either... at least, not to me ;)
A BOOK THAT HAS BEEN ON YOUR TBR THE LONGEST???

THE NUMBER OF BOOKS ON MY GOODREADS TBR SHELF...
It says 421 on Goodreads... however, I think that it may be much less than that since I only go by my physical books and I do not have nearly that many in my physical piles. This tag has definitely pointed out that to me that I need to do some much needed cleaning on my Goodreads shelves :)
