The Summer TBR Wipeout is a book reading challenge hosted by The Candid Cover YA Book Blog. It is an encouraging and fun to book event that is very low-key, yet provides a great opportunity to read some of those books we have all been eyeing on our shelves, together.
To make the Summer TBR Wipeout simple and inclusive to everyone, it is open to anyone who wants to participate. You do not have to run a book blog or a website for that matter. All that is required is that you create your posts on some sort of social media website, such as Instagram, Facebook or Tumblr, etc. You can also read backlist books, ARCs, new releases or anything else that has been beckoning you to read it. There will be 4 posts in total that you can link up to here on The Candid Cover. To sweeten the deal, I will also be giving away a book of choice from the Book Depository worth up to $20 CAD. As always the giveaway is open internationally as long as TBD ships to you!
I am always a little bit sad when this challenge ends each year. I really love the freedom of choosing the books that are going to make-up my reading schedule and make a plan from there. It has really taught me that I need to continue reading backlist books more often. I am most thrilled with the fact that I finally completed The Lunar Chronicles because it is one of the most amazing series that I have ever read. Continue reading
We are winding through summer like crazy, but I am so happy because I am really making a dent in my TBR this year. I finally finished reading the Lunar Chronicles, and I am so happy that I did because it is such a fantastic series. I still have a few books to knock off to meet my goals, so I hope that I can continue to stick to my plan. Continue reading

I can’t believe that a whole year has gone by and I am writing up another Summer TBR Wipeout post! It is so exciting to be back at it again this year. I always find it encouraging to do this challenge. It really helps me to not only get control of my TBR, but also keep a routine over the summer. There are a few series and standalone books that I hope to read this year. I hope that I can complete all of these! Continue reading
When I started planning for this challenge, August seemed to be so far away. Well, here we are in the middle of August and this reading challenge is coming to a close! It is a little bitter sweet because I have really enjoyed taking hold of my reading schedule and actually dusting off a few of the books sitting on my physical shelves and reading them. However, I would be lying if I didn’t let you know how excited I am to crack open the stack of books that I have to review in the next few weeks. I suppose it is a way for me to recharge a little bit. I have definitely figured out my reading habits and scheduling backlist books into the schedule is something that I intend to do more often in the upcoming months. Continue reading
