April ~ 'Spring Clean' ~ read a book that has been on your TBR list for more than a year prior to the date of the challenge (so, anything on your TBR list before 1 April 2024 counts) . . . or level up by reading a book that’s been on your TBR for more than 5 years!

(For those who would like to keep track, a thread for all the year's monthly focus challenges can be found here.)

Christian Fiction with lots of profanity, so many things wrong with this book. I should have DNF’ed after the first few pages.

Sherri, I loved the Widow of Gettysburg!

I'm in

For April I'm reading . It has been on my TBR list for way more than 5 years. I put it on my Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ to-read list in 2016 and I'm sure I got my copy of it before then. Seems like the perfect time to finally read it! :)

love seeing everyone's thoughts and plans for the challenge!

Intend to�.

I really enjoyed the first in the series. Green has a way of showing the everyday people and life during this time period. I also got the next in the series having high hopes of 2 this month lol.

I’m in! I have many options!

I'm in!

Some of the books I plan to read have been on my shelf awhile, just not sure how long they have been there.

I think these have been on my shelf over a year
(4/10-4/17)
(4/27) in my kindle queue since 2020

Your best guess is sufficient, Lauri . . . but as long as they've been on your TBR list (even if that list is only in your head!), for more than a year as of 1 April, they 'count'!

I’m in - just finished the earliest book when first joining Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ:

nice!

Started off strong with this book:
(on my TBR list since 2017!!!)

Score Bonny! There is something so fulfilling about reading one that has been lingering for years.
