The Backlist Reader Challenge 2024

Is your TBR list a mile long?

Are your unread books filling your shelves and piling up on the floor?

Then The Backlist Reader Challenge is for you!

Hosted by The Bookwyrm’s Hoard
Dates of Challenge: January 1, 2024 – December 31, 2024
Challenge Sign-Up/Details: Click Here

#BacklistReader 

Rule #1 – Books have to be published before 2023 AND they must already be on your TBR list or pile.
Rule #2 – No Re-Reads : Compromise: you can only count a book you have read before IF (a) you haven’t read the book in the past 10 years, AND (b) you can’t remember much about it. 

I am going to set a goal of 15 backlist books. Hopefully I can read more. I’ll track them here.

Books from the Backlog

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks.

This week’s neglected book is………….

352 pages, Kindle Edition

Published August 21, 2018

About The Book

New York Times best-selling author releases her first southern novel, a Steel Magnolias-meets-Sweet Home Alabama story set on St. Simons Island.

After losing two loved ones in a devastating tornado and suffering a head injury, Tara Abbott flees to St. Simons Island, where her disorientation causes the lines between imagination and reality, past and present to blur.

There she encounters island residents Julep Burnside, Luella Ward, Sue Beth Manning, and Dell Calhoun–The Glynn Girls–who have been friends since Bible camp, forty years earlier. When Julep’s son Gavin identifies a troubled soul in need of help, can the Glynn Girls guide Tara back to herself?

Why did I add As the Tide Comes in to my shelf?

Cindy Woodsmall is one of the authors that I try to read all of her books and though I hadn’t heard of this book before I bought it, I do look forward to reading it.

What about you? Would you read this book?

Have a great day.
