While I’ve been horrible about actually posting reviews for my TBR Tuesday books, I have slowly but surely been chugging away at them. Many people know that I moderate a few groups on Goodreads and in one of them, the other mods and I came up with the idea of a challenge called Pillaging the Pile – where we would each set a goal for a three month period and see how many books from our TBR we could read in that time. There were two options that people could choose, books that had been on their shelves for more than 6 months, or those that had been there for more than 12 months. I had typically been picking the more than 12 month option, just because I have so many.
Anyways, the most recent iteration of the PtP challenge ended on September 30th, and I thought I would post a quick list of the books that I read during the preceding three month period and my initial thoughts on a few of the books, although you may see a few of them pop up as full reviews later on down the road.

11) Kiss Me Again – Dee Tenorio – bought June 2009 – 8/30/15
12) Nice and Naughty – Jayne Rylon – Bought December 2009 – Finished 9/1/15 (i think this was a reread)
13) The Alchemist – Paulo Coelho – Bought August 2011 – Finished 9/3/15
14) Dark Harvest – Anitra Lynn McLeod – bought December 2011 – Finished 9/7/15
15) Deep in the Woods – Annabel Joseph – Bought November 2010 – Finished 9/7/15
16) Felicity Stripped Bare – Vanessa Jaye – bought August 2009 – Finished 9/11/15

18) Homecoming – Lacey Baker – bought October 2013 – Finished 9/16/15
19) Sacred Revelations – Roxy Harte – bought April 2010 – Finished 9/28/15
so I managed to cull my TBR pile down 19 books in that time period (of course, I probably added equally as many new books…lol). Hopefully, this next three month period will be as productive – I started with a goal of 10 books (which has been my base for the previous sessions, and i typically up it if needed).
