TBR Acrostic: Poetry

I read 41 books in March and my TBR . . . went up by 7, from 265 titles on March 1st to 272 titles on April 1st. That’s not too bad!

I featured ten titles on last month’s acrostic and I read four of them (My Policeman; One Boy, No Water; All the Young Men; Thirsty Mermaids), DNF one of them, and have two others checked out from the library so hopefully I’ll be getting to them shortly!

For this month’s acrostic, I’ve picked POETRY, since April is National Poetry Month. I do have some poetry and novels-in-verse on my TBR, but of course none that fit into the acrostic so this POETRY acrostic consists of six prose titles.

TBR Acrostic: Motivation

I read 40 books in February and my TBR . . . went up by 3, from 262 titles on February 1st to 265 titles on March 1st. That’s not bad! It’s practically staying level.

I featured seven titles on last month’s acrostic and I read three of them (Sasha Masha, Nonbinary Genders, Get a Grip, Vivy Cohen!), DNF another, and have another on hold at the library. That means I did something with five of the seven titles, which is a very high percentage for me!

For this month’s acrostic, I’ve picked MOTIVATION, which has been in short supply for me lately. I am having the hardest time getting anything done, which makes sense given the state of everything, but is frustrating nevertheless.

So, what’s on the list?
