Hello darlings!
Welcome to the #5OnMyTBR series!
What is that?
Simple! Every Monday I (and hopefully you) will be posting about 5 (or your preferred number) books that are on my TBR.
I will be providing prompts but it’s up to you if you want to use them. If you would rather use yours or just post random books from your TBR — that’s fine! Just join the fun!
What do I need to do to join #5OnMyTBR?
Again, simple! On Monday have a post with 5 books on your TBR. Also:
- feel free to use the graphic below
- include the hashtag #5OnMyTBR
- pingback me to the announcement post or my #5OnMyTBR post
- you can also link here so others can easily find the prompts!
Example:
#5OnMyTBR is a bookish meme hosted by E. @ Local Bee Hunter’s Nook and you can learn more about it here or in the post announcing it. It occurs every Monday when we post about 5 books on our TBR.
