It’s almost time… #ARCApocalypse TBR & reminder!

December 30, 2019

It’s almost time for the ARC Apocalypse readathon to begin! Just in case you missed the original announcement post, you can find it HERE

As an update to the original post, we now have a Discord group! You can join the Discord group HERE (please comment or DM me if the link expires!). You can also Tweet or post to Instagram using the hashtag #ARCApocalypse.

Now, for my ARC Apocalypse TBR…

I wanted to have one static post or page on my blog where I could periodically update my current progress throughout the year. I figure this is the best possible place for it, so I’ll be pinning this page to my menu bar if you’d like to peek back at it later. If you see any titles in the list that you also want to read for ARC Apocalypse and would like to buddy read them, please comment or DM me and we’ll see if we can make it happen! ?

    1. Oh lord – there’s so many !! Totally understandable that you need to write them down ?
      Goodluck with the readathon! May you accomplish your goal of having none left by December 2020 xx

      I love how you devided them by release date/year aswell as the little emoji key! That’s quite Sharp.

      Oooh- I recently bought “No one here is lonely” aswell as “when the stars leads to you”; I also have “Opposite of always” that Spira gifted me for my birthday. (they aren’t arcs though xd — always nice to see some similar books on someone else tbr!)

    1. Umm wow there’s so many!! Good luck with the readathon and I hope you are able to reach your goal of having none left over. I will be sharing my TBR for this in the next few days.

    1. LOVE this goal, list, and the emoji usage! I have so many review copies to get caught up on, ahhh! You’ve got this, I know you’ll blow your goals out of the water this year! <3

    1. I love this idea! This is a great way to keep track and show others your progress. Now you’ve got my wheels turning. Plus, I see some ARCs that I have on here!

    1. Holy crap this TBR is a monster lmao!

      I really enjoyed Seven Deadly Shadows when I read it last month! Looks like we have some February ARCs in common: Ink in Blood and Foul is Fair!

      Happy reading, love!

    1. I just found this post and I’m definitely joining in! My TBR is ridiculous, lol.
      By the way, may I ask how you use emojis in your posts? I’ve been trying to figure out how to do it, but apparently I’m a little too technologically challenged, haha

      1. Yay, welcome!! 😀
        Haha no worries! If you’re on Windows 10, hit the “Windows” key and the period button at the same time and it’ll open an emoji panel. If not, er… ? You could google the emoji you need and copy and paste it in!

Say hello! ♥
