Last summer, I did a TBR Roundup (and a Haul Roundup, but we’ll talk about that later!) where I evaluated 6 months of TBR posts and made pie charts to show how many of them I actually read. I was originally going to do this every 6 months (which is why today is covering July through December of 2018), but after today’s post, this will become a quarterly post—so expect the next one in April!

Anyways, we’ve got a lotta TBRs to talk about, so let’s jump in!

Overall Results:

Overall, I’m not too proud of my results for this roundup! My last roundup was actually better, with 63% read in their intended month, 15% read later, and 19% left on my TBR (okay, so that last one isn’t much worse right now than it was back then!).
Since I’ll be doing this every 3 months from now on, I think it’ll be easier to remember it and use it to motivate myself to finish my future monthly TBRs! Fingers crossed, anyways.
Keep an eye out next week for the haul roundup version!
