TBR Jar Picks for September! | Books w/great first lines and my husband picks a book for me?

[@AnasBookery]

Your semester sounds insane 🥲 if you ever need help with Spanish let me know haha and good luck that sounds exhausting I admire you for taking both Spanish and Japanese together, I am sure you’re gonna kill it! Excited to see your reviews of the books when you finish them!🤍

It is actually getting a bit better as time goes on! A few students in both classes have a much lower level than the class requirements, actually, and since we only move as fast as the slowest, the classes (both of them!) have become quite easy for me 🙏 I just need to stop procrastinating so much and stick to a proper homework schedule and then I'm golden, hahaha Thank you 💜💜💜

[@AnasBookery]

@@RaesReads Oh that’s perfect I am glad they’ve become enjoyable instead of stress inducing haha 🤍

[@Bougie_Nerd]

I totally picked up Lessons In Chemistry thinking it was chick-lit! I was very surprised a quarter of the way through 😅

[@RaesReads]

Haha, it really does throw me for a loop - the cover! How did you like the book? 💜

[@Bougie_Nerd]

@@RaesReads I DNFd after the thing happened. I'll probably go back to reading it because it was good, I just wasn't ready for that kind of story.

[@RaesReads]

@@Bougie_Nerd Oh no, haha. I completely understand if it was the wrong vibe at the time, though. It's good to know that at least you did enjoy what you did read!! ☺

[@ambermashalreads]

You: searching for cool first lines Reddit: oh you want to read a classic?😆 (simple, easy, learn-y indeed🤣)

[@RaesReads]

Seriously, though 😂😂 I like classics _sometimes_ , but my goodness. I went through like 10 different Reddit threads and probably close to 200 first lines and like 85% were classics and 14% were children's books and the measly leftover 1% was miscellaneous 😂

[@ambermashalreads]

@RaesReads maybe it has to do with the crowd on book Reddit? I’m sure there are specific subreddits that are more broad genre wise but I feel like the Reddit book community is just a different crowd😆

[@RaesReads]

So true! Reddit is absolutely a different crowd altogether 😂 I thought it would work in my favor fto find some unique and interesting options, but.... yeah. Hahaha. At least I found a good option eventually!

[@Bougie_Nerd]

Booktube is desensitized to good first lines.

[@RaesReads]

That definitely seems true, yes, haha
