Hello bookworms!!
Sorry todays post is going up way late. I just completely forgot about it. Today I am here with the next installment in my Kindle Klean-Up Challenge that was created by Nina from The Cozy Pages. For those who might not know what this is basically I am going to be going through all of my kindle books and getting rid of the ones I am no longer interested in or didn’t like etc. In each post I will talk about the oldest books on my kindle. I have recently realized if I want to go through all of my ebooks by the end of the year then I am going to have to either talk about more books in each post or do the posts more frequently. Most likely I will do both of these things from here on out. Ok without further delay lets get to the books.
Gansett Island Box Set Books 1-3 by Marie Force
I got the first 3 books in a box set for free in 2016 and I still haven’t read it yet. I went and read the synopsis of the first book and happened to see that this series has over 20 books in it. I do want to keep these though because the first book sounds like it’s going to be good.
Bluegrass State of Mind by Kathleen Brooks
I added this one in 2016 and you guessed it I still haven’t read it. The synopsis sounds like it could be a cute read but I’m going to get rid of this one because I just don’t think I will read it.
Shiri by D.S. Taylor
Another unread 2016 add. I don’t know why I added this one to begin with. Going to get rid of this one.
Hunted by AD Starrling
I added this in 2016 and haven’t read it. The synopsis sounds a little intriguing but I don’t think I will ever read this one so I am going to get rid of it.
Pathfinders by Aidan J. Reid
I added this one in 2016 as well and have yet to read it. While this sounds a little intriguing I really don’t know why I added it. It doesn’t sound like something I would enjoy so I am going to get rid of it.
Kiss of Fire by Rebecca Ethington
I added this one in 2016 as well. I thought I was going to keep this one but after reading the synopsis and a few reviews I think I am just going to get rid of it.
Pieces of Me by Carrigan Richards
I added this in 2016. This sounds like it could be a tough book to read. The synopsis has me intrigued enough to want to read it so I am going to keep this one.
Set Free by Anthony Bidulka
Yay one I got in 2016 that I’ve actually read. So I was going to just get rid of this because I have read it and I didn’t think I would ever reread it but after reading my review of it I have made myself want to reread it because I don’t really remember anything about the book so I am going to keep this one for now.
A Stone in the Sea by A.L. Jackson
I added this one in 2016. I’m a little hesitant to keep this one after reading some reviews but I think I am going to keep it and give it a shot.
Starstruck by Brenda Hiatt
Another one added it 2016 that I have yet to read and I honestly don’t think I will ever read it so I am going to get rid of it.

Another week where I got rid of half and kept half. I am counting the boxed set as 3 different books so I got rid of 6/12 which I am really happy about. Of course I am still up to my usual ways adding more books but whatever lol. Are you participating in this challenge? How are you doing? Do you plan to give this challenge a try?

Great post idea! There are so many Kindle books I’ve added over the years, many of which I don’t recall the reason why they interested me lol.

Thank you Nina for creating the challenge!! I am the same way. I think I added a lot of them just because they were free at the time.

This is such a great idea. I am tempted to do it but I’m honestly scared to figure out how many Kindle books I own lol

Yeah I was the same way but I knew I needed to go through mine to remind me of what I have and to get rid of ones I no longer want and clear out some space. I’m so glad Nina created this challenge.

I was terrified! LOL. But I was curious too as I realised there was way I’d actually want to read some of them. Those tempting freebies….

That’s why I have so many ebooks because I can’t pass up a freebie apparently even if I wasn’t into the book lol.
