OWNtober 2018 – my TBR, my thoughts and my painfully long list of books I should’ve read by now

Hello readers!

Welcome to my most shameful post to date! Kathy from Books and Munches is hosting OWNtober, in which you attempt bravely to tackle your TBR, but with the books you actually own. Yes, that dusty pile of books that keeps getting higher and somehow you never get to see its bottom anymore and now you’re too stressed to actually know how many books the pile (or, let’s face it, pileS) actually has. I’m officially participating this year!

As official things must be, I announced it also on Twitter:

I'm participating!!

Reading your OWN books during OWNtober 2018 https://t.co/l3FADPLgMt via @wordpressdotcom

— Naty's Bookshelf (@natysbookshelf) September 17, 2018

So, buckle up and let’s start with the first part of this challenge… LISTING ALL THE BOOKS YOU OWN AND HAVEN’T READ YET.

I’m so tense for this part, my gosh. By the way, the list might not have series listed together, because I have books kinda everywhere, so I made this list looking through different sections (books I have in my bookshelf, books in my boyfriend’s bookshelves, books from Amazon Kindle, books from Netgalley… you get it)
