I had a list for 2015 and was successful in completing most of them. However, this year i didn&#8217;t want to put pressure on myself and just wanted to take my time with the books i read. I wanted to discover stories\u00a0that stayed with me and made me glad that i read them. But underneathall that there was still this huge list of books that i had always wanted to read. There were series i wanted to start and series i needed to complete. There were genres\u00a0that i had not read anything from and wanted to try them.<\/p>\n<p>So from all this came my<strong> ultimate tbr jar.<!--more--><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-665\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/04\/img_20160402_185403.jpg?w=425\" alt=\"IMG_20160402_185403.jpg\" width=\"425\" height=\"318\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Its just an old jar with pictures of tulips on it that i had lying around my house. I wrote\u00a0the names of the books and tasks on colored slips and put in it.Once i&#8217;m done with a slip i paste it in my journal. This jar\u00a0has pretty much everything that i have ever wanted to read and i still put slips in it occasionally. I don&#8217;t have a schedule as to how i use it since i don&#8217;t want too much pressure on my reading so i use it whenever i want to and sometimes the books i read just\u00a0match with the slips. My main goal with this jar is to read more diversely and to bring down my tbr list.<\/p>\n<p>This jar contains a lot of slips so I&#8217;ve put them into categories.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#333399;\">1.Books and Series<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This has unread books and series as well as the ones i want to re-read<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-627 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/books-4\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/books-4-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/books-3-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/books-31-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/books-5\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/books-5-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/books-6\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/books-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/books-3\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/books-3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/boooks\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/boooks-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#333399;\">2.Authors<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This contains new authors i want to try and authors i want to read more from.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-627 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/authors-2-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/authors-21-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/authors-3\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/authors1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#333399;\">3.
