Don´t bother denying it. You all have those pesky TBR lists that make your lives a living bookish nightmare. Even Norrie from Reading Under The Blankie calls her TBR pile the Mountain of Doom. That´s exactly what a TBR pile is – A good for nothing pile of books that do nothing but collect dust and cobwebs somewhere in a hidden corner ( or in plain sight ) and makes us feel a special kind of guilt.
The guilt trip our silent companions put us through isn´t pleasant. We keep pacifying our guilt by promising ourselves that we´ll, ONE DAY, reach out for the pile and grab an untouched treasure.
( Insert hysterical laugh )
Yeah…. Good one, right? We all know it´s never going to happen. Even the meme world thinks it´s worthy enough to make fun of.
Which brings me back to this posts topic….
I present you the Top 10 True & Depressing TBR Pile Memes.
Mind you- These memes are spot on true. Let me hear y´all book loving people´s opinions on these… Enjoy.

Then become a sobbing mess because the month has just started and you´re already dirt poor.

OMG I think I actually DO have more books in my physical TBR than food in my fridge… I swear I’m an adult… OK that might be debatable.
Thank you for making me laugh so much I almost spit out my wine. But of course I didn’t because wine is precious.

NEVER (!!) spit out wine! That sh*t´s too expensive to spray all over the place. Lol. We´re adults, for crying out loud ( sometimes… maybe once a month. Or every other blue moon. Lol ) YES! I always say “I´m starving for knowledge and ya can´t find that in the fridge.” I´m so happy you enjoyed this post. ❤

I have a TBR flat… the books are everywhere. Even inside my wardrobe… 😀
