Ben Reads Good | Here's my reading pile of shame... which books are on yours? @benreadsgood | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
If you're following along with the Read Good Challenge, you'll know June is Reading Shame Forgiveness Month. It's a chance to read those books that you've been ruminating about and agonising over -- maybe for years -- no questions asked.

To give you some inspiration, I thought I'd share my reading pile of shame, based on some different 'flavours' of shame that you might recognised in your own reading life.

*If you'd like to do this as a tag, there are questions in the pinned comment.* Fancy doing it? Consider yourself tagged!

(Shame about reading is, of course, very silly. This is just a bit of fun!)
