This doesn't take into account the books I listed in the original post. We cover mysteries, romance, nonfiction, classics, fantasy and beyond! Go us! Though this blog is mostly about writing (and mostly about mysteries), I am always looking for a good book and always interested in what you are reading. Please feel free to share at any time! Happy reading!
(For a great gift for readers/project to do with children, check out today's post at Do Beautiful Things.)
Great list!
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed that busy and active writers read so much. It must be me; I have a stack of books I *hope* to read one day. I'm just not a very good time-manager. I plod. Sigh. Hats off to those who work in all their tasks.
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes Galen.

That's quite a list you got there. It kinda saddens me though. My "to read" list its growing too fast. I'm not able to keep up.
ReplyDeleteIt was a group effort, Karen!
ReplyDeleteGalen- But you are turning out writing! I, sadly, am not.
Jm- Ditto what I just said, and there is always time for reading!
Thanks for compiling this list, Michele; what an assortment of riches! More books for me to discover...which is always good news if I could just find more hours in the day!
ReplyDeleteSelfishly, I'm hoping by this time next year, everyone will be reading a mystery entitled SPY MY SHADOW. Guess I should get my butt in gear for that to be possible!
Elspeth
That's a whole lotta readin'!
ReplyDeleteAnd looking forward to guesting on your blog.
I just love book lists. Too bad there's too many of them for me to read. I need more hours in the day or to be independently wealthy.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is one serious list! Excellent! Although I don't know if I can squeeze any more into my reading list. Perhaps if I cut an hour out of my 6 hour sleep cycle? Hmmm...jut maybe, I might.
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed this! I'm reading The Farseer: Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb at the moment.
ReplyDeleteAwesome list :)
ReplyDeleteElspeth- I'll be one reading that! And I hope you'll include me on your blog tour.
ReplyDeleteDiane- I won't make it through it all, but maybe someone will take on the challenge?
Stephanie- I'm with you. You take more hours and I'll take independently wealthy! :P
Carol- Cutting sleep is always a good idea, right?
Alex- Interesting! I'll add it to the list!
Jemi- DAUNTING list.
What a great list! You've given me some new ones for my TBR list. :)
