And as a weiner, I get to read books. Ten actually, to make my goal of 60 this year. Here is the TBR pile for the end of the year:
#1 Drawn Together by ZA Maxfield (A rec from my girl Kerry Freeman)
#2 Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (I lent it to a student cos I knew I wouldn't be able to finish it before NaNo, it's sitting on my shelf at home!)
#3 Linger by Maggie Stiefvater (SWOON SAM!)
#4 Clockwork Angel by Cassie Claire (A former student lent it to me)
#5 Crescendo by Becca Fitzgerald (YAY! PATCH!)
#6 Leaving Gee's Bend by Irene Latham (Anna this better not make me cry!
#7 Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (Nanna THIS better not make me cry!)
#8 Dear sir, I'm yours by Joelly Sue Burkehart (I'm reviewing for her)
#9 Ballad by Maggie Stiefvater (I took a break from it, I have 40 pages left)
#10 On the Road by Jack Kerouac (this is to appease my hubbin and then I can go see the movie with him next year :))
Here's a link to my must-haves for this and next year- BOOKS I WANT SOON
I'm starting with Drawn Together too!
ReplyDeleteI need to make a TBR list, and do it. I read naff all this last year :( Pathetic, really, because the year before I read like 40 books.
Oh Leaving Gee's Bend..GOOD choice! I actually (finally) blogged about it the other day.
ReplyDeleteCatching Fire/Mockingjay/Linger get big YAYs too!
You'll LOVE Drawn Together. It is definitely more than it seems at first glance. And the cover? *sigh* Can't wait to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteYeah! We won! We won! I think I'm going to do NaNoFiMo this month which should help me finish mine. lol ... I just found out about it today.
ReplyDeleteWhats NaNoFiMo?
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming it's National Novel Finishing Month.
ReplyDeleteAnd I started AND finished Drawn Together yesterday. Have you read it yet, Becca?
I haven't found it yet! :( I'm home sick. I just woke up and I might read CF since its here.

ReplyDeleteI have been such a reading slacker! I really need to get on to another book, but I've been taking my time through Catching Fire and doing a lot of betaing.
