Post by lexifaith »

I have an INSANE amount of books that I have yet to read. It seems that the list will never end because I am always buying books that I want to read. I think I need to go on a book buying ban. But then again, who am I kidding, that will never happen. I am okay with that. 8)

Latest Review: "Heart of Flint" by Scott Stricklen

Post by RussetDivinity »

I have far too many books on my shelf or in my boxes that I either want to get around to or know I never will. Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire is probably the one I'll get to first. Then there are all the books at the library that I need to get around to checking out...

If I can make a quick suggestion, move The Book Thief to the top of your list. It's easily one of my favorite books.

You have some great books on your list. I like your variety. You might also like Lauren Oliver's Delirium series :D I would never make fun of anyone who wants to read no matter what age or language. Happy reading and welcome to a whole new world :D

Some good books there :) I made the mistake of watching Flipped and then I couldn't read the book, lol. Gone Girl was strange but I hated the ending…others are fine with it.

The Giver is a great series :D

I liked These Things Hidden.

You might also like The Lock Artist by Steve Hamilton…I thought it was very good.







As for my own list…well it is also insane and of all different genres. My books to read list will outlive me as I keep adding to it, lol.

If your only 16, you still have plenty of time. That's a good start you have listed. Enjoy!

I've been adding books consistently to my kindle since I got my first one in 2008, I have 1000s now. I usually end up reading something new. I will probably end up being a full time reader once I get to retire, but I will have the most awesome reading library to choose from as well.

I want to live long enough to read all the books on my bookshelf and all the ones I have on my list. If I read a book in three days I should be able to accomplish this by the time I am 102. just saying.
