This one wasn't too hard! I have a TBR stack next to my armchair that exceeds 10 books! So to narrow it down, here are the library books that I need to get to ASAP before my library fines get too ridiculous! (In order by author's last name; not in order of preference.

ReplyDeleteHere are my Top Ten!
What a great list! So refreshing to see such a varied mix of books, not just fiction. Some of the cookery books have got me intrigued (and hungry!) definitely going to check them out.
ReplyDeleteWow, so many different books on your list, Marie! I love the cover of 'A Lifetime of Fiction', it sounds like a great read! :)
ReplyDeleteI like how you have so many different types of books on your list, you make me want to learn how to crochet.

These books are all new to me. Crocheted Animal Hats looks so cute! I may have to get my hands on a copy and whip out my crochet skills.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

I really want to read Laughing at My Nightmare as well!!! Oh, I will have to check out those crochet books, I'm always looking for new ideas! Great list... such a great mix of books!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love that you included all those cookbooks. Because now I'm hungry!! The one with recipes from Grandmothers looks especially good. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Rex Robot Reviews!
"Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson is one of my favourite books.
ReplyDeleteHope it will be the same thing for you !
There's a few here I have got to read too. I also kinda want an animal hat and knit vest now too! ;-) I've only read Speak here, and I loved it. Hope you enjoy all your books!
ReplyDeleteHi Marie! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Wow - it's great to see that you crochet. It's been a while since I've done a crochet project. I'd like to hear how you go with the crochet hats!
ReplyDeleteThere's an eclectic mix there! Libraries are just great and evil in equal measure aren't they? Great for all the books, but evil with the temptation. I hope your fines aren't too bad!

ReplyDeleteGreat looking mish-mash you have going on here!
ReplyDeleteI need to read The Shadow Cabinet, but I was pretty angry with how the second book ended, so it isn't that high on my list. Even though I do want to see what happens. I hope you love all of these!
