Wow. This is quite the TBR list. I shudder to think what mine would look like if I ever typed it out. Great organization! (And some tempting items to add to my list.)
ReplyDeleteWow! You've got to be the only person I know with a longer TBR list than me!
ReplyDeleteI love Lisa Samson! I reviewed The Living End on my Good Reads blog:
http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/lcourtneymom/741184/
I look forward to reading some of your reviews on these.
wow that is a great looking list! Thanks for all the link love (hope you love those books as I did)...I should mention, however, that I did not read the Wharton book (Glimpses of the Moon) and that link goes to Adichie's Half Of a Yellow Sun :)
ReplyDeleteMy TBR list is MUCH longer and it doesn't even have every book I've been interested in reading on it. I don't know why I bother, I just keep reading review books and library books I pick up while I'm there. I never put my TBR books on hold.
ReplyDeleteIf I study this list too long, mine will grow exponentially . . sigh. . .
ReplyDeleteI reviewed Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet here - http://www.andilit.com/?p=465. Thanks.

Just visited your reading blog. This is an incredible list. I am a nonfiction reader and there are a few on your list I read and thought worth commenting on.
ReplyDeleteMarley and Me - This was a sweet story that speaks to the relationship that can form with our pets. This dog is a kook.
Left to Tell - This book was incredibly hard to read because it was just so heartwrenching and filled with horror that what you are reading is real. I was very inspired by her story and what the Lord did in her heart during her harrowing time during the massacre.
Same Kind of Different As Me - I am just finishing this book now and I have been very pleasantly surprised. I hadn't heard much about it but it intrigued me. I love the way the story is written; one chapter is from the art dealer's perspective, the next chapter is from the homeless man's perspective and it rotates the entire book. It is an incredible story. I had no idea it had a spiritual focus but it is incredible what the Lord does in and through these characters.
The interesting thing is, these last two books both made me cry. I can't say that about many books but these two were incredibly moving.
Best wishes with your list! It's inspiring.
