Beyond Excellent, huh? Well I think it just went up to the top of my TBR. :) I've been a bit hesitant to read it, because I wasn't sure how JRW would pull off making Zadist a viable hero. LOL

939365 Audball, same thing happened to be with Z but my god what a book! The emotional highs and lows in that book was amazing. Make sure you're free and don't have to work the next day when you start (lol!)

My TBR list is 427 books, and I own 103 of my TBR pile. LOL I know what you mean about them toppling over! I used to ALWAYS buy every book I wanted to read. But since I have over 400 books that I want to read...I figured I better start utilizing the library! LOL

i love owning them too. my list out of control i think it has like 600 something on there. I really should use a library but im not crazy about time limits or have to re-new them if i have them too long. i did justify buying them by saying i would only use cash and use a coupon! so i buy here and there and when there is a good sale. I do surveys online and get gift cards from them for books too heheehe


message 18: by Nona (new)

1521956 I know how you feel Joy, I try to keep at least under a 100 tbr on my shelves but it is truely hard to do sometimes, my list here doesn't cover half of those I own, over 2/3 are packed away for safe keeping till we buy another house.

LOL I'm still in an apartment, but when I get a house I would love to turn the finished basement into a library! :)



message 20: by Nona (new)

1521956 well I remeber watching old movies and seeing the library as a room with shelves from ceiling to floor displaying books, awards and paintings and with the ladder on rollers, a comfy fireplace and a large chaise or over stuffed chair and ottoman with a reading lamp right by it. I always wanted on of those to call my own, one day I'll have my little version of it.

That was one of the reasons I LOVED beauty and the beast! The gigantic library did it for me! LOL




message 22: by Nona (new)

1521956 yep, minus the talking teacups would be great. By the way I just bought Beauty and Spindle End by Robin McKinley they are both retelling of childhood fairy tales Beauty and the Beast and Sleeping Beauty. They have recieved rave reviews so I'm going to be reading them shortly.


message 23: by stormhawk (new)

2016887 I have 80-some books on my "to read" shelf, everyone is more than welcome to give it a browse. I am equally likely to read a book from that list as I am to find something else, so it's not an entirely reliable TBR list.

I added that book to my TBR list a while ago, and forgot about it! If it's good let me know! :)




message 25: by Rita (new)

Not enough time. On Monday I start working longer hours, and I'm going out this weekend. So I went with Deception. It should be finished by Monday. Then I may read Seekers. Interesting but not in a "will keep me up too late" way.

I don't. I read in the order that I get from the library or depending on my mood.




message 35: by Lauren (new)

790403 i dont read them in order i just read my serieses in order. i try to keep a few series going but sometimes i get to overwhelmed


message 36: by LaTrica (new)

1833981 I read them in the order they're on my bookshelf.


message 37: by Michelle (new)

952810 I don't go any specific order.It's whatever I'm in the mood for, of course if it's a series then I'll read those in order.


message 38: by BonFire (new)

1410516 Even though I have a first ones up shelf, I don't read in any particular order. Basically it depends on what I already own and what I come across in stores, lol.


message 39: by Ellen ♥ (new)

2346659 I would list my TBR list but at the moment there are too many to remember Lol. Just like the fact that I have ten books on my bookshelf that havent been read, and I continue to add more!
=D

1857647 Kenjii wrote: "Do you guys read off your TBR in order?"

Nope. I just look at my to-read shelf and choose something based on the genre I am in the mood for...


message 41: by Kenjii (new)

1125077 Oh ok. My TBR list is basically so I can keep track f the books I have bought and when I need to search them easily for challenges and such. I thought maybe you all had them set up in a certain reading order.

I know some people do that, but since I have over 400 books on my TBR list...LOL It would be too hard to organize it.

message 44: by Jo (new)

2457455 Me too my moods change all the time so its always a last minute decision


message 45: by Lisa Anne (new)

1817266 I don't even necessarily always choose something on my goodreads TBR list. The reason I really keep that is so I don't forget about books that I think sound interesting. But I also only try to add ones that I think I will get around to in my lifetime (haha).


message 47: by Jackie M (new)

2304424 I think this is the order I will be reading but who knows it might change. I'm trying not to buy books and just rely on the library.


Midnight's Daughter-Karen Chance
The Fiery Cross-Diana Gabaldon
Redeeming Love-Francine Rivers
Curse the Dawn-Karen Chance


message 48: by Julie (Mom2lnb) (new)

883725 Normally, I just read by my moods and don't plan my reading in advance, but since I have two books to read for review and am trying to complete a few reading challenge, I made a list for Sept. I plan to read, though not necessarily in this order and time permitting:

Susannah, A Lawyer - From Tragedy to Triumph by Ruth Rymer
The Baby Album by Roz Denny Fox
The Indiscretion by Judith Ivory
Zack by Cheyenne McCray
The Raven Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt
Kiss of Heat by Lora Leigh


message 49: by new_user (new)

1365355 Julie, is this your first from Elizabeth Hoyt?


message 50: by Julie (Mom2lnb) (new)

883725 Yes, it will be my first Elizabeth Hoyt book, NU. I've heard so many good things about her, I'm looking forward to trying her out.
