That's my favourite book in the world, Heidi! I hope you enjoy it. :)

Well that's 10% of my TBR pile plus 100 library books. I just can't seem to rent one or two library books at a time, somehow ..."


LOL I'm the same!

LOL That's the way to do it - I'm buying my own book-gifts this year, too!

I fantastically got my 16-book Dickens collection, which is beyond beautiful. Although I did have to re-arrange my 'classics' bookca..."


YOU GOT WHAT?!?!?! *mad crazy jealousy* My Dickens shelf is such a mish-mash of different sizes and colours and publications, I would give almost ANYTHING for a full collection. Congrats on the best Christmas present ever, haha!

118012 Thanks, LuAnn! Probably a few of them will be children's books for me, LOL. I'm not at a very high reading level just yet, especially with Russian. Sadly, I don't think they do children's books in Latin, though. I'll have to dive in at the deep end with that one!

118012 LOL I know the feeling, LuAnn! It's so hard to resist all the challenges thrown about on Goodreads. 100 is a great goal!

118012 Only 6 more days to go!!!

I've ordered my first January reads from my library's website, so now I'm all anxious to get them and see them sitting on my shelf in a big juicy stack. :D

Do you know what your first read of the year will be?

118012 Those look interesting, Chase!

Dely, I loved those books!

118012 A Christmas Carol! It's just not Christmas without it. :)

118012 I didn't get any books for Christmas, guys! :(

However, the post-Christmas sales have started, so I'm about to make up for it, heh...

118012 Nice challenges! Good luck, Inkeri. :)

118012 Spectactular goals, everyone! Maybe we should count up how many books our members read on the whole throughout the year - I'm sure it would end up in the thousands!

Kim, I've tried to compile a TBR list for 2014, but when I filled all 90 slots to complete my goal and still had dozens of books left over that I want to read just as desperately as those, it started to make me kind of sad, LOL. I never feel like I've read enough!

Ohhh, book-shaped presents... my favourite!
