They sure are, Brenda. I'm sure I'll enjoy Neil Gaiman's take on Snow White more :D
721 I've changed:

Phantastes by George MacDonald (originally published in 1858) (Fantasy)

for

Snow, Glass, Apples by Neil Gaiman published March 2005 (Fantasy)

I was just really not in the right frame of mind for the old style of writing. It felt really heavy and made me work at reading, which is not what I wanted right now.
721 I finished my first...
c) One which was released in the last five (5) years (by any author): The After House by Michael Phillip Cash (2014) (Paranormal) ★★

Yeah, I am pretty sure I picked up a kindle copy for free from Amazon... But it sounds a bit different. Plus originally written in the 1800s it's bound to be at polar opposites in terms of language to the other two. It'll also double as my over 100yrs old book on my 2015 reading challenge :)
721 Here's my list:

a) Aussie Author: The Narrowing Path by David J. Normoyle (Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Dystopian) ★★★★

b) One that was released over ten (10) years ago (by any author): Snow, Glass, Apples by Neil Gaiman published March 2005 (Fantasy) ★★★

c) One which was released in the last five (5) years (by any author): The After House by Michael Phillip Cash (2014) (Paranormal) ★★

d) One from your Goodreads owned TBR: Jagannath by Kerry Alan Denney (Science Fiction) ★★★

The most time consuming part was working out if I'd purchased them or not... thankfully Amazon's content control function is pretty decent :P

Yes, it is... Amazon freebies and ARC copies of books are just too easy to come by... And I have poor impulse control. :)
721 Last time I posted my TBR was just under 1400. With a bit of a refresh, I've added anything I don't own to a wish-list shelf and everything on my TBR list (except for a few sneaky books that might have slipped through) I own.

It's currently sitting at: 1147, it's probably the lowest I've seen it.
