Edited post 11 - 4/5 complete!I am a mite concerned about finishing that last title in January. Impending library due dates necessitate a re-prioritization of my TBR if I don't want to end up back at the bottom of the wait list. I own The Lies of Locke Lamora, so it isn't going anywhere...
ladymurmur, totally understand. Any chance you can switch your books around and include the library books?Speaking of which, I'm switching out my 2011 book, just don't feel in the mood for a historical, even if its meant to be funny.
