2018-04 - Wishlist - What will you Read?

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Our shelf for April is going to be Wishlist, as in I wish I had gotten this thread up earlier....

I always have a large number of books on my wishlist and it is fun to see what other people are wishing for. Plus it should be a shefl with a lot of variety since we are on short notice. Have fun with the list!

[Jamie]

I'm going to go with In a Dark, Dark Wood

If I can fit in another I'll try for one of these:

Between Shades of Gray
The Alchemist
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts 1 & 2
The Bear and the Nightingale

[CluckingBell]

I'll probably read something coming up for my IRL book club, like City.

[Idit]

I will probably read Fahrenheit 451

I have started it last month as an audiobook, but really really disliked the delivery. so I stopped before I would hate the book.

It was read by Tim Robbins - which I liked in few movies, but he feels very flippant about it. especially the way he read the women is super annoying

so anyways - I will read it instead this month with my eyes instead

[Robin]

I'm going to try All the Light We Cannot See

[Lena]

I'll read I'll Give You the Sun - it is on my mind for a while and this is a good opportunity to finally start it.

[Susan]

I'm thinking about one of these
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy}386162
An Ember in the Ashes
Shiver
Uprooted

HOWEVER ... I just started Shantaram, so whether I'll get to anything else before April is over is anyone's guess. Why do I do this to myself?!

[Rosemary]

This is a great idea for a shelf! I will read The Things They Carried which is also one of my Bookopoly picks for my next move :)

Also possible: Freedom

[Bhagyashri]

I have my exams, so i have time to read only one. I think i'm going to start Different Seasons or finish I Capture the Castle or start The Book Thief
Any suggestions on which one to do first? :)

[Amanda]

All the Light We Cannot See
Witches of New York
The Guernsy Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

[Bea]

I am still behind on my Monthly shelf reading, so I will only plan one book for April: Salt to the Sea.

I haven't read Different Seasons, but I've read both I Capture the Castle (which I found good, though nothing special) and The Book Thief. I loved the latter and gave it 5 stars, so I would definitely recommend it!

[Marina]

I noticed that I have quite a few in my wishlist as well - that's interesting!

I think I will read Vanity Fair, which I have planned for a group read in another group, although I'm a bit unsure I'll be able to finish it before the end of the month. I will also see if the other books I'll read fit in.

[Tyra]

I'll read Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere in April. Last year I read Stardust and was positively surprised, I've been searching for something else by Gaiman and figured this could be a good choice

LOVE[book:The Book Thief!!!

[Christina]

Going to try and read The Shining for this one.

[Paige]

This month I plan to read Mr Mercedes and/or Letters To The Lost. As well I plan to finish Alexander Hamilton which has been on my wishlist since 2017 and have been reading since January

[Karin]

Well, as it is on there 46 times, it's sitting at our house and I'm reading it for a different challenge, it's hands down going to be UnDivided

[Tamara]

I'll read Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children so it will count towards my oldest books on the to be read challenge too.

[Marina]

I loved it!

[Joyce]

I have quite a few books on my TBR in this list

I will read Half-Blood and
A Short History of Nearly Everything I enjoyed Bill Bryson's other books so this should be interesting.

[Paige]

Finished Harry Potter And the Philosopher Stone. Now I hope to read The Shining or Letters To The Lost next.

[Jamie]

I rarely give up on books but I had to stop reading Between Shades of Gray. Between the Young Adult simplified writing style to the awful narration on the audiobook, I just couldn't do it. But I'll watch the movie when it comes out because I'm still interested in the story,

[Muyina]

Fail-Safe, just because it's been getting dust on my bookshelf for too long.
