Oh! I did not know they made a show about it. I will have to hit that book first then and then check out the show. Thanks!

omigosh, I thought I was bad (still working on October 2010), but you're just as bad, Kristina lol

[Bea]

Hmm. Well, Tien and Kristina Simon, you may be able to catch up to me in coming years. All of my new LOST books are May 2011...and probably will be for a long while. Seems I must have added whole book lists at that time!

[Dee]

pretty sure my lost books are from 08-09 just saying....

LOL. See!!

Every year I think Lost is going to get me out of 2010, the year I joined Goodreads. But, no. I'm only half-way through 2010!

Totally worth it, though. I've found some great books in my Lost lists through the years. ;-)

[Dee]

i'm finally cataloguing all the amazon books i've brought over the years - so i use that as the basis of my LOST - so i periodically find books i bought early on and never added

[Joanna]

Bea wrote: "Dee wrote: "pretty sure my lost books are from 08-09 just saying...."

Nope! Mine are from when I joined GR in Nov. 2007, but they were all on my shelves before that...so....

[Tien]

Wow... I'm suddenly feeling much better about my lost list ha ha ha

[Bea]

LOL. Apparently, Tien, we are late bloomers to the lost list!

*GASPS* not read Anne of Green Gables?!
Have you watched any of the movies?

I am now thinking maybe we should have a series buddy reads for this or something... probably be not a good time to be thinking (late on Christmas day) lol

[Elvenn]

Bea wrote: "Welcome back, Elvenn. It feels like a long time, since I last saw you on here. You are linked."

Thanks, Bea! Yes, this year I made some time to go through my oldest shelves (and boxes...) and build a pile with books I've been wanting to read, to keep handy. :)

Tien wrote: "*GASPS* not read Anne of Green Gables?!

Lol, I haven't watched any of the movies. I remember reading the first three books (and those about Emily) when little and loving them but that's all I remember. I'm sure they would be a great choice for a buddy read. Anne's books have been on my tbr for ages but I somehow keep postponing them...

Widget has been created but there're still a few hours before you can set up your shelf etc.

Happy New Year!!

[Karin]

I have added the rest of my books, but I did modify in that for the last book listed I just said one book by an author because I added a number of his all on the same day nearly 4 years ago. But of course I might not be reading these 10 in the order listed since I don't think that's required.

[Tien]

Karin wrote: "I have added the rest of my books, but I did modify in that for the last book listed I just said one book by an author because I added a number of his all on the same day nearly 4 years ago. But of..."

Not at all, Karin, read it in any order you like.

[Ines]

ok, let's do this. From my TBR of books available to me. In number 4 (a bundle) I'm aiming for just the first book. Curiously, all except the first were aded in audio format (because of availability or purchase). This will be interesting indeed! I'm actually a terrible audiobook listener, as I get distracted easily, so I might support some of these with a written text if need be.

1. La Belle Sauvage (The Book of Dust, #1) - Philip Pullman
2. The Ruby in the Smoke (Sally Lockhart, #1) - Philip Pullman DNF
3. Mythos: A Retelling of the Myths of Ancient Greece - Stephen Fry
4. Dragon Blood - Omnibus (Dragon Blood #1-3) - Lindsay Buroker ✅
5. Doomsday Book (Oxford Time Travel, #1) - Connie Willis
6. Frankenstein - Mary Shelley
7. Dracula - Bram Stoker
8. Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde - Robert Louis Stevenson
9. The Cleverness of Ladies- Alexander McCall Smith ✅
10. Spirit Walker (Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #2) - Michelle Paver

[Bea]

Carrie and Ines, you are linked.

@ Ines: It looks like you have a book in #4 that would work for the January monthly shelf, also.

[Lisette]

Good idea to see if one of the lost books matches the january month shelf. I've all fantasy books on my lost list, so there has to be atleast one that fits the theme :D
