Happy New Year Jeni!! Here's to a super-awesome new one!
Also, I love your book list and am marking this for future reference!
Thanks for listing your book list, Jeni. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!!! This year is going to rock, I can just feeeel it!
I used to be such a list-keeper, and I somehow got out of the habit last year...I always love marking what I've read - there are lots on your list I've not read yet - so much to read!
Ooooh I love this. I started doing annual book lists on FB last year and haven't posted 2010's list. Happy New Year and happy reading!
Whoa! That's an impressive list! I can't get motivated to read anything, or do much of anything lately. *jealous*
Happy new year to you too! <3
I love when people do this.. I'm always looking for new books to read
Great list! I wish I had more time to read for pleasure these days! Happy 2011.
I got The Book Thief the Christmas before last and still haven't read it. I shall make it the next thing I read!
I LOVED The Book Thief. I am the Messanger is pretty good too, though surprisingly different.
I'm lining up all your starred selections.
Wow, I am so impressed! I've never read most of those books, and should check some of them out! That is, after I finish rereading *ahem* my 740-page Shelters of Stone by Jean Auel, in preparation for the new one coming out soon. I'm just a sucker for Clan of the Cave Bear, I guess. It's my Harry Potter. I do see you got into the Dark Materials books this year though! I split my reading between adult and kid books. Thanks for sharing your list and happy new year!
I love book lists. Your list inspired me last year, too. I hope to start a similar tradition. Do you use any book sites? I've become fond of goodreads recently.
The Book Thief is on my "to read" list. What did you think of Pullman's books? I haven't read any of these yet. I really enjoyed White Oleander. It was recommended to me by a teen in a rehab. I worked at.
Many of these others I haven't read and will definitely keep in mind!
Hi Cassie - I don't use any book sites but you've piqued my curiosity to have a look at goodreads.
:)
I LOVE Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials series of books, well worth a read in my opinion.
Looking forward to seeing your book list.
:)
Holy cow you read a lot!!!
I wish I could read that much! My concentration is absolutely horrible.
