  1. I’m ashamed to say I’ve not read much recently.

  2. Your list have a lot of my TBR novels too – Camino Island, Gone with the Wind, all the Dan Brown ones you have listed, and Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children 🙂

  3. This is quite a list! Are you going to read them in order? If not, it might take a month to figure out which one to read first!

    • Thank you! No, I’ve been flip-flopping recently. I’m glad I have them all written down like this – It helps! My current plan is to read through the stack on my nightstand first, and then go back to the list! However, I know I want to knock out Gone With The Wind before the end of the year – It’s been bugging me 🙂
