Thursday Thirteen: 13 Books on My TBR Pile

4/10/2012

Hello, all! While I'm excitedly making preparations for a visit to the Museo del Ciclismo in Magreglio, Italy, I didn't have a lot of time to prepare a full-bodied Thirteen for today. So I've decided to share a portion of my TBR pile (that's "To Be Read" for those unfamiliar with the term) with all of you, as I've well over the requisite number of books waiting for my attention.

Shameful, I know.

So now, please allow me to present to you:

Thirteen Books (and e-Books) on My 'To Be Read' Pile

1) John Irving: In One Person (Hardcover)
2) Stephen King: The Wind Through the Keyhole (Hardcover)
3) Stephen King: Full Dark, No Stars (Paperback)
4) Matt Shaw: 9 Months - Book One (9 Months Trilogy) (e-book)
5) Tim Krabbe': The Rider (Paperback)
6) Margaret Atwood: The Year of the Flood (Paperback)
7) David Nicholls: One Day (Paperback)
8) Kurt Vonnegut: 2 B R 0 2 B (e-book)
9) Matt Seaton: The Escape Artist (Paperback)
10) Jonathon Budds: Consumed (ebook)
11) Simon A Forward: From Evil With Love (ebook)
12) Graeme Obree: Flying Scotsman (Paperback)
13) Amanda Egan: Diary of a Mummy Misfit (ebook)



And there you have them: Thirteen books which are currently resting atop my TBR pile. Maybe you'll feel compelled to check them out, too, now you've seen them listed here?

















At least you'd be reassured of a lovely selection of books for yourself as the autumn nights grow longer and cooler.


















You could curl up on the sofa with a cup of cocoa, or coffee, or tea...




















And then, you know...




















Select a good book and...















Enjoy.

I liked the Margaret Atwood. What no "The Casual Vacancy" by J. K. Rowling? I have to highly recommend that one.

No, I don't have "The Casual Vacancy" on my list - if it's not on my Kindle or on my shelf at the moment, it wasn't eligible for this list. And I'm waiting to see if that one comes down in price sometime soon - I'm not willing to pay the ebook price, particularly since a number of reviews have complained about the formatting, etc.

On down the road, when I've made a dent in my pile, I might consider it, though.

Have a great time reading. From your list I've only read, "Full Dark, No Stars."

I love it when you post stuff you read. I get too insulated and you always open new vistas of reading for me.
Awesome list and I'm noting them down.

I'm nothing if not an eclectic reader. And you know that's one of the reasons I do posts like this - I'm hoping to gain more exposure for some deserving reads! If you read any of 'em, I hope you'll let me know what you think.

Thanks - and I reckoned you would. You seem to appreciate that sort of thing. ;)

Oops. I found myself reading the top line for the photo, which made the pregnant woman title "Full Dark No Stars."

My bad! I should have organized the post better, I suppose. :-/

Have not read any of these, though I have read different works by a couple of the authors.

Some of these are very recent releases, as in the last month or two, while others came out earlier this year and still others have been out for years and I'm just getting around to them.

I've got a lot of catching up to do, regardless. LOL!

HA! Enjoy indeed! Your TBR is so much more highbrow than mine. LOL

Aw, go on - you know you want to! ;)

"Highbrow"? Really? Wowsers! I'm taking that as a compliment, ya know. ;)

I haven't read any John Irving in ages. And he so dependably creates a believable environment for his characters. It's time I revisited him.
