How exciting! Enjoy those! I must study the picture and look for further information. You may have helped me grow my to-be-read list from 19 to a lot more than that.
You know, an unexpected consequence of reading agent blogs that I hadn't anticipated is the number of books that have been added to my wish list. I look at this stack, and at least four of those titles have me saying, "Ooh, that's a great title. I have to look that up." From this site in particular. :) I think we have similar taste.
We just moved house and I can't remember how many boxes were labeled either 'Mike's books to be read' or 'Donna's books to be read'. It was a lot, anyway. And of course we still buy them faster than we can ever read them.
Janet - you might appreciate this one, too: "The Octopus Was Full of Judgement" http://unhappyhipsters.tumblr.com/post/354725045/the-octopus-was-full-of-judgement-dwell
"This Wicked World", along with "The Ghosts of Belfast" and "Ravens" were my best reads last year. "Dead Boys" by Lange is what turned me on to him. Still laugh about the elevator scene in one of the stories. Based on title alone, going to look into "Dope Thief". Thanks for the info.
Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.
If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.
Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.
If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
This is a good looking TBR pile ;)

Where's the next Charlaine Harris?
ReplyDeleteOooooo I hear The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie is very good. Though I'm sure they're all good, naturally!
ReplyDeleteBag the queries and go for the good stuff! Life's too short =)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading. I must say I'm impressed with the pile.

Yesterday's blog picture was pretty, but today's is VERY pretty! Is anything more delicious than a stack of new books to read?

ReplyDeleteoooh I'd read Sweetness.. first.

ReplyDeleteIs she your Octo-American assistant? I imagine that her ability to multitask is a great asset. You have a very diverse workforce.

ReplyDeleteGreat TBR lineup!
ReplyDeleteI think the octopus was a nice touch.
ReplyDeleteLooks like your octopus has first dibs ;)
ReplyDeleteNothing quite puts a song in my heart like a box of books arriving in the mail. This stack looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Janet! Hope you enjoy it.
