There are also others dotted around the house, laying forgotten about underneath piles of work and strew clothes.
The question is, what the hell do I read next?
You have so many good books on your TBR shelf! I'm voting for Gone Girl {it's still in my TBR pile too!}
ReplyDeleteYou should totally make a TBR book jar then you just pop out a random choice and you'll have a good book to read :)
Happy reading!
I am dubious about Gone Girl because of the hype! It does at least look like the kind of book I would zip through in a day or two, so it is a contender. I am relatively poor at decision making. The jar thing is a good idea, or something along the same lines, as the decision would be taken out of my incompetent hands.
