Great list! I have the two Follett books you mentioned in my TBR room. I didn't add them to my challenge list for this next year, but someday I may get to them. I'll be eager to hear what you think of them. Good luck with the challenge!
Thanks! I got all of these books through Bookcrossing, so I had a record of when I got them. I think Arcadia is the oldest.
Stay tuned for my thoughts on these books!
I never heard of any of these books though some of the authors are familiar. thanks for introducing them.
You're welcome, nessie!
I have been keeping it to reading my tbr books for the first of the month. i look forward to it.... would you consider joinging another challenge one that is much crazier (ie my own!)?
Thanks for the invitation, but I think I'll pass. Good luck with your challenge!
