  I’ve tried to delve into the recesses of my mind to think of some great books I’ve read that I don’t hear discussed that much, and that I really enjoyed. I’ve started with some I read and loved as a child – so definitely qualify as backlist – then progressed to more recent but READ MORE

  I constantly DNF books, but then I also constantly return to partially-read and often mostly forgotten books and pick them up again. So this is a hard one for me, because DNFing a book isn’t a big dramatic decision for me as it can sometimes be for the more committed readers among you. I’ll READ MORE

  I like this week’s prompt – it allows me to choose widely varied books from all kinds of genres, some I’ve read, some I haven’t, and it’s not going to be that hard. So here are some I found by perusing my shelves, looking back over what I’ve read and just thinking about it READ MORE

Not even once. So I could literally put anything on this list and it would have neither any more or less READ MORE
