Book Blogger Hop (2): August 13-16, 2010

The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy for Books. The whole idea behind it is to link up your blog and check out others who did the same!

For those of you stopping by from the Hop, I want to say welcome!

Feel free to have a look around my site. I'm 23 year old aspiring novelist and on this site, it's all about YA, writing, and movies! I'm really big into following people and (since I have a lot of free time currently) I'm always reading posts and commenting! I can't wait to meet you all!

This week's question is:
How many books do you have on your "to be read" shelf?

I have to admit, I have a BUNCH of TBRs. Basically, I rarely let it get under 50. Currently, I've got 47 (but six books from Amazon on their way). I've got a mixture of old books and new books. I really try to read them in the order I bought them which sometimes works out but most of the time I lose excitement for some things and wonder why the heck I've bought them. Also, I tend to skip around if I'm super excited about a novel (you can bet I'll be doing that with Mockingjay and Matched).


Happy hopping!

  1. Well, I'm already a follower, but I'm still stopping by. :]

    I'm the same way in that I try to read my books in the order I bought them. Usually I stick to that plan, but it does put a delay on my reading schedule if I lose hype over the book I have to read next. Especially if it's for school.

  2. I'll definitely be reviewing Ballad, probably in the upcoming week - maybe in the next few days if I can finish a school book quickly. So no worries.

    It's actually the first book of Stiefvater's I'm reading, so I'm curious as to how much I'll enjoy it.

  4. Just wanted to comment about Devil's Kiss - I read it this spring - I enjoyed the story. It takes a different look at the Templars and roles people play - I hope you like it. Can't wait for your review.

  8. Happy Friday!!!--Stopping by from the hop!--Old follower!!! (within the last two hops) :)

    my tbr number is a little high right now, but to be fair, I'm also including all the classics and such that I'd like to read "someday." The actual pile on my desk is much smaller ;)

  12. Hi! Stopping by from the Hop.
    I love your background! It's great.

    As for TBR piles, mine isn't that huge to be honest. I have a lot of books written down that I want to read, though!

    Have a great weekend.

Thinking of writing something below? Well, that's why you are awesome! I always love feedback!

This blog is an award free zone. With the demand of a full time job, blogging time is becoming much more precious and I just don't have the time to meet the demands of awards. Thanks so much for thinking of me anyway!
