It has been known that one of my goals to meet this year is to not buy any more books, until I have finished reading a large majority of books I have. I have created a shelf dedicated to books I have not read, only so it is easier for me to find a book I have brought and have not read. Plus it was easier to put away.
Taking away the Harry Potter illustrated copy and looking behind it (look at the bottom photo), I have the shelf pretty full.
The top five books that I do want to read before the year is out is;
- Raymond E. Feist: Magician; A fantasy book. I love a good fantasy book and I pick this one up a while ago in hopes of disappearing into another land.
- Murakami: A Wild Sheep Chase; I am a lover of Murakami and it wouldn't be right if I didn't read one of his books this year.
- Timur Vermes: Look Who's Back; This book is kind of about Hitler coming back in the future and trying to take over the world. It's so wrong but sounds really funny and I kind of hope it fills me with giggles and not with horror.
- Rosie Thomas: The illusionists; This book kind of reminded me of The Night Circus and that is properly why I picked it up. So I am aiming to read it and find out what it is all about.
- David Mitchell: The Bone Clocks; I have brought a couple of his books after a reading a few quotes from his works. I am determined to read and finish at least one of his books this year.
