I still haven't seen the movie The Kings Speech. Didn't know it was a book! Maybe I should read it first...

Enjoy!

77 more books before the end of the year? Wow---You must be a speed reader! Good luck with the challenge and thanks for stopping by my blog.

Great list! I haven't read these titles by Jennifer Weiner but I have read a few of her earlier books and really enjoyed them - and I plan to read Certain Girls this fall. Good luck with your challenge!

Susanne said...

Wow, I have not read or heard of a one of those. Happy reading.

Kristin said...

I thought I was being ambitious by putting 25 books on my list, but it seems quite a few people have more than that on their lists.

My list is a combo of review books and books that will help me complete the other reading challenges I am participating in.

Good luck!

What a goal! I'm always amazed at how many books you get through. Do try to read JOY FOR BEGINNERS and SHUT YOUR EYES TIGHT. Both were very good I thought.

I'm going to bookmark this post and see if I can join in to this challenge in a couple of weeks.

Sarah said...

Thanks for the comment Nise'! Your list is amazing! I'm definitely going to put some of those on my "to read someday" list since I don't think I've heard of any of them!

Unknown said...

That IS an ambitious list. Wow!

Jennifer said...

Wow that's a big goal! I actually haven't read any books on your list. Have fun! I hope you succeed!

Amy said...

Wow what a list! Thanks for your recommendation of listening to Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk! I'll have to check to see if my library carries the audiobook version.

Jenny said...

Great list Nise'! I'm looking forward to Love on the Line as well. Wishing you success on your goal...Happy reading!

My husband liked THE KING'S SPEECH and got the DVD from the library to watch over the weekend.

I started BEST FRIENDS FOREVER but only read about 1/3 of the way and gave up on it. I just didn't like it enough to keep reading.

Irene said...

Oh my gosh! haven't read any of them.

Dawn @ sheIsTooFondOfBooks said...

Good luck with your (very ambitious!) goal ... I love to see all those books stacked up in your photo.

Peggy Ann said...

I can't wait to read your review of 'The Rose Garden' by Kearsley. I just read 'The Winter Sea' by her and really liked it. And I want to do Ten things I probably shouldn't!

Beth(bookaholicmom) said...

That is quite the list! I see many, many good titles in there. I look forward to seeing what you think of all of these.

Anonymous said...

No, I haven't read any of these -- haven't even heard of most of them. Looks like it will keep you busy for a while! Happy reading!

Beth F said...

Awesome stack o' books! I really should sign up for this. It's through Fall into Reading that I met most of my blogging friends (including you).

Wonderful list. Many I need to add to my TBR pile. By the way I love the bears.

Katrina said...

I don't think I've read any of these, but I'm very impressed by your list! I would like to read The King's Speech -- I've heard lots of good things about it. Thanks for being part of Fall Into Reading 2011!
