This post is long overdue. I honestly forgot I was making it. Noticed a few days ago there was one post in my dashboard marked draft and I couldn’t think what I had written unfinished? Oh yeah, a list of books I want to read someday. So it’s up-to-date now but very long thus I didn’t feel like compiling a montage of cover images (which is usually the fun part). Instead to make it a little visually interesting, I arranged the lines by length. Hm. Not sure I’ll do it that way again. Well, here’s the list- links go to those who brought these books to my attention. Hope someday I’ll get to them!
