Although it's impossible to ever know the number, no doubt many a reader will read your post, say "Oooo. That sounds good," and grab up a pencil to add this selection to their list of future reads, as I will.
Now where did that list of books go???

It is worth the read once you get into it. I am on the 2nd book right now Fifty shades darker. I am almost done & ready for the 3rd bookAt the recommendation of my best friend, I just began reading Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James. Apparently it caused quite a stir within the literary community but, so far, I don't see any reason for any uproar. If it doesn't pick up very soon, I may return it to the library.
I've read that It's cute. I'm on a Janet Evanovich mission at the moment. I need some laughs!
Snip, have you read all of her Shopaholic series?

Just noticed that the Princess is listless. Maybe she should visit the Klatch room - there's a hot tub going in.
did you catch that fancy cross-referencing move of tin's this morning? love that! makes everybody scramble to see what they've been missing.
alix and pf must have season seats for that bay window... and they claim that watching construction work on the back deck is the main attraction--yeah, right....
We like hollering work suggestions to Thor, like..."take off your shirt"

I used to read a lot but stopped for a while. I'm always busy.
We just joined the Library and I've started reading Motor Mouth by Janet Evanovich. Not bad so far. I've read lots of her other books and loved them all, hopefully this one just as good!
Just finished "Hiss and Hers" by M.C.Beaton, and almost am done with "Never say Pie" by Carol Culver. Next in the chute are "Delusion in Death" bye J.D. Robb, "Invisible Murder" by Lene Kaqaberbol & Agnet Friis (the latest in authors in the Scandinavian translation murder mysteries) and "The 100-year Old Man Who Climbed out of the Window and Disappeared" by Jonas Jonasson, and Cop to Corpse by Peter Lovesey. My "modus operendus" is to start with the lightest book and work up to the darker/heavier ones. Then when I next hit the library, I'm ready for light again. Since Dad and Godmother died over holidays, I simply don't do much serious anyway for the time being. Pure escape is the name of the game! Anyway the Pie and Hiss books were what you'd expect, the "cozy" mysteries; and I always enjoy the food-oriented ones.
Don't think I've read them all. The Confession of a Shopaholic Series was co authored by Sophie Kinsella wasn't it? I read it long ago, can't remember all the details.
I read Confessions of a shopaholic, Shopaholic Takes Manhattan and Shopaholic ties the knot.
Snip, when my sister had her children, she stopped reading for awhile, because she said that she got so involved with the book, that it was one or the other. Her kids are now in their teens and she can now relax a bit and read!
Remarkable Creatures by Tracy Chevalier. She brings the true-life story of a young woman, Mary Anning, who finds amazing fossils on the English coast near Lyme Regis in 1823. Most important were the first ever discovered fossilized remains of a "Loch Ness monster," as we think of this creature. This exhibit, a plesiosaurus, is still in the British Museum in London. Check it out on Wikipedia, and try this book. It's only a couple of years old - 2010.
