I went with books on my TBR I would like to get to soon...

1. The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon - I have been meaning to read this since last year.

2. Road Ends by Mary Lawson - One of my favourite Canadian fiction authors.

3. An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield - I am really curious about this book.

4. Empty Mansions by Bill Dedman - I have heard good things about this and can't wait to check it out.

5. Gold Diggers by Charlotte Gray - One of my favourite Canadian non-fiction authors.

6. Paris 1919 by Margaret MacMillan - I have been meaning to read this for ages!

7. S by J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst - I strongly believe I will live this, but I need more time for it...

8. The Clockwork Scarab by Colleen Gleason - I really like Colleen's books.

9. The Girls of Atomic City by Denise Kiernan - I love books about women. Really need to read this!

  1. I started the Bone Season last year and was really enjoying it, but had it out from the library and had to return it before I finished it. The holds list was about a mile long, so I'm still waiting to get it back. Empty Mansions has been sounding really good to me.

  2. I'm curious about the Chris Hadfield book. I'm a big fan of his youtube videos from space.

  3. OMG! How did I ever miss hearing about S?! That sounds awesome. I want that so bad. But it sounds like it's going to tricky to actually read.

  5. I discovered Mary Lawson a year ago and loved her. I kept one of her two books for later, I guess now that a third one is out I could read it.

  7. I finally broke down and bought a copy of Bone Season. It sounds like it will be really good!

    They all sound good to be honest. Which isn't necessarily good for my pocket book. That's what wish lists are for, right?

  8. I don't even know if I could narrow my TBR list down to 10.
