[Piper's reading list - 2013]

I am definitely making progress this year on my TBR pile . However, in the last 3 months I have downloaded about 15 books onto my Kindle so am builing a virtual TBR pile on there .  I now try to have one book and one Kindle book on the go at any one time . I feel I could do more but things get in the way of my reading... work, relationships, life etc

[Diane Chamberlain]

I love her books! So far The Midwife's Confession has been my favourite but really none of them are a disappointment

[Piper's 2011 reading list]

Well it's still October and I have read twice as many books as I thought I would for the whole year . That's good . I don't seem to have made much of a dent in my TBR pile though and if I'm honest I have bought a few new books too. I've now finally decided to get a Kindle even though I love my books and don't think e-books could ever replace them, they do have their place. Plus its a new gadget and I love those . So I don't expect that TBR pile to disappear anytime soon and will probably add a Kindle TBR pile instead
