I did not expect you to start this soon! I have placed a reservation for it at my library, which should be no later then 20th Jan. Still have my current read which I will follow by a shorter one then hopefully I will have it and can start

Glad to hear! I loved 11/22/63 so if it is anywhere near that quality I won' be disappointed.

I've had it a while now but have put it off as there were so many other King books I wanted to read. But now it will be my next King read within the next couple of months.

Some great books Dex! Looking forward to seeing what you make of them

2013 Major reads (series and tomes) The Wheel of Time - Robert Jordan The Kingkiller Chronicles - Patrick Rothfuss Night's Dawn Trilogy - Peter F.

Martin Ketty Jay - Chris Wooding Books of the Art - Clive Barker Farseer Trilogy - Robin Hobb Rama Series - Arthur C.

Great lists Ben, happy reading!

The Painted Man by Peter V. Brett is £2.99 and the sequel The Desert Spear is £1.99 at the moment on Kindle. Almost finished The Painted Man and would certainly recommend it!

You're very welcome! I have found loads on here as well. It as expanded my bookshelf and shrunk my wallet

After seeing your lists, I concur with all crazy Finnish remarks!

Great lists Devi! We have a lot of the same books and authors to check out

Thanks, i'm actuallly looking forward to it now After the first 20 times I saw you bang on about it I thought it might be worth checking out, although if it is rubbish I might not talk to you again... so I hope you were honest

I won't start a new thread as this one wasn't specific to this year, I will at some point try and update my TBR and wishlist. Since Christmas I have bought a few books, mostly with my Amazon gift card Waylander II and The Quest for Heroes by David Gemmell Dragondrums by Anne McCaffrey The Alloy of Law by Brandon Sanderson (Mass Market PB) Replay by Ken Grimwood (Steve's fault) also got Watership Down, Last Exit to Brooklyn and Double Dexter but they don't count on here.

You have a great TBR pile! Should be a good year

Some great books on your TBR pile! Should be a good year

I have this lovely three volume edition The History of Britain by Simon Schama 3000 BC-2000 AD. I would certainly recommend them.

Finished Rose Madder, quite enjoyed it but at 600 pages it was too long for a suspense novel. Some very good bits but a lot of unnecessary stuff in there as well. Overall 7/10

I have been putting it off for quite some time, cause I have so many other series to read so I kind of just want to start it. Think I will get the ebooks though, the paperbacks do look nice but I just don't have the room

I keep finding more books I didn't know about as well!

Yeah you're right... but that is the point, he is an anti-hero. He knows he isn't normal and what he does isn't right, he just tries to make it slightly less worse.

The Green Hornet, it was ok, had some funny moments but Seth Rogen stopped being funny after his first film.

oohh let me know when you planning to do this, I might as well

'tis the plan

Don't worry Frankie, I've only seen the first four episodes so far.

I will definitely take credit for the short story collection then! They look great when you have all three of them together
