This year I plan to consume less. I’m not going to buy any new books this year (except for the book club books). I’m going to read the books in my pile, the books hidden in my book shelves plus make more use of the library.
Currently in my pile I have:
The Lacuna Barbara Kingsolver
Surfacing Margaret Atwood
Magic IslandElizabeth Waterston
The Six Wives of Henry the V111 Antonia Fraser
The Longest Journey E M Forster
Brideshead Revisited Evelyn Waugh
Ballet ShoesNoel Streatfeild
The BrontesPatricia Ingham
The Tennant of Wildfell Hall Anne Bronte
Of those hidden in my shelves I want to read
Daniel Deronda George Eliot
Our Mutual Friend Charles Dickens
Bleak House Charles Dickens
The Forsyte Saga John Galsworthy
Wings of the Dove Henry James
Anna Karenina Tolstoy
Words and Rules Steven Pinker
Women who run with the WolvesClarissa Pinkola Estes
I’m sure I’ll find others throughout the year…
