. . . shaking it all about?
In the past we have made lists of the books from out tbr piles that we want to read in the coming year and I think it's a great idea to keep us motivated.

I hope as many of you as possible take part this year (even if you want to make a smaller list). I love reading the lists and seeing how everyone is getting on. Compiling my list has made me really look forward to reading this year and I can't wait to get started.

Add your name to this thread if you are taking part and start your own thread. I'll add your name to the post after this and put your progress with compiling your list:) Even if you don't intend to make a list it would be great if you state that in this thread just to see who's checking in:)

P.S. When I got a bit stuck on my list (after my ipad decided to reload the browser page again and I lost everything but the first 2 books and their descriptions of my reasons for reading) I had a look at this list link: Goodreads List: Books Everyone Should Read At Least Once
and discovered I'd read most of the top 100 so it must be half decent choices for my taste ;)

Karen  | 120 comments OMG - so many books to read this year. Ok - I'll have a go at listing my books - and they're all here in the new topic:

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

And yes - I will try to keep this list updated as I either read them (or more to the point, pre-order more books - but only if they're a 2015 release!)

Aimee (smiley_laydee) | 92 comments I am here and trying to do the challenge found on pinterest:

Five Children and It (adapted into film)
Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone (book from childhood)

Yay Karen - think I'll be spending tonight looking up your list! Can you make your own thread please (save this one getting complicated later on). Thanks for taking part!

Yay - Aimee. I like that link. Think I'll be combining it with my 12 + 3 by seeing if there are any I can tick off with the books from my list. Can you make a wee list on another thread for me to keep things tidy? Thanks for taking part and posting the link!

Yay Fiona - liking that you've got Graphic novels on there and Sir TP - I was thinking if him for my list but couldn't choose one book - Gaiman got on there though. Can you make you own thread to keep things tidy please? Thanks for taking part:)

My list is done and first book is read! It was a shortish one though, I have some much, much longer ones on my list. (i did also sit up far too late reading it too)
