Jennifer Wow. What a list? Couple titles look familiar. Looking forward to reading all the reviews.

Michelle (michelle_sutton) | 8 comments I doubt I will be able to read all of them. I'd be happy with half of them. But I have also agree to read 52 books not on this list for promo purposes. So we'll see how many I knock out...


message 4: by Krissy (new)

Krissy (writer2011) | 3 comments I want to read about half of these too!


message 5: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_sutton) | 8 comments LOL! Well, I should sell a bunch at a huge discount to get them all out of my house, eh?


message 6: by Krissy (new)

Krissy (writer2011) | 3 comments YES :)


message 7: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_sutton) | 8 comments Let me know which ones you would like to read and I'll work something out with you and try to read those first. Email me at michelle@michellesutton.net


message 8: by Krissy (new)

Krissy (writer2011) | 3 comments Thank you and I will email you by Friday!


message 9: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_sutton) | 8 comments Well, I just finished a book that is 657 pages long! I should have waited until 2012 to read it. :)


message 10: by Nancy from NJ (new)

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) That's what I've been doing. I try to end and begin the new year with a large book which is of special interest to me. Haven't picked out the two books yet but I'll be thinking about this as soon as I finish the three books I am reading now.

Yeah, but the funny thing was I had other books I had to read, but this one I actually paid for and then proceeded to read at the expense of my schedule, but I still loved it!


message 12: by Nancy from NJ (new)

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) What was the title of the big book you just finished, Michelle?


message 13: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michelle_sutton) | 8 comments After All is Said and Done by Belinda G. Buchanan. It was 660 pages long! I got the kindle version or I would not have realized the length and probably wouldn't have gotten it, but I did buy it because I couldn't see how long the book was. I'm glad I got it. I really enjoyed it.

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) Thanks - going to look it up st Amazon.
