Happy first TT, looks like some very interesting reads!
How in god’s name do you find the time to read?
Yoon has been busy!
YOONIE!!!!! Welcome to the madness of Thursday Thirteen, I love your list and need to add many of them to my wishlist.
I have the Solzhenitsyn book. I read it maybe 15 years ago and recently I took it off my shelves to reread it but for some reason I put it back again. I don’t know why. I enjoyed it the first time and should read it again.
Welcome to TT!
Wow! I wish I could read that many books right now. I have a whole list to read during winter break. I’ve never read any of the ones on your list, though.
VAZ, I have at least an hour to read everyday when I hold Brandy after her meal. Since my wireless doesn’t work and I have to divide my time in 3 different rooms, I sometime have another hour or so to read if I don’t take a very short nap.
The latest 5 or 6 books are really short.
What a great list!! I have written a few down for my list!
