I have a HUGE pile of books to be read also. I have many of the jodi picoult I haven't read yet. I just ordered The Abstinence Teacher and Ken Follet's Pillars of the Earth today. And I also have Middlesex and to many to mention. I need to stop piling and start reading. I'm hoping after the kids go back to school I can get back in the swing.

LOL Chopey - I've read all of those except The Secret. Just finished Keeping the Faith yesterday. It's my 2nd Picoult book, and my library has a bunch of her stuff. My list that I take to the library with me:

Authors - Picoult, Lisa Lee, Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child - I'll check out anything by them.

Actual books on my list:
No Country for Old men
Conscience of a Liberal
The Black Swan
King Leopold's Ghost
The Accordian Crimes
Angela's Ashes (I've read the sequel, go figure)
Black Hawk & Golden Falcon
Song of Exile
T Rex & the Cradle of Doom
Songs in Ordinary Times

That's the list from my uncle. A few are new but most he gave me 3 years ago & I've been meaning to read. So now that I joined the library, I put his stuff top on the list.

How was Keeping the Faith?? I always read a TON in the beginning of a year, (and hopefully all year long this year durn it) so I should get to that one on the list pretty soon!

I just started on Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, so books #4 and up are on my list.

I want to read F5 which is a non-fiction book about April 3, 1974. The author said that most of the interesting stories come from the county where I live and Hollywood is considering making a movie about it.
