It's Friday and I am hoppin'! August 13 - 16, 2010












It's Friday - last Friday I got my post together and didn't get a chance to hop or follow - so this Friday I am starting earlier - it is only barely Friday - just 20 past midnight and so I am hoppin' now and hope to hop again late Friday night, early Saturday morning!  Hope you are all getting the chance to hop too!

Crazy For Books hosts the Book Blogger Hop and Parajunkee hosts the Friday Follow!


I am hoping to start posting all my reviews on Saturday - so check back and see what I have been reading!

This week the question is: How many books do you have on your TBR?  
The answer to that question is so far out my my ability to answer that it shouldn't even be funny, but it is.  I remember a time when I had a TBR stack or pile.  Now I have shelves, piles, stacks, lists, boxes, and I am so far behind in reading all the books I want to read that I fear I will never catch up.  I am sure that if I quit buying and borrowing books, blogging, working, cooking, cleaning, eating, sleeping, and having any kind of social interaction with humans - I could finish reading all the books that I have in my TBR mountain in the next say three/four years.  Of course I could be wrong.  I hope your stack isn't like that too.

Happy Friday!!!--Stopping by from the hop!--I'm a new follower

my tbr number is a little high right now, too--but to be fair, I'm also including all the classics and such that I'd like to read "someday." The actual pile on my desk is much smaller ;)

Hi, thanks for stopping by my blog. I love your blog title.

Emidy @ Une Parole said...

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Wow, it sounds like you've got no shortage of books. I guess that's a good thing, though! You'll never be bored. But I can see how that would get overwhelming.

Have a great weekend!

Hello! I am a new follower! Thanks for hopping by my blog! =) Wow! That is a lot of books! I am not quite there yet but the way I buy books will get me there eventually!

Lover Of Romance said...

Just stopping by for the hop!! Thanks for stopping by mine!! I agree that even though my list is kinda short, in reality it probably is shelves and shelves if i thought long enough of all the books I really would like to read. But i think that there will always be TBR shelves as high as the ceiling, but as long as we enjoy what we read then thats what counts right?

Have a great weekend!

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Happy Friday!

Missie, The Unread Reader said...

Howdy from the hop!

I really wish I could speed read, that would help my TBR pile lessen. But I'm the slowest reader on the planet! Grrrrr

Good luck with your pile!

Thanks for visiting my blog today. :)

Last time I counted my TBR pile, I had over 59 books in it. That's just counting the ones in my house already, not the ones on my mental TBR pile.

Happy reading!

Hopping back by from the hop...I think your TBR mountain might just equal mine...an embarrassment of riches

Bev Hankins said...

Stopping by on the Hop! I said that my TBR list was probably in the hundreds. 1000 is probably more like it....and it never gets smaller.

pussreboots said...

Happy Friday. Come see how many books I have on my TBR pile. I had to create a database to keep track of it all.

A Life Bound By Books said...

Loved your awnser to this weeks question. I feel the same way, but there's just no way I can stop adding new books to that list/pile.

Have a great weekend!

Casey (The Bookish Type) said...

Hello! Thanks for stopping by my site! Hahaha I must say that sounds an awful lot like my TBR list as well. I think that's the curse (gift?) of being a book blogger =)

The picture of the dryads (I guess that's what they are - tree women?) is AWESOME!

Can't wait to read all those upcoming reviews!

Ditto. it's an insane list. Kind of overwhelming. I'll never finish it this year. :( The sad thing is I keep adding to it.

The Book Guru said...

Everyones to-be-read pile is so much bigger then mine! I only counted the books I actually have in my house that I have yet to read not all the ones I want to read to! That list would be MUCH bigger lol

Happy Friday

Thank you for visiting my blog last week. I'm sorry to be hopping back so late!
My TBR pile has no limits and I swear it probably grows by 10 books everyday. Of course, this pile is really just in my head because all of my books are packed. :)
Have a great weekend!
