I probably have about 500 unread books on my shelves (and office floor). I keep telling my husband it's not like I bought <i>all</i> of them. Many are comp copies from when I worked for Borders in TX back in the late 90s. Yep, the 90s. And many are ARCs that I've acquired while working at B&N. Quite a few are from library sales. And, yes, there are <i>some</i> that I just had to buy. And I will read them all, eventually. ;)<br /><br />As I mentioned in a response to another comment, I should wait to read <i>Gemini</i> when I'm in the Seattle area this coming September (my husband and I will be out for the Wooden Boat Festival in Port Townsend), but I don't want to wait that long. I think I'll save it for my flight to Oregon when I head out to Depoe Bay for a week of R&R at the beginning of April. I'll try not to take so long, this time, to post my review!Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-79886854561211575022014-03-11T17:41:00.656-07:002014-03-11T17:41:00.656-07:00I can't wait to start it, either, Iliana!

I'll add it to my list, but I'm going to go ahead and read <i>Gemini</i> later this month...maybe on my flight to Oregon on the 1st. Or maybe I should wait until September when we're in Seattle/Kingston/Bainbridge again... nah. That's too far off!<br /><br />Just read your review for <i>Lydia's Party</i> and I'm eager to get a copy! Sounds wonderful.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-64036828306842616762014-03-09T19:24:48.635-07:002014-03-09T19:24:48.635-07:00I just counted, and have over 600 unread books on ...I just counted, and have over 600 unread books on my shelves!
