How fun is this?! I get to be featured at Parajunkee today for Follow Friday!
I love connecting with other readers. I hope you'll say hi while you are here so I can get to know you and follow your blog!
Today's Follow Friday question over at Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read is:
Go count the number of unread books sitting on your shelf. How many?
I got a little freaked out when I read today's question. Just the thought of having to pull all of my books off the shelves to count them... My "to-read" shelf on Goodreads only has books that I actually own so I will start with that number: 151.
These are some of the books I am longing to read that were recently added to my TBR pile:
Do you have any books calling to you from your TBR shelf?

Love your blog! Congratz on being featured, I'm a new RSS follower :)
ReplyDeleteI have The Book Thief too that's calling me to as well as The Host by Stephanie Meyer. I've heard amazing things about both. Also Divergent, Wings by Aprilynne Pike, Supernaturally by Kiersten WHite..I have so many I want to read - not to mention the 3 books I own of The Mortal Instruments series!!! :D
Happy Friday!
April @ My Shelf Confessions
Congrats on being featured! Anna Dressed in Blood is in my pile too while my friend has The Book Thief in hers. :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! The book that is calling to me the loudest is Bloodrose! Omg, I want to snuggle and read with that book in my hand so bad, but I'm smack dab in the middle in reading another book.
ReplyDeleteNew follower!
I'm scared to look at my TBR on goodreads. Or my unread ebooks. I don't even want to know the real number. Old follower!
ReplyDeleteJennifer @ The Bawdy Book Blog
Congrats on the feature! 150 isn't too bad. I'm at around 100, but I used to be close to 300. My FF
ReplyDeleteOld follower. Congrats on the feature! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have that many unread books on my shelf compared to some people I've seen. Apparently I read fast enough that I keep up fairly decent with my buying habits. Haha. There are over 200 books that I want to buy though... gotta have the pocket for that unfortunately. :P My shelf is always growing anyway and I do have a nice little "to-read" pile that grows up and down as I read and buy. :P
Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

ReplyDeletehttp://diamondinroughcoal.blogspot.com/2012/01/follow-me-friday-5.html
All the time I'm adding books to my TBR pile. So that means I have a much bigger number. New follower. Come visit me as well.
ReplyDeleteMy FF
I probably have close to that number too but I'm just not going to acknowledge it lol
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being a featured blogger!
I'm currently at 48 but if we go off my Goodreads TBR I'm at 352! I don't know where I'd put that many books if I had them.
ReplyDeleteMegan @ Between the Lines
You have certainly put my list to shame! New follower via Twitter.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the feature as well!

The only books in my TBRP are buried under the mounds of already-read books and long forgotten. One day when I sort them all out, it'll be like Christmas!
ReplyDeletewow it seems like everyone has a lot more books than I do. Good thing I'm not a hoarder?

Ning @ Reading by Kindle Fire
That's the average number I guess, since it's most people's number. And your TBR is great, I especially want Anna! Congrats on the feature!

Hey Jennifer, 151 is a pretty intimidating number, but also really awesome. I'm an addict so the more I have the better I feel lol. Have a great weekend, New follower ;)

ReplyDelete151 sounds like a manageable number if you can stop the stack from growing :)
ReplyDelete& Enclave and Anna Dressed in Blood are both great.
New follower :)
This question has actually made me feel a lot better about my TBR list seeing as how it's a lot smaller then most so far.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are able to start working on your pile soon. Good luck.
I'm a new follower you can see my FF here! =D
My number is very close to yours. Whew...
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the feature :) I was so excited to see you featured. It made me want to hop!

ReplyDeleteHi, Just stopping by on the Friday Follow. I am a new follower here
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot to read this year, I guess. '-)
I have about 4 e-books on my computer that are waiting to be read and reviewed. On the shelf there are none. I usually get books from the library and take them back after reading them. A holdover from my bout with homelessness? Maybe.
I am at

Good morning - new follower stopping by. I'm all for the long TBR list . . . gives us something to do if we win the lottery, or if civilization breaks down into some post-apocalyptic dystopia. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being this weeks feature!!! I am loving all the books you pictured in your TBR on this post. Rot and Ruin was my favorite book out of all the books I read in 2011.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday
The Book Thief is also on my TBR pile...and I keep hearing so much about that book!

Hi, new follower here!
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling ashamed of my low number--10! But I think it might have something to do with the fact that I don't buy many books, and I haven't started requesting ARCs. You have enough books to last you for a year. That's awesome!
Congrats on being the feature! I love Stephen King and should add his newest to my TBR pile. new follower. Going to check out your site now.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Kayla. My TBR pile on goodreads is 149 not including the books that I have at home waiting to be read and the books on my nook waiting to be read. Hopefully I will read all of them this year! Congratulations on being this weeks feature! If you want to check out my blog here is the link http://simplykayla0203.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
The Book Thief is on my TBR as well. Your pile looks good! I'm hoping to get a copy of Enclave soon. I've heard nothing but good things about it.
ReplyDeleteFinally, someone else who has a large TBR number. I have about 120 unread books and my Goodreads is only 101, however, I don't have every book for the series I want to read so my actual number is much higher. Also, congrats on being the feature this week!

ReplyDeleteHopping through. New follower. I'm glad I'm not the only one with a huge TBR pile.
ReplyDeleteWell, this question has made me feel slightly better about my pile. I love that I'm not alone! "Jenny Pox" is amazing and I can't wait to see what you think of it. Congrats on the feature!

yeah....I didn't even touch my goodread "to-read" shelf. only a portion of the books I actually posses are on there. That practically would have doubled my grand total. scary thought.

ReplyDelete151 isn't bad at all for a to-read shelf. (Compared to my to-read shelf... which is nearing 1,500). I'm an addict, what can I say. :)

I like the idea of only having books you own on your TBR in GoodReads... but there are so many books, I need to remind myself of what I want to get..one day!
