My Blog’s Name in Books – TBR!

Saw this neat meme/tag on O’s blog, On Bookes:

The rules:
1. Spell out your blog’s name.
2. Find a book from your TBR that begins with each letter. (Note you cannot ADD to your TBR to complete this challenge – the books must already be on your Goodread’s TBR)
3. Have fun!

With 500+ TBR books, this was easier than perhaps it should be.  I tried to choose a mix of fiction and nonfiction, and ended up surprising myself with a few titles I’d forgotten about (whoops!).

And now the moment of truth… have any of you read any of these books?  Which would you recommend?!

  1. This is s neat idea. As you know I just read Nostromo and liked it. I also read Herland . I liked that book. It was a lighthearted utopian exploration of gender and society.

  2. That's great to hear! My previous encounter with Gilman was The Yellow Wallpaper… it was just a little too creepy for me!
