I don’t do wish lists outside of pre-Christmas season. If I want something hard enough, I go and get it myself. But as I’m painfully aware of the space running out on my bookshelves, and more so of my towering TBR-pile (really, the list here is only a small part of it), I’m trying to cut back on buying books. I’ll buy shoes instead. And handbags. And yarn.
Anyways, this is my list of books I will get eventually, once I’ve made a dent on the TBR-pile (or the temptation becomes too big) or there’s a good sale (well, they do say the economy’s in a slump). Once I have more shelf space.
