TBR 999 & 1,000

Here they are, nos 999 & 1,000 on my tbr shelves. Very appropriately, they're two recent books from Greyladies, Parson's Nine by Noel Streatfeild & Gin and Murder by Josephine Pullein-Thompson.

And for my next challenge? Well, according to Library Thing, I have 2,775 books. How long would it take for me to round that up to 3,000? Maybe I should just calm down & read a few of the great unread before I buy any more...

  1. Ha- I definitely think you need to round up to 3000. Sounds like fun.

  2. Gosh. Never knew that JPT wrote murder mysteries. She was my favourite of the PT sisters when I read their horsey stories as a child. How fascinating.

    1. She wrote three mysteries, according to the Introduction to GAM. Greyladies are publishing a second one, Murder Strikes Pink, later this year. I'm looking forward to reading this one.

  3. I love the way you're doing the opposite of what we bloggers popularly complain about, namely monumentally enlarging your TBR rather than reducing it. I say, go for 4000!

    1. Yes, I've decided to stop worrying about my books & just enjoy them, even though I do sometimes panic because I can't decide what to read next. It's not much of a problem, though, is it?

    1. Parson's Nine was her second novel & set during WWI so I'm looking forward to reading it.
