Things I want to read

OK so I have decided that since I can never remember what I want to read after I see it and thing 'Oh hey, I want to read that' I will make myself a list of things I have seen and really want to read!

1. Anything by Wilkie Collins - I read mysteries all the time and have never read the father of the mystery genre, how sad is that!

2. War and Peace - I even broke down and bought the new translation thinking that spending $40 on a hardcover will make me read it...so far it hasn't worked.

3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - there aren't many books that are that yellow and I like it! Yes it's true I judge books by their covers, I have been known to not read a book when the cover is horrid looking.

4. The Story of Edgar Sawtelle - I have heard raves about this book but I haven't been able to bring myself to read it. I hate when that happens.

5. Historical fiction, preferably something with Kings, Queens, and crazy followers that either love or hate them.

6. Something new by Brandon Sanderson...come on get that Wheel of Time number 12 out already!

7. the Georgia Nichols series, since Terra gave it such a glowing recommendation. http://terrabehindthebooks.blogspot.com/2008/10/omg-i-love-louise-rennison.html

I suppose that will keep my busy awhile...
