This and That Thursday - Books From My TBR Pile
Welcome to my first post for a new feature, This and That Thursday (created by me). This and That Thursday is a new weekly meme in which writers pick two books that match the week’s theme (you can see a list of all the upcoming topics here) and discuss them, comparing/contrasting the handling of the material from whatever angle they want.
This week’s topic is Books on My To Be Read (TBR) List.
Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Wouldn't Mind Santa Bringing Me
Top Ten Tuesday is a great meme created by Jamie at The Broke and the Bookish that combines top ten lists and books. She’s come up with a great list of weekly discussion topics and I hope you’ll join in the discussion by commenting on this post or some of the other ones (you can find the list of participating blogs in this week's Top Ten Tuesday post on her site).

This week’s topic is Top Ten Books I Wouldn't Mind Santa Bringing Me.
Our last TTT of 2013 - awww :-( I kind of didn’t know how to answer this week’s TTT – I mean, after all, I want Santa to bring me ALL the books on my TBR list (all 186 of them). :p So I’m going with the top ten twelve books I most want to read of those on my TBR list.

This week’s topic is Top Ten New to Me Authors Read in 2013.
I used to always stick to my favorite authors--mostly the classics (Dickens, Austen, Bronte, etc.) and since becoming an author I've definitely branched out, reading more contemporary authors. That, combined with the fact that in the latter half of 2013, I've made a concerted effort to get my TBR pile under control, means that in 2013 I've definitely read lots of new to me authors. I gave myself a little pat on the back when I was compiling this list!

This week’s topic is Top Ten Sequels I Can't Wait to Get My Hands On.
Unfortunately, I had to tweak this topic a bit as in many cases, I have not yet read the first book, let alone the sequel. So my list this week, in no particular order, is “Top Ten Books On My TBR Pile That Have Sequels.”
