The List, also known as the list of my books to read (TBR), is continually growing in depth and expanding across genres. In July 2011, there were over 1,200 books on my TBR List. I own only 72 of those books as the vast majority have been added to the list because of reviews posted by my fellow book bloggers. Therefore, my wallet and sagging bookshelves thank you.
