On My Shelf

So here is my shelf of books to read starting from January 2012 - as I read and review them I'll cross them out but it should give you a fair idea of what's to come :D

A few of these books are re-reads (and I'll mark which ones) but most are 'dusty' books that I've promised myself I'll go through and read them all starting this year :D

Just a note - some of these are likely to change order, dependent entirely on my mood at the time of picking a book up. Also one or two may be added as I give in to temptaion and buy a new book if it's going for a good price ;)
