There were plenty of children's books on that list!

I love the picture.

You have been very busy reading - I am pretty sure I come nowhere near it, although I never manage to keep track - and about half of my reading each year is well-written fanfic - so many of the writers I know are so much more reliably good than many of those who get to paper!

That's Bumberjean, Christmas 2009.

Join Goodreads and keep track of what you read, although there isn't a way to tabulate the fanfic, of which I am aware.

Oddly enough I joined it a couple of days ago - I'm there as Voirrey - I gather there are 3 of us - but only one comes from our island!

And I've just found you there.

I love this post and am gleaning loads for my future "to read" list!
Is the final list the order in which they were read?
And I love it that there are young people's books on the list!
GREAT picture to accompany the post.
:)

Yes, the final list is the order in which they were read. I'm old enough now that if I want to read a child's book, I will. What a burden teens carry trying to appear mature! I'm glad it isn't one I have to carry any longer.

I feel the same way and often re-read all the children's books we still have on our shelves from when my daughters were small.

Will you have lupines on your tattoo, too?

Have you ever considered an illumination (like from medieval texts) for a tattoo?

Oh my goodness! I jumped when I read your Cormac McCarthy comment - he drove me crazy with his lack of punctuation in "No country for old men" so I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way! (Now I'll read the rest of your list.)

One Cormac McCarthy book in my lifetime is my limit!
