Evening all,
This will be the first challenge I've taken part in on LT. I've been here a while now, but not really interacted a great deal other than to list books on my own library.
So my list begins with one I have just finished not 10 minutes ago -
1. Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier
............so now onto
2. Sophia's Secret by Susanna Kearsley
both books have come from the local library as that is my own resolution for 2009 - get as many as poss from there. Please forgive me if I make mistakes whilst posting as I'm not used to it as yet. I shall attempt to upload more of my TBR list during this week.
HAPPY 2009 TO ALL FELLOW BOOK ADDICTS

Hi, dreamyflo!
I read Rebecca last year. It was a reread for me, but it had been lots of years since the last time I read it. I thought it was wonderful! :) I am hoping to read some more du Maurier this year. Good luck with your reading challenge!

Ok quick change there, I couldn't get into Sophie's Secret - it seems rather like a history text book to me, not for me so abandoned and replaced by the now read
2. Julius Winsome by Donovan Gerard
Off to dig something from the TBR pile now

I always do them in single posts, too! Last year, I waited until I had read 5 to post, but now I like to add each book as it is read. I am reading The Brothers Karamazov and Cold Mountain. What are you reading now?

No 10 down - The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon - a quick and very different and enlightening read, certainly gives you a view of life from another's perspective - great

No 11 was my Easter weekend read - great too, loved it
How To Be Good by Nick Hornby
Highly recommend that one
