It's linked in the first post of the List Thread, so if it does get buried it is easy to find.

Agreed. Plus we get notifications on the User CP when updated...

This thread still should be to be stickied.

Have a look at my list in the list thread. I've put in cover images and links to the GoodReads entries. It's quite nice.

^Nice. Last year I noticed that I couldn't have more than 30 images in a post (which included smilies) so you might have problems later in the year. I just list the books, but give a link to the goodreads list I have as well if anyone is really interested in one of the books.

I've finished Storm Front, updated my list thread, and will spend the rest of my reading time this week trying to catch up on the Iliad group read!

Just finished Black Rain, so now it's on to my first eBook library loan, Viper by Michael Morley.

If I have a problem with the number of images, I'll just have to figure out what I want to do from there.

Anyway, glad you like it so far. I thought it was different to show the covers.

I'm happy to see that members are starting to update their list threads.

Happy Reading Everyone!

I really need to slow down on the acquisition side.

I tried rereading Deryni Rising (originally read it about 30? years ago). I got about 30 - 40 pages into it and it wasn't grabbing me like it did when I was in my 20s. Maybe I'll try again later this year. I have such fond memories of all the Deryni books...

Due to recent events in the Bargains forum, I've had to increase the number of books in my Kindle Freebies Decimation Challenge and add a Harlequin Decimation Challenge to this year's goals. I'm hopeless.

I think I've done something unique by having the covers. But if there is a limit to how many I can have, can I use a second message to continue the list?

Sorry Jon, but its one post per person. I do like your cover idea, though.

I would suggest that if space becomes an issue, you only keep/include the covers of your "five star" or "favorite" reads.

I suppose I could start a new thread and post a link to the new message.
