That's 14 books. Hmm, I guess I have some more reading to do. :) How many have you read?
I've read 25. Not too bad. Several are on my list to read, others, I will probably never read. A pretty varied list. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteI think it's nicely varied selection, too, but there are some probably won't ever read either.
Delete14 is a good amount! And yay for the Outlander books! (Even if you've just read the first one so far, lol.)
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
