byslantedlight: (Bookshelf colour (grey853).)
It's been a funny old week so far - I'm actually off day-job work for a very annoying and niggly am-sick-at-home reason, which on the one hand allows me to get on with 10-day-madness work, but on the other hand is frustrating cos they might decide to whip me elsewhere for a few days, where I might not have internet and therefore will lose the vast majority of 10-day-madness work after all - gargh! (Cross fingers for hyper-strong antibiotics!) And of course whether day-job boss believes why I'm off work is a whole 'nother question, cos of the timing of it too (I was off last Friday for 10-day-madness-meeting in London, when all was still just niggly rather than well-I'll-just-ask-the-doc niggly...) Anyway - all of which is my eternally long-winded way of saying: I'm at home and taking a break from 10-day-madness-job, and so it's time for a long-promised (to me) bookpost! Prompted eternally by [livejournal.com profile] caffyolay's book posts, and also this time by [livejournal.com profile] foxcat74's book post!

This is my reading-plan for 2012! (You can click it bigger to see the titles if you're really interested) All the books I've been accumulating over 2011...and, um 2010 and a bit beyond that have been sitting waiting patiently as I get all excited over something else entirely... In fact there have been new additions already since this pic was taken on the 8th of January (see how long I've been planning this post!) Some of you will no doubt recognise some of those books, too... *g*

And have I read any of it, yet? Erm... well I've re-read The Secrets Beneath by Sally Fell, and November by Sebastian, and... *g* Actually I have read one and a half of those from the pile so far: The Night is for Hunting by John Marsden )

Whatcha reading? *g*

Also - it's sort of wishing it was snowing outside - those very fine almost mist-drops that are now and then blown about enough that you can see they're just a bit more substantial, and if only they could they'd be grown-up snow... *g*

ETA - whee - Google thinks I have snow! *vbg*
Does anyone actually have snow?
