My Answer: Wow! I own Any Given Doomsday - and it is near the top of my TBR pile, but I haven't read any of these!

I haven't read any of them either. The list is on your Home Tab on the right hand side - maybe you have that feature switched off so it doesn't show.
I was shocked when I hadn't read but one title off this list, too! Thanks for the comment on my answer... I'm sure your sister will get hooked on the Twilight books. I wouldn't say the other three are as good as the first, but it's still an interesting series!
I haven't read any on this list, either. I added Any Given Doomsday to my list, too - hope to hear your take on it!
I've read 2 out of the 10. I would like to read 1 more - The Graveyard Book - though.
Yup, take a look at your PBS wish list. In the book description, you'll see a white exclamation point surrounded by a gray circle. Put your mouse over that circle, and your place in line will show up! I take a look at your wish list whenever I'm getting ready to post some books, just in case you want something I'm ready to send to a new home. :-)
Actually you have more hope of getting the book when there's a long line waiting for it. That means it's a popular book and will have many copies listed into the system. What can be bad is when you're the only one wanting a book--like me in many cases on my wish list--because it means the book isn't very popular, and it may be a looooooooong time before you get it!
I have read The Graveyard Book which I loved and Eclipse which I found only so-so.
Any Given Doomsday came just this past week from the LT ER so I will have to read it pretty soon.
I will be anxious to read your reveiw of Any Given Doomsday. My TBR list is so long that I am sure you will get to it before I do. :D
I'm glad I'd read and reviewed two on the list, some months I wouldn't have read any because they're just not to my taste. Guernsey and Edgar Sawtelle are two excellent stories. I will also be reading Dewey as I finally won a copy. Yahoo! My post is up.
