Here are some others from my list that are waiting for me on my bookshelf:

* And the Shofar Blew by Francine Rivers
* 'Tis by Frank McCourt
* A Painted House by John Grisham
* Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
* One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Oh, and of course all the wonderful books you ladies sent me for Christmas!! So sweet!!
I also want to read several of the ones you mentioned but here are the ones actually on my shelf waiting for me to pick them up:
Song of Solomon (Toni Morrison)
The Antelope Wife (Louise Erdrich)
The Mermaid Chair (Sue Monk Kidd)
The Other Boelyn Girl (Philippa Gregory)
The Historian (Elizabeth Kostova)
Prodigal Summer (Barbara Kinsolver)
I just realized when typing, that all of those books are by women authors. Weird. That's not on purpose...I read books by men too!
Rach- I also have prodigal summer and song of solomon waiting for me on the shelf! My first list was far from exhaustive when it comes to all the books I want to read. I also want to read Daughter of Fortune, and Bridge to Terebithia. Plus several gift books from fellow BAD girls. AND, I just got a huge order from B and N with many more books I want to read. Looks like 2008 will be a long year with many good books!
This is Josh...
I really want to read 'Language of God' by Collins as well. I can't wait to see how it compares to 'Genome' by Matt Ridley.
JOSH- I have a copy of The Language of God, if you want to borrow it. Just let me know.
Sweet, Thanks Becky! Bring it over next Wednesday. It may take me all semester to finish it since I am taking Educational Law this semester in grad school. Booooring!!!
