Throwback Thursday 2012 Review

This is a great feature that Melissa at My World...in words and pictures has been doing for a while which looks at those wonderful books that are ALREADY on my shelves that we haven't got round to reading yet. I've spent quite a few Thursdays looking at books I own but haven't read and I thought it would be fun to look back over those books I've highlighted and see how good I've been at actually reading them! Last year I only read two books, but since I introduced the monthly poll I fully expect 2012 to be better!

2011 Summary: 38 Books - 12 Read (+2 Throwbacks from 2011)
Getting better! I still have a lot of books on my TBR pile as well as Throwbacks that I haven't got round to reading yet. Next year I plan to continue my polls at the start of each month as a lot of the Throwbacks reads have been my favourite of the month and make a nice change from recent releases on the blog. 

So one bonus read for me - which of the unread books above do you want me to read next? Leave a comment and I'll see if I can read the most popular one next month as well as the usual poll next Thursday!
