Here’s a pile of books in my TBR list (of course the list itself is much longer!). From the top down:
1) Unnatural Death, by Dorothy Sayers. A mystery in the Lord Peter Wimsey series.
2) Maisie Dobbs, by Jacqueline Winspear. A mystery set in 1920s London.
3) Oscar and Lucinda, by Peter Carey. Historical fiction set in 19th century London.
4) The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, by Anne Bronte. Classic work of Victorian fiction, by the least-well-known Bronte sister.
5) Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, by Winnifred Watson. 1930s novel about a penniless governess who “lives for a day.”
6) The Book of Air and Shadows, by Michael Gruber. Mystery.
7) Evelina, by Fanny Burney. Another classic.
8) East Lynne, by Ellen Wood. Sensationalist Victorian novel.
9) 740 Park, by Michael Gross. Nonfiction about “the world’s richest apartment building.”
10) No Fond Return of Love, by Barbara Pym. Pym’s works are always a treat.
11) Murder Must Advertise, by Dorothy Sayers. Another Lord Peter Wimsey.
12) Please Excuse My Daughter, by Julie Klam. A memoir.
13) Target Underwear and a Vera Wang Gown, by Adena Halpern. A memoir.
14) Bar Flower, by Lea Jacobs. A memoir.
I’m not going to read all these books in the order listed here; usually, I read according to whatever I feel like, simply because I don’t like having my books in a prescribed order. So what order do you read your TBR pile in?
