June 2010 Wrap-Up: Books and Reading

Ye Grande Olde TBR(e) Challenge Update

I started June with 271 unread books sitting around my house. And I ended with … *drumroll* … 269! Holy cow, y’all! Despite not reading as much as I would have liked this month, I still racked up negative numbers, without purging! All kinds of accomplishments this month, I guess. :)

…anyways, let’s take a look at the breakdown:

Neutral books – Read, but don’t affect the TBR pile

Audiobooks – Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer
Read but not owned – Under Heaven by Guy Gavriel Kay – Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris – Runaways, Vol. 1: Pride and Joy by Brian K. Vaughan – Marvel 1602 by Neil Gaiman – Eternals by Neil Gaiman – Embroideries by Marjane Satrapi – Y: The Last Man, Vol. 6: Girl on Girl by Brian K. Vaughan
Acquired and read – Lavinia by Ursula K. LeGuin
Re-reads – Juniper by Monica Furlong – Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris

Changes to the TBR pile

Cleared from my TBR pile (huzzah!) – The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender – The Transformation of Bartholomew Fortuno by Ellen Bryson – Blood Feud by Alyxandra Harvey – Tongues of Serpents by Naomi Novik

Added to my TBR pile (shame!)
– The Ghost Belonged to Me by Richard Peck	– Stealing Fire by Jo Graham
Non-TBR Acquisitions – The Hold Life Has by Catherine J. Allen (I read this for a college anthropology class but didn’t keep my copy at the time.)
