I've read seven! Fight Night is on my wish list and I'll look into 21 things.

I read Fight Night -it is terrific!

I've read 5 - loved Five Little Indians, Jonny Appleseed and Butter Honey Pig Bread and even Fight Night (I'm not a huge Toews fan so this was a pleasant surprise). I was underwhelmed by The Marrow Thieves. I just got State of Terror from the library so we'll see how that goes.

Now to go look up the rest.... thanks for posting!

I love Louise Penny and I've read The Madness of Crowds.
State of Terror is on my TBR for this year!

I'm glad Five Little Indians is the top of the list. Well deserved!

I hadn't planned to read State of Terror, but after reading a joint interview with Penny and Clinton I think I'll add it to my list.

I've only read 3 of these, Jonny Appleseed, The Madness of Crowds and Butter, Honey, Pig, Bread. They were all excellent and a couple more are in my reading plans for the coming year. However, I have to point out that this is a list composed of best sellers, not necessarily best reading.

I’m 100 pages into State of Terror and I really dislike this book. Cliched and poorly written. Do I go on or pearl rule this dreck?

I've only read Five Little Indians, but I really enjoyed it and found it an insightful read. A powerful read.
