apartmentcat's "Booky Goodness 2 - The Moderns"

Add to my lists | Print this list

Books I’m itching to get stuck into.

I decided to divide my "Booky Goodness" list into two parts, because it was just becoming a little unwieldy and scary.

This list also includes the non-fiction.

This list could be added to, at any time, without notice! Depending on how I feel. =)

See "Booky Goodness 1 – The Classics" for the Classics.
