This week, I put my 200th book on my Goodreads to-read list. This list has been gradually growing since I joined Goodreads at the beginning of 2013. It goes down a fair amount over the summers when I have time to visit the library and read a lot of books. The rest of the year, it just grows bigger and bigger.
In honor of reaching the magic 200, I thought I would look through the list and see what the top ten books are that I want to read as soon as humanly possible.

- The Midnight Queen by Sylvia Izzo Hunter (Added to TBR: August 16, 2014. Why? Because I love books about magic. And look how pretty that cover is!)
- The Year of Reading Dangerously by Andy Miller (Added to TBR: November 16, 2014. Why? Because I love books about books. Seriously love them. There are a lot of them on my TBR list.)
- Mail Obsession: A Journey Round Britain by Postcode by Mark Mason (Added to TBR: November 24, 2015. Why? Because Walk the Lines by this author was one of my absolute top reads of 2015, and I was ecstatic to hear he had a new book coming out.)
- Wonderland Creek by Lynn Austin (Added to TBR: October 15, 2015. Why? Because this is one of my favorite Christian authors, and the main character is a bookworm. How could I resist?)

- The Road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson (Added to TBR: August 29, 2015. Why? Because I've read just about every book Bill Bryson has ever written. This one went on the TBR as soon as I heard of its existence.)
- Tooth and Claw by Jo Walton (Added to TBR: January 27, 2014. Why? Because I like dragons.)
- The Grammar of God: A Journey into the Words and Worlds of the Bible by Aviya Kushner (Added to TBR: October 6, 2015. Why? Because a book about comparing the original Hebrew of the Bible to our English translations is completely fascinating to me.)
- Shady Characters: The Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols & Other Typographical Marks by Keith Houston (Added to TBR: September 5, 2013. Why? Because I'm a grammar nerd and proud of it!)
- The Late Starters Orchestra by Ari L. Goldman (Added to TBR: June 17, 2014. Why? Because I've always wanted to learn how to play the violin, and this book may just inspire me to finally do so!)
