Shelf Sitters

So anyone who knows me knows that I like to read, and i'm quick at doing so. This fact basically means that I can buy a book and read it that evening. This has caused a slight problem...

Basically I currently have a pile of......16 (had to count) books just sitting on my floor (okay so technically the term should be 'floor sitters') waiting to be read. I have to be in the mindset to read books and I just haven't been recently. But I seem to not be able to walk out of a bookshop without purchasing a book, wether I've heard of it via an article or a film being released, been recommended by a sales assistant, or just liked the cover.

I am going to try and read these books before the end of next month. I would do it by the end of this month but I have exams to revise for in between reading.

I'm going to post reviews of the books as I read them so I hope that anyone who actually reads this will enjoy!

Here's a list of those 16 books;
'Logan's Run' by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson
'The Host' by Stephanie Meyer
