I always mention my addiction to books. I never fully explain the extent of my problem. So I thought that the books that I've read since the 1st of September would be a fantastic 'Thursday Thirteen' on account of the fact that I'm on my 13th book so far this month!!! I have a tendancy to read as many as books by the same author as I can which is why you will see the same authors in the list. I'd have written a list of my favourite authors, but that would have to be a list of 60 odd. I am an addict and I either need help or a life!
1…'A Game of Thrones' - by George R.R. Martin. Its the first in an epic series of fantasy books, all knights and honour and intrigue and politics. I was hooked on the first page and went on to also read...
2...'A Clash of Kings', Book two by George R.R. Martin.
3...'A Storm of Swords: Steel and Snow', Part ONE of book three!!!(George R.R. Martin again!)
4...'A Storm of Swords: Blood and Gold', Part TWO of book three!!!(and again with the George R.R Martin!)
5...(last one by George R.R. Martin!) 'A Feast for Crows', Book four!
6...'The Killing Floor' by Lee Child. Am loving the protaganist in his books, rough, manly, and addictive!
7...'Tripwire' by Lee Child.
8...'Echo Burning' by Lee Child.
9...'Going Postal' by Terry Pratchett. I LOVE this man, I want to be his stalker. His writing actualy makes me laugh out loud frequently.
10...'Priestess of the White' by Trudi Canavan. Having read her first trilogy last month, I had to read this!
11...'Shadowfall' by James Clemens. The next book in the series goes into print next month, so I wanted to recap on the first book!
12...'Proven Guilty' by Jim Butcher. I had to order this one from amazon as it doesn't come out in the UK til next year, but I've already read the others he's written.
13...'The Enemy' by Lee Child. But I'm only half way thru this one!

Lee Child Ive heard is fantastic!
Great TT!
I also went through GRRM in a week. I had to go immediately back to the store and buy the rest after I finished A Game of Thrones. This list is actually a relief, because I've read about as many books so far this month and I was beginning to think I was on this weird obsessive binge. It's just the way some of us are!
great list!thanks for stopping by at my blog
