my TBR pile topped out at just over 200, but I now have it down to about 140 - still think I'd need a wide-angle lensed camera to get it all in though!
openlib.org are great for e-borrowing and they have suspended all waiting lists til June! (I'm currently reading Dante's "Paradiso", Beckett's "Murphy" and Mary McCarthy's "The Group" on there)

Chrisull and Owlie - yes, 'twas I reading Deep. I started it while visiting Middle Son, and he said I could take it home with me but I said No, I'd pick it up and carry on next time I visited.
Now haha I have no idea when that will be.
My actual TBR pile is not especially big, but there are loads of books on my shelves which I haven't read (they belonged to my Mum - mostly classics; I got rid of the ones I didn't think I'd be interested in, a few months after she died) and loads more which I have but would very happily re-read. I won't join the ongoing list but happy to look at other people's TBRs and suggest a choice. (Does that make sense? I'm a little unclear what it's a list for).

Which TBR pile should it be? I have (ahem) several piles. Should I do a deathmatch to whittle down the 4 piles into 1. Let's not mention the tall bookcase next to the bed either eh?

Perfect is lovely and The Warden is worth reading. White Teeth too.
