Ok. Maybe if I publish this list, I will actually make headway in getting these read. I apologize for my tardiness to the publishers, publicists, and authors who've been waiting patiently for my review. I let 2009 get away from me, and did not place a high enough priority on these, as they should've deserved. I will do my very best to get these done in the first quarter of 2010.

I requested each and every one of the above, which makes it even worse that I never got around to reading & reviewing them. Well, some were started, and some actually completed, but that doesn't matter, does it?

The rest of my TBR pile are books that I've won, that are just waiting for their turn. I honestly don't know what's taken me so long. I know these are books that I'd like, I've just put them at the bottom of the pile because nobody's expecting or waiting for these reviews. But good books shouldn't just be laying about, they should be read. So here's a list of those, too, so that I get them read!
