On the Shelf: new book haul (ramblings about books)

I recently got a haul of books from a friend who is moving into a new smaller apartment and now my floor is filled with stacks of amazing stories. How am I going to decide what to read first?
 
Some of them are ones that I've read before but am excited to browse through again, like A Thousand Splendid Suns, and the travel anthology A Woman Alone: Travel Tales from Around the Globe. Others are ones I’ve had on my mental to-be read list, but I have never had a chance to get my hands on a copy. For example, Interpreter of Maladies and The Effect of Living Backwards. One of the things I frequently miss about living in an English-speaking country is access to a big public library. Because I live away from an English-speaking market, it’s often hard to find books that I want when I want to read them, even in the bookstore. Of course, that means I do a lot of reading on my Kindle! And if I have to have something in dead-tree version, I can often order it from Book Depository. Otherwise, though, I read whatever materializes on my book shelf.

NaNoWriMo is upon us! I wrote a short blog post for my coworking space's blog about how I got started with NaNo and how I think that NaNo write-ins capture the spirit of coworking. Take a peek! 

(And if you've never heard of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), it is an awesome creative challenge. Check it out at nanowrimo.org.)
