Over the last few days I've taken steps to replenish the TBR pile, ordering the following:
Julia Keller - A Killing in the Hills
Helgason Hallgrimur - The Hitman's Guide to Housecleaning
Nick Quantrill - Broken Dreams
Paul Johnston - The Silver Stain
Joseph Kanon - The Good German
Edward Wilson - The Darkling Spy
Victor Gischler - Go Go Girls of the Apocalypse
Ben Pastor - Liar Moon
Roger Smith - Wake Up Dead
C.H.B. Kitchin - Crime at Christmas
Christa Faust - Money Shot
Darragh McManus - Even Flow
Of course, there's still stuff on the existing TBR, including the books backing up on the Kindle. And I still have to order my Liverpool reads. I've also ordered about the same number of non-fiction books. It's good to have choice, right? The plan is to work my way through this lot between now and the New Year.

You're a lucky man.
Do you finish every book you start? I only finish about 30%.
I don't finish every book I start, but probably over 90%. I try to buy books that I think I will like. There is experimenting going on, and a very large chunk of the books I've read over the past three years are by new-to-me authors, but I do a bit of research before parting with cash. And I buy nearly all the books I read, rather than lend from a library.
Rob - That's a very nice lot you've got there. I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of them. And I completely agree with you about doing research before purchasing a book. I'm almost always more likely to do some 'background checking' before buying a book than I am before borrowing one.
