    Don't worry - I'm with you. I have a heavy backlog as well. I'm trying not to worry too much about it, because while I'm on a reading spree, I want to stick to it. I keep notes on books as I read them, so I can review them anytime (hopefully)!

    @Aths - thanks for the encouragement. I keep notes too, but I just want to share you know?

    I totally missed your review of Before I Go to Sleep, 3 1/2 stars, I didn't read your review since i'm reading it now but will after for sure.

    So many I can't wait to see what you think, in this order 14, 10, 17, 16.

    I added What Alice forgot recently to my Wishlist.

    So many books, so hard to keep up.

    @Marce - can't wait to hear what you think of Before. Don't forget I am a harsh judge and don't give up 4 (let alone 5) stars easily :) I will try to hurry up with my reviews! I am just over 1/3 of What Alice Forgot. A bit chick-lit-ish right now but we'll see!

    Ah yes being behind on reviews-that is one reason why I am accepting less and less books to review-I want to enjoy reading and posting when I want-I also do not want to feel obligated to finish the bad books.

    @Esme - I hear ya. I have accepted less. I still abandon ARC though if I can't get engaged. I'd still write a review to explain why I couldn't finish.
