I have a stack of books... I'd like to say they're on the bedside table but actually, they're on the floor/in my bag/on top of my bookcase, variously. However, the problem is the same, I just finished Northanger Abbey (LOVED it! And it was New Book #12 so I also feel virtuous) and now I need to decide what I'm going to read next. Help me?

Take my poll, save me from the tyranny of dragging three books onto the bus with me tomorrow morning?

The Hunger Games! Although, I should warn you that once you start reading it, it is difficult to stop.

Northanger Abbey is fabulous, isn't it?

The nice thing about that is it's a paperback and therefore lighter than e.g. Wolf Hall which is MASSIVE, ugh.

It absolutely is: new favourite Austen, I think. I was completely charmed by it.

Seriously though, I started reading it and then I had to go to the movies so I walked into town reading and sat through the whole movie thinking, 'Wibble wibble Peeta and Katniss wibble'. And then I had to go and buy the sequel the next day.

Northanger Abbey's my favourite Austen usually. It's so wonderfully snarky and fluffy. And I love the female friendships and discussions of reading.
