My Mountain of Unread Books

This is getting a bit silly now.
I've come to the end of the year and there are 58 books on my 'pending' shelf that I haven't read yet. 20 of those came from FantasyCon. And there are more on my list of books that I want to buy, just as soon as I've read a few more of these....
At the moment I'm racing through NK Jemison's Obelisk Gate, but I haven't yet allowed myself to buy the third in that trilogy, so I may go on to Miracle Brew by Pete Brown (about beer), or Lionheart by Sharon K Penman (Richard I in the Holy Land)…. Or there's Dying Fall by Elly Griffiths (a forensic archaeologist in Norfolk), or Provenance by Ann Leckie, Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner, The Cogwheel Brain by Doron Swade (about Babbage's Difference Engine)….
History, SF, Fantasy, murder mystery with archaeology, real ale - there's a good variety to keep me entertained in the coming months.
