Dirty Little Secret #1


Dirty Little Secret is a weekly meme hosted by the lovely ladies at Under the Covers. Every Thursday they ask a question hoping to reveal other bloggers "dirty little secrets"

What book has been sitting in your TBR pile the longest and why haven't you picked it up yet? Or more importantly, will you ever read it since it's been sitting there forever?


 Hmmm... the longest book that I have in my TBR pile is Eragon. I bought it when I was sixteen, tried to read a few pages of it, and quickly put it away for something else. No matter how badly I wanted to read it, I just couldn't get into it at all. Eventually, I gave it to my boyfriend last year and he quickly devoured the whole series. Since then, he's been begging me to give it another try. 

It is now sitting on my To Be Read BookShelf (I have 4 in my room) and I think I will try and give it a go again... one day. Probably not anytime soon though. I've heard it gets better with each book, and my reading taste have grown as I've gotten older, so who knows, I may end up loving it just as much as he does! 

What about you guys? Have any of you read Eragon? What has been sitting on your shelf the longest just begging to be read?

  1. I loved Eragon! I read it when I was 16 and thought it was great :) You have to read it your boyfriend is right about that one! The great thing is that it appeals to a wide audience, my older brother 11 years older loved it and so did my mother and kids love it too. :)
