My First TBR List

This is my current list of books to read, alphabetically by author's name. The ones with asterisks are books I own but haven't read yet. I am also adding a ^ by those books which are LDS fiction or church-related. My current read is marked in bold. Some books are followed by an "~" with a name, magazine, etc. This is where I got the recommendation. The numbers are Amazon ratings, only included if there are a significant number of reviews.
