On My Wish List is hosted by Book Chick City. Bloggers spotlight books we have on our wishlists. Books we really want to read, but haven't had the chance to buy yet. Old-books, new-books, un-released books, so long as we plan to buy them. A Mr. Linky is provided so we can keep up with each others selections each week.
