The dilemma of choice

There is always that moment of excitement when you finish one book and get ready to start another. My problem is that given a spare couple of minutes I will happily pick up something and as a result there are several books i have started to make in roads into but not yet really got stuck into:

2666 by Roberto Bolano

Headlong by Michael Frayn

Spring on the Oder by Kazakevich

Don Quixote by Cervantes

Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers

Waiting for the Dark, Waiting for the Light by Ivan Klima

Might just number them 1 to 6 and roll the dice and start to get through them. Otherwise there is always the problem this list of half first chapters might be added to making it completely unmanageable.
