Your plan seems like an excellent one too!

I'm not sure I would be brave enough to use a random number generator - I have too many heftly tomes and books that need just the right moment - but I have picked out a hundred from my own TBR to read or ditch asap.

Hopefully this will widen my reading selections a bit, rather than just letting me be lazy and only pick up the books that I can see. Good luck with your reading too. Needs must, it seems.

Even though my books are all in one house now, I'm still not convinced I'll be able to find them all; I'll just have to hope that any books that do come up are easy ones to locate. Good luck with your reading and your studies! Being away at university isn’t really condusive to TBR pile reading, is it?

It seemed like a good way of varying my reading by chance rather than choice. I'll definitely keep an eye on what you come across and I hope we both discover some great new books.

I already have my TBR list on my blog so all I have to do is add numbers and I'm ready to go...I'm going to go do that right now! Thanks for the great idea and I'll visit often to see what your lucky dip brings you. Oooh, I think the TBR Lucky Dip idea is fantastic!

If I had access to my entire TBR pile while I am university, I would totally join you. I'm also doing the Victorian Literature Challenge, but those I can read on ny iPad.
