Seeing [livejournal.com profile] lowellboyslash's post about book-reading volume reminds me that, given the amount I read while commuting to/from work these days, I think I've got a genuinely good shot at reading 50 books this year. Given that I also want to be posting more often, I figured I should formalize this endeavour, and try and comment on what I read.

I'm not going to do individual reviews for everything I've already done, but I do want to record them all now, so I can keep count. Future updates should have real reviews/criticisms attached. Aren't you excited? I'm excited.


1. The Heir Apparent, by Joel Rosenberg <-- crappy little junk-fantasy novel that I borrowed off my dad's shelf while at home.
2. The Gunslinger, by Stephen King
3. The Drawing of the Three, by Stephen King
4. The Waste Lands, by Stephen King
5. Wizard and Glass, by Stephen King
6. Wolves of the Calla, by Stephen King
7. Song of Susannah, by Stephen King
8. The Dark Tower, by Stephen King
9. The Stars My Destination, by Alfred Bester
10. The Game of Kings, by Dorothy Dunnett
11. Queen's Play, by Dorothy Dunnett
12. The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, by Don Rosa <-- highly recommended!

Hmm. It seems that if I finish The Disorderly Knights by the end of March, then I'll definitely be on track to hit 50. That's kind of cool.

Definitely open to recommendations for the next couple dozen, though. The Books of Ash are on my list, if I can track down copies, but after that I have no particular idea about where to go. I'm really enjoying this string I'm on of only reading really good, high-quality books!
