Finally updated my list. I was so behind (my shelfari is even worse). XD

Finished:
Daughters of Terra and Shards of the Mind by Theolyn Boese, Furies of Calderon and Academ's Fury by Jim Butcher, and Volume 1 of the Cirque du Freak manga. ^_^

The Jim Butcher series is really good so far (thank you library sales).

I finally got Midnight's Daughter (Karen Chance) in the mail!
Also, I decided to up my goal. I'm almost at 50 so I brought it up to 150 books and 45,000 pages.

@Rainbows: Midnight Never Come is a political fantasy novel, set in Elizabethan England, which intertwines Elizabeth's court above, with the fae court below (I tried to surmise the description on Goodreads ^_^). There are also some romantic aspects as well. I thought the premise was really interesting, but it fell a little short in areas, for me (the story took quite some time to really get moving, I felt, and there were odd pieces put in that I felt didn't really mesh well with the rest of the storytelling mechanics).

Ah, I think I should seriously consider doing this challenge this year. I have so many books on my shelf that I haven't read yet, and this would be a great way to put a dent in them.

<dashes off to examine her shelves>

Edit: Well! I have so many unread books on my shelves already, I'm going to have to go for 100 books this year if I want to read anything that I don't already own!
I compiled my list in my journal, here: http://www.menewsha.com/forum/blogs/...challenge.html

Hmm, I don't think I can swing 50 books a year. Seems a little too much consider my busy schedule, but I guess that's why this is a "challenge" and I certainly will try. I don't think I'll count the mangas I read, though (nothing against several posters I just saw including them!), simply because i read them online and don't really keep track of the individual volumes. :|

But this does sound very fun. :D

@Suzhi: Yup, post a list of books (or just a blank list that you'll fill in later) and edit it as the year goes by. xD
Then tell us if there's a book you really liked. We'll jump on it like hungry wolverines. :rofl:

@Sakoya: I made a separate list for my manga and comics because they added to the book count but not enough to the page count. :/

dream, i'm both amused and a little confused that you used wolverines, but not wolves. :3

sakoya, some people do a page count of the books in their list, but dream is excluding manga page count from her main list, probably for one of two reasons.
manga are usually around 150-200 pages, about half the length of your standard book, so unless you're counting them as half of a book, they mess around with your page count to book ratio.
they also don't usually list the page numbers which makes it hard to tell exactly how many pages it is for the page count.
but remember, this list is entirely governed by your own rules. it's just a way to get you to read more. so you may list just the book and author, or you can go entirely gung-ho and make it pretty and organized precisely, like some of us did. XD


guuyyyyssss.
i finished my first book of the year.
volume 1 of goong. x3
(someone kick my butt into reading more again.)

also, i brought the friend who is visiting with us to the local half price bookstore.
we tried to use it to get books to partial series we have which are out of print and whatnot, but we also managed to get a few books outside of those series.
i wanted to get the first book of the dune series, but they didn't have it. had several copies of nearly all of the rest of the series, if not all of them, but not one of the first. i cried a little.

anyway, i got artemis fowl 2-4 (i had them in hard cover, but i wanted them in paperback. don't ask. xp), airman by colfer, the first book of the gideon trilogy, gothic! a short story collection (mostly got it for neil gaiman and garth nix
), time stops for no mouse SIGNED (i had the second book of the hermux tantamoq series, but not the first, so now i just need the last two. >_>), and "the science of philip pullman's his dark materials" because i'm JUST THAT NERDY. ._.;

anyway, i'm still looking for the last two books of remnants, the last three books of t*witches, and the three AvALon books they printed that i didn't get before they stopped printing the series altogether. :c
as glad as i am that seven seas picked it up again to reprint them and finish the second part of the series, i still want as many of the original ones as i can get.
these are going to be hard to find since they just printed less and less as the series went on. ;_______;

now i've got to figure out where the other half price book stores in the area are. :/

goodgod, i don't think i've written a post this long since... well, it's been a while. D|

So I just finished Arrows of the Queen by Mercedes Lackey. After I sat there and just held the book for a few moments, looking at it, thinking about it, flipping through the pages, and attempting to return to real life (a must after a very good book), I zoomed straight to the library's website in order to reserve the two books that follow. The second one is currently unavailable, and all the copies in all the branches (a whopping two) are checked out. D: But I neeeeeed it. LIKE NOW. So hopefully it will be back soon. Or maybe I'll find a copy at Half-Price Books.

Also, I ened to update my list, because I'm three books behind. But the information about two of those books it saved on the computer at my mom's house. :c

I've been futzing over my list, but I think I've got it about settled now. I'm 8 books short of 100, but I think I'll leave those slots open for now, so that I'll have a little space for recommendations and surprises. Also, I think it's quite possible that some of the books on my list might get kicked out once I actually start them—I have a lot of random spirituality and psychology books that I got from my mom and my sister, and I'm not sure if I actually want to read them or not, but I'm going to give them a try.

In making my list, I also discovered that I am in the middle of ten different books right now, and last night I foolhardily started yet another! I have them all sitting in a stack by my reading chair, and it's rather intimidating. Thankfully, about half of them are non-fiction, so I ignore and return to those more easily than novels. Still! I've got so much to read, what am I still doing on the computer?! Haha!

@Iltu: I used to read a lot of Mercedes Lackey, so that title sounds familiar, but I can't remember if I've read it or not. What is it about?

It's the first one she wrote (I think) in the Valdemar series, about the Herald named Talia. Ring any bells?

@ tirethminet - I loved Goong back in the beginning books but as the series has continued on I've gotten more and more annoyed with it. But I love the art.

I finished two books today.
Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan (looved it. I'm excited to read the whole series now). And Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein. I never read any of his poems when I was a kid and a friend told me I should. I loved them all. Very odd stuff he wrote about.

Ugh, I just finished another Diana Gabaldon book. It's my own fault, of course, but I've always hated books written in the first person, and I decided that I would sit down and read a good one to get rid of my bias. Anyway, now I feel compelled to read the whole series.

Quote:
7. An Echo in the Bone by Diana Gabaldon

Another Diana Gabaldon book. I do enjoy her style of storytelling, but I am tired of saying "her writing's improved since last book", like saying "oh yay! have a cookie" for every wobbling step. She's back to her old habits of not being able to craft a proper villain. It's all or nothing with her. Being very careful not to post any spoilers, it's like, who's more sympathetic, a Diana Gabaldon villain or Hitler? Well, hmm. At least Hitler liked dogs. Thank goodness I appear to be caught up now, and though I had been curious about her John Grey suspense series, I won't touch them any time soon.
Not much time to chat today. Maybe I can find another little book of funny poems for my next read. Just, definitely not another 800 pager of escapist fiction. Just. Not.

Yeah, I don't like being in the middle of so much at once either. I just finished one of them this morning though. (Dragondrums by Anne McCaffery.) 1 down, 99 to go. ^__^

That sounds familiar. Is that the one where she gets rescued from her terrible family by one of those special horses, right at the beginning? (It's been so long, I've forgotten what the horses are called :0 )

Chexala - Your reading my favorite series by Anne McCaffery! The Harper Hall books are some of her best writing (my opinion) some of her other stuff just...seems so...serious. And I never connected to any of her other characters like I did with Menolly (sp?).
