My planned reads for this month: Rebekah Send a noteboard - 01/01/2011 11:36:13 AM
First, finish The Gunseller by Hugh Laurie, which is very funny so far. A spoof of the spy genre, mostly.

Then I'll read my Challenge book for January/February: a Classic I've not yet read. Not sure what it will be, but there are plenty of options on my Kindle.

Actually, the book I'm currently reading qualifies for the parody part of the Genre Challenge, so that's a win. :|

Also will read: The Post Birthday World by Lionel Shriver, and Bridge of Birds by Barry Hughart.

And then whatever else catches my eye.
