Mine was rather modest. Just two books this year (and LOADS of chocolate; yum) - Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey and Mistress of the Empire by Feist and Wurts.

They make me happy.


Huh. It's strange how people's reading progression in the genre varies. Feist & McCaffery were entry level for me. I would have thought you'd read those long ago. It makes me wonder what I have recently stumbled into that others read in their teens or among their first sci-fi/fantasy.

Anyway, I got "In Defense of Sanity" & "The Man Who Was Thursday" by Chesterton, "Suicide of a Superpower" by Buchannan, "New Deal or Raw Deal" by Burt Folsom, "Eagle in the Snow," an historical novel by Breem, and the Onion's sports compilation, "Ecstasy of Defeat."

Also I got the first two seasons of HBO's "The Wire," which as far as I am concerned, should be categorized as some type of literature. Maybe invent a new category if they need to.
