What did you read in January? Tim Send a noteboard - 31/01/2010 11:16:05 PM
Somehow I managed to read eight books this month. I almost made it nine, but then I was too busy/lazy* to get started on Things Fall Apart, so that'll have to be my first book in February.

*Delete as appropriate.

  • Clues to Creation in Genesis– P.J. Wiseman
  • God's High Calling for Women– John MacArthur, Jr.
  • Know Why You Believe– Paul E. Little
  • Matter– Iain M. Banks
  • Death Mask– Jim Butcher
  • Pretty Monsters– Kelly Link
  • Dead Hands– Lawrence M. Friedman
  • Anthropology– Dan Rhodes


I think it would be nice if we posted our actual (as opposed to planned) January reads on here, and then discussed what we thought of other people's. So let's do that. Yes.
Vigilantibus non dormientibus jura subveniunt.

—Nous disons en allemand : le guerre, le mort, le lune, alors que 'soleil' et 'amour' sont du sexe féminin : la soleil, la amour. La vie est neutre.

—La vie ? Neutre ? C'est très joli, et surtout très logique.
