Ok, so the last time I updated my book list was in July... I've read a lot of books since then. I'm just way behind in updating.

Geist (Book of the Order, #1)
author
Ballantine, Philippa

A protagonist in her 30’s? Who smokes? Awesome! Now if only she were more like-able. The support characters do a lot to make up for that fact though. I found myself ( Read more... )

The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible By A. J. Jacobs ( Read more... )

Tales from the Spaceport Bar
Edited by George H Scithers

This collection of short stories had several that I'd read before, but it was still a great collection of tales all set in bars of various types, both fantastic and not. It was perfect bedtime reading.

Myth Adventures
by Robert Lynn Asprin

This is a book club edition of the first 4 books of the Myth series (Another Fine Myth, Myth Conceptions, Myth Directions, and Hit or Myth).  As might be apparent from the titles, these are punny books.  It's the story of an apprentice wizard whose master is killed, and ends up under the tutelage of a ( Read more... )

Peter & Wendy (aka Peter Pan)
By J.M. Barrie

Oh the things you could get away with in a children's novel 99 years ago. Most of Tink's lines were "You're an ass" there was a lot of death, and a mention of orgys! Aside from that I really enjoyed

The Scarlet Pimpernel
By Baroness Emmuska OrczyClassic #9 this year. Sadly kinda predictable, but I ( Read more... )

Star Trek Terok Nor: Dawn of the Eagles
By SD Perry & Britta Dennison

The last 9 brutal years of the Cardassian occupation of Bajor, and the part Odo plays is huge. It's nice to have this aspect of the story filled in.

Halfway done with the 50 book challenge. Of course I'm now at a 8/25 or 32% classics rate. I am in the middle of the Scarlet ( Read more... )
