It occured to me that I haven’t really been posting consistenly of late. Hopefully, starting from today, I’ll get back on a proper daily schedule.

I thought today I would post a list of the books I’ve read since May, those I’m currently reading, and those in the queue. Some of these I’ve found on my own, or owned and decided to re-read (1), others have been brought to my attention that had been on my “To Read” list (2), and others have been entirely the happy by-product of interacting with one of the most voracious readers I’ve ever known (3).

Of course, this is the list of books; I’ve also been working on several movies. I’ll see if I can post that tomorrow.

*I really want to read it in Spanish (A Orillas del Río Piedra Me Senté y Lloré), since I don’t know Portuguese (Na margem do rio Piedra eu sentei e chorei). It seems more appropriate anyway, since it is set in Spain and France.

**May need to precede this one with other books to fill in the gaps in my knowledge of the mythos.
