well there goese that plan
So I've totaly failed my plan to not buy books before I read all the ones on my list, and went and started a new sci-fi series. So from now on this will just be a record of books I intend to read and books I have read this year.
I did however finish Smith's "a very short intro to the russian revolution" it was quite excelent! for such a short book it's very thorough and didint leave much out. Of course this meant it mainly just offered an acount of what happened without much analysis, but he managed to make it not to dry. If you feel the need to read a book on the Russian revolution, but dont want to read a mother of a book, I recomend this one.
I also read Paoloni's "brisingr" this is the 3rd part to a Teen fantasy series. It is very obvious that it's a teen fantasy book, that's ok by me though I quite liked it, you would need to reed the other to books to read this one.
Now the books that broke the resolution. all by John Ringo "hymn before battle" "gust front" and im curently reading the 3rd book of the 9 book series " when the devil dances" this is a cheesy sci-fi series about alliens invading the earth. The humans are allied with these other pacifist aliens who dont have earths intrests in mind. THe series is action packed and light, I quite enjoy it.
