50 Books progress for November:
45) The Ask And The Answer, Patrick Ness (the sequel to The Knife Of Never Letting Go, and damn near as good)
46) Graceling, Kristin Cashore (a badass heroine, a feminist-friendly romance that doesn't overwhelm the plot, a truly frightening villain - overall, a good read)
47) Going Bovine, Libba Bray (a road-trip novel, emphasis on the "trip": Cameron is dying of Mad Cow Disease, and starts having visions of fire demons and and an angel who sends him on a quest to save the world. Is it real, or a big hallucination? Does it matter? Very enjoyable book.)
Graphic Novels:
Ex Machina, vol. 1-4
Motel Of The Mysteries, David Macaulay
