2014 Movies, TV, and Books (January-March)

[kalient]

Movies and TV seasons, in chronological order. * means I've seen it/read it before, bold means I can't believe I haven't.

January

1. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone* (Because my little sister hadn't seen them.)
   
2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets*
   
3. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban*
   
4. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire*
   
5. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix*
   
6. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince*
7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1*
   
8. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2*
   
   February
   
9. Iron Man* (2008. Because after my sister got through Harry Potter, it was time for The Avengers' movies.)
   
10. The Incredible Hulk* (I was somewhat tempted to skip this one, but I have issues with stuff like that.)
    
11. Iron Man 2*
    
12. Thor* (2011)
    
13. Captain America: The First Avenger* (The fact that a trailer for The Avengers was the post-credits scene sparked a discussion of how far ahead of a movie release you generally get a trailer. This was over a year. That's an absurdly long time.)
    
14. The Avengers*
    
    March
    Nothin'

Books...

January
1. The Stupidest Angel: A Heartwarming Tale of Christmas Terror by Christopher Moore (Book club. Audiobook.)
   
2. Dinner at Antoine's by Frances Parkinson Keyes (Started in November, to tie in with my trip to New Orleans.)
   
3. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone* by J.K. Rowling (Because my little sister started reading it for the first time, and I needed a refresher. I forget how slow it is to get started.)
   
4. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets* by J.K. Rowling
   
5. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban* by J.K. Rowling
   
   February
6. The Possibility by Billie Mandel (Unpublished manuscript.)
   
7. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire* by J.K. Rowling
   
8. The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman (Book club.)
   
9. The Giver by Lois Lowry (Suggested by a client. Another "how have I never heard of this book?" moment. Very powerful.)
   ABANDONED: To Be Sung Underwater by Tom McNeal (Book club. I started very late, found myself totally uninterested, and decided it wasn't worth it. I've been very behind.)
   
10. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix* by J.K. Rowling
    
    March
    
11. American Gods* by Neil Gaiman (Book club.)
    
12. Tigana* by Guy Gavriel Kay (I selected for book club. We don't usually read fantasy, and people struggled with it. Also, I managed to pick the longest of his books, and even the shortest isn't short. Oops.)
    
    That doesn't look like much (only two books in all of March?), but they've been reeeeeeally looooooong books.
