2011 Book Review
This year I have read 23 books. Most of them were re-reads and crime fiction novels. Though my reading streached out across a few genres including humour, fantasy, crime fiction, literary fiction and classic.
This is the list of novels that I have read:
Fantasy
The Farseer Trilogy (Assassin’s Apprentice, Royal Assassin, Assassin’s Quest) - Robin Hobb
The Blood Countess (Pandora English) - Tara Moss
Storm Front (The Harry Dresden Files) - Jim Butcher
Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman
American Gods - Neil Gaiman
Humour
Preincarnate - Shaun Micallef
The Vesuvius Club - Mark Gatiss
Murder Most Fab - Julian Clary
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams
Crime Fiction
The Mermaid’s Singing - Val McDermid
Wire in the Blood - Val McDermid
The Last Temptation - Val McDermid
The Torment of Others - Val McDermid
Beneath the Bleeding - Val McDermid
Fever in the Bone - Val McDermid
Above Suspicion - Lynda La Plante
The Retribution - Val McDermid
Classics
The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
Treasure Island - Robert Louis Stevenson
Literary Fiction
The Shadow of the Wind - Carlos Ruiz Zafon
The Crimson Petal and the White - Michel Faber
I hope to read a lot more books next year and novels by Terry Pratchett. Recently after seeing the tv adaption of Going Postal have decided to try the Discworld novels again after failing during High school. Probably now that I'm older I will understand it more, like I did with Douglas Adams.
